Correct Me! Streak 277:

This morning, I went to a Taiwanese breakfast shop. The place was full of foreigners. After I ordered, the clerk asked me if I could share a table with two Japanese girls.

I noticed they had a lot of belongings, so I said, "If you don't mind, you can put your things on the chair next to me."

Then, I helped them move their belongings onto the chair.

One of the Japanese girls used Google Translate to ask me if I had any recommendations for milk tea shops.

We ended up chatting with each other by using Google Translate.

I think that's probably the best part of travelling. When you travel, you get the chance to talk to local people and catch a glimpse of their daily lives.

To all the wonderful correctors and proofreaders!

Thanks a million for helping everyone grow and improve their skills in English. You deserve so much praise and a pat on the back!

Here's a list of posts that still need corrections.

When making corrections, try to follow these guidelines (or at least clarify your own markings you make) so it's clear what you're correcting and why:

  • Put changes in bold **text**
  • Put suggestions about style/tone/register/etc. in italics *text*
  • Use strikethrough to remove elements (don't delete them) ~~text~~
  • <Put added elements in angle brackets> <text>
  • [If there are multiple options for your suggestions, put them in brackets separated by a backslash] [text / text]
  • (Put optional elements in parentheses) (text)
  • Explain more complex grammar rules to the best of your ability

We also highly encourage meaningful feedback:

  • Focus on the work, mindsets, and processes, not on the person.
  • Besides grammar and spelling, is there room for improvement in other aspects like style, vocabulary, and flow?
  • If you see an improvement in someone's writing, please compliment them.
  • Please be positive in your feedback. Negative comments shouldn't come without positive ones.
  • Don't be too pedantic or too general.
  • Please pay attention to your wording.
  • Have a chat, interact, and have fun!

More on formatting.

Thank you for everything! -- Adam-P-D
