I am no expert in English but still there are some obvious mistakes in Long English text in tour #1:
Quote: |
The official name of this country is the United Kingdom of Great Britain.
This may or may not be true, but it is certainly true that the land and climate in Great Britain have a notable lack of extremes.
It has no active volcanoes, and an earth tremos which does no more...
|
I think it should be "tremor" there (or - "tremors which do no more...").
In Medium text:
Quote: |
... to eat much fat is bad for our health.

Juri, we would also like to know how the 3 different levels of difficulty are scored. Maybe you could update the rules page when you have some time, please |

Yes, certainly, rules will be updated.
Now there is a text translation from Russian on English language.
I hope, tomorrow translation will be finished. |

Medium:
It is modified food, which is cheaper than ordinary one.
First, we should eat less fat, particularly saturated fat.
Long:
The flag of the United Kingdom, known as the Union Jack, is made up of three crosses.
...1st George...
Apostrophes at the end of the text seem to be unusual - should be corrected too. |

The sentence seems to be unnecessary:
As a national emblem of Scotland, thistle in their buttonhole.
The word 'was' is missing somewhere, probably after 'thistle':
As a national emblem of Scotland, thistle apparently first used in the 15th century as a symbol of defence.
These sentences sound a bit unlogical to me:
St.David, a 6th-century monk and bishop, the patron saint of Wales. The day is regarded as the national holidаy of Wales...

The participant is disconnected before finding-out of circumstances.
Thanks for the message. |

Sorry for that, MIK doesnt exist, its me, it was just a joke that i wanted to try. I used a program which makes macros like excel's but using keystrokes and so and i made one with the text. You can erase the account if you want and sorry |

Thanks for honesty and frankness.
I shall remove your result.
I think, it will be fair.
How much quickly you print?
Join competitions.
We have not enough Englishmen.
Are always glad to representatives of Foggy Albion. |

That's more realisitic , and i like your honesty, it looked too suspect not to post it in the forum, and now Urikor tries to figure out how to improve the security of the site, i think so . |

You can make nothing against that program that i used, it makes keystrokes just if a person did it normally, it can even record mouse movements. No security can detect that, its like a robot typing on the keyboard |

I was looking at Julys championship and i am very surprised that the ten people that won have more total result than the total sum of the 6 rounds. I suppose I have forgot something but I don't know what, so please tell me |

Well, I can type now, at a lower speed because of the gypsum, I cannot move the knuckle so well and I have difficulties with some letterslike t, or words containing T(uppercase) , but the speed si coming well and I have made some progress typing more accurately, because I type slower . |

It is assured, that in due course the hand will work better.
I had a similar problem.
Time is necessary to restore functionality of joints. |

I'm not sure is it a good idea to type while in gypsum, or not
But, surely, slow typing - should be good to make less mistakes
When your gypsum shall be off, typing will be very useful in "adapting" and developing the hand. Good luck, Laston. _________________ http://klava.tel быстрая справка, http://www.liveinternet.ru/community/faq_avtandiline/post153540114/ Амишка (AMi) и ФАВТ |
