I need help to figure out where to add semicolons to the following sentences or to see if they are already correct



1. Rebecca and John went to the concert they both love Cajun music.

2. As a girl, I did not like fishing it is now my favorite pastime.

3. The enlisted salior watched the officer drill the new recruits.

4. Willie is going to the doctor because his ear hurts.

5. Tina walked through the park snow began to fall.

6. I bought the mittens for my daughter, her hands are always cold.

7. Adark sky and rumbling thunder are clear signs that a storm is near.

8. When Ruth's car ran out of gas she called for help on her cellular.

1) concert;

5) park;

6) daughter;



You need a semicolon when you have two independent clauses; an independent clause can stand by itself as it is a complete sentence.

the rest of your answers are correctI need help with 10 english problems where to add semicolons?
Well, I'm not going to do your homework for you, but I'll be glad to help you learn about semicolons. A semicolon is used to separate two independent clauses that are closely related and therefore can be properly included in the same sentence. You've done #2, #3, #4, #7, #8, #9, and #10 correctly. Look carefully at these and use them as examples to help you figure out the others. Each independent clause could stand alone as a separate sentence; that's your clue as to where to put the semicolon.

Can you tell me these names in french?

haha. well thats all i guess. if you could give me the name in english and french please =]Can you tell me these names in french?
I can't give you all the answers....but



Chris would be Christophe.

Jackie would be Jacqueline.

Angila would be Angilie.

Anna would be Anne.

Jillian would be the same...Jillian.

(if a woman....Jillianne)

Jean would be Jean.



For some others...

Karie would be the same...but it is "kahr-REE" in French.

Jason would be the same...but it is "jah-SOH" in French.

Lauren would be the same...but it is "lahr-RUH" in French.

Lindsey is untranslatable...so it is the same, but you pronunce it

"leehnd---SAY" in French.

Randy is the same...but it is "rrahn-DEE" in French.

Cam is the same...but it is "CAH" in French.

Kristen is the same...but it is "krrees--TEH" in French.

Russel is the same...but it is "rruh--SEHL" in French.



When you pronounce endings in -an, -en, or -in, or -on, nasalize the "n" so that the "n" is in the nose and not out your mouth.



That's all I can do but hope it helps.Can you tell me these names in french?
Names are names. They don't translate. If you're Billy Jim Bob in English, you're Billy Jim Bob in French.Can you tell me these names in french?

Merry Christmas!Can you tell me these names in french?
Well the first answer isn't quite right.

For instance William is Guillaume in french.

I don't know all the names on your list but I'll see what I can do.

Also try searching for an online translator, there are some free ones.



nicole - is the same just pronounced differently



tori - is short for victoria which is the same but pronounced differently but tori would probably be the same



david - is the same just pronounced differently



ruth - is the same



jean - is the same just pronounced differently



megan - same pronounced different



jamie - same



jillian - I think it's the same too and pronounced differently



anna - same



joey - short for joseph which is pronounced differently so probably the same



dom - is short for dominic and is probably the same like tori %26amp; joey



tim - short for timothy like tori, joey, and dom



chris - depends if it's Christopher or Christine, but probably like tim %26amp; the other shortened names. Christine is actually Christiane in french. And Christopher is Christophe



jackie- short for Jaquelyn so the same



angila - is angela and is the same
i think they're kind of all the same but i'll try,...

  • We need more women into umpire youth sports?

    I know there some but we don't have a lot. I was able to do the states this year first time umpiring babe ruth fast pitch softball. i was about to do 18u tournament and 12u tournament. I am going to see two e-mails from my two uic i work with.



    Keith is the one i did baseball the most for

    Ed is the one i did softball for.



    "Chris,



    I am so happy to hear that Ed used you in the States! That is a great experience and a big confidence booster! Don't worry about not being able to help me next year. I'm just happy that you are staying busy with Ed. He is a real good friend of mine and speaks very highly of you! I am doing 16U regionals this weekend in Plymouth. Should be fun. You have a great summer Chris and keep in touch!



    Keith"



    Dang i already delete the other one. but he told me He heard great things about me this year and he also said in all caps that i am a "GOOD UMPIRE" and i am top of his list next year.



    the only thing i need to improve on his being louder.



    So ladies and guys keep trying i want to seem more ladies out there. Keep your dreams going. you get great comments like this above. Its a great feeling, I know its not really a question i just wanted to share my thoughts and don't give up keep trying.



    I was told the other year i couldn't make easy calls, or i didn't know strike zone etc... This is proven wrong big time.We need more women into umpire youth sports?
    Respect. I want to umpire when I stop playing for sure. I've been catching for 8 years now so I have a pretty good idea of a reasonable strike zone and I know the ASA/NSA rules very well. Whenever we play, the female umpires are much better than the men (not to say all male umpires are bad, we have had some good ones). They have a more consistent, resonable strike zone and never make ridiculous calls. Thanks for doing what you do! Hoping to join you someday!

    I'm looking for some obscure band recommendations...got any?

    I have thousands of CDs/vinyls, but so you can get an idea of my taste in music (and so I don't get a long list of bands I already have), here are some of the artists that I have on my computer. Like I said, I have a lot of music so please try to be as obscure as possible with your suggestions. Thank you!

    Are you ranting? Yeah your kid is going to get picked on and he has a hughe space to fill to live up to the potintial of his name, but do you love him? So what's the gruff? He's your child and your choice, at eightteen if he wants to change it he will if he thinks it defines him and fits him completely he won't but don't get so worked up over such a small thing as this. Use the energy that you spent on these names for something more usefull, like how the next time someone critisis the names your going to turn it to a complement, "Yes we know his name is unusual but isn't it pretty? We love the way it roles off of our tongue." GL!Why do people names their kids these names?
    wow! you really put alot of time into this question! LOL

    i personally like some of the names - and i'd just name your kid whatever you want - if they don't like it later in life they can either change it or pick a nickname they like better!
    HOW THE HELL DID YOU MANAGED TO WRITE MORE THAN 1000 WORDS? I'VE BEEN TRYING TO DO THAT AND I CAN'T BECAUSE THE LIMIT IS 1000 WORDSWhy do people names their kids these names?
    I have no problem with the names you chose, my son's middle name is Xane! I get alot of comments on his name, Angel Xane, but I don't care what people say, that is his name.
    Please remember that your child will have to live with the

    name you give him/her. Don't get too exotic or they'll be

    creating their own nickname,and the one you spent so much

    time choosing will be nothing more than an unused form

    of identification on official documents. In other words,it doesn't hurt to be a little conventional in this area. It may spare them years of torment on the playground. Kids can be

    cruel.



    As for the celebrities you list,they don't even live on the same planet as the rest of us. They're all a little odd,I think.Why do people names their kids these names?
    It must have taken you a very long time to type all those names. Some of them I liked a lot others I feel sorry for the child. Just like I feel sorry for your future children on the names you have chosen for them. Their father will have a say in the matter maybe he will have some better names for his children.



    How would you like to go through life with a name no one could pronounce much less spell. I don't think you child will like it either. I think it will be hard for him to get a job since the boss wouldn't know how to pronounce his name.
    because they r famous and like to be known for something out of the ordinary that causes attention



    how much time did you spend researching these names
    The names you pick only matter to you and your significant other! Also your looking at famos childrens names, as if their parents dont get enough attention, here is one other way! The crazier the name the more he/she is talked about! Just ,my opinion!! I think your names are unique, not quite my style but lovely none the less! The funny thing is to me how could somone name there child Henry, or William, Holly or Meghan! I guess it's just a prefrence, and everyone has an opinion!!
    You could name your child whatever you want. As long as it makes you happy! Hope you have a girl!
    i personally like tradional names, but each to their own. I beleive that when u chose a name for bubs u need to see if that name will suit them thru all phases of life e.g , at kindy? as a teenager? when getting married? as an older citizen
    Their choice. Some are definitely strange, but Carys (Catherine Zeta Jones' kid) is a traditional Welsh name.
    Fascinating list. Thanks for sharing.

    There seems to be no real reason or meaning in connection with a number of the ones you've shared.



    Teachers for this next generation will have spelling and pronouncing nightmares!
    ANY MORE?

    I CANT DECIDE
    Because these people are all famous and most of them are on drugs.



    Ha.



    Also - Just want to point out - Some of these names are not all that odd...Francesca Eastwood for instance....FRANCESCA is a Spanish name and it is a very old name. (pronounced Fran CHESS ca!!) And some of them...while I agree the middle names are odd...the first names aren't. Most people only go by their first names. And in the case of Cashel Day-Lewis...Daniel Day-Lewis is from Scotland. Cashel is a common name there.
    the same reason you freaking want to name your kid "whisper" and "xane".



    odd names.
    "My son is Xane Xzavier (it is spelled right)"- No, it's not spelled right. Zane Xavier is the proper spelling. You chose to spell it wrong. That's your prerogative.



    Also, alot of those names that you listed are real names - they may not be common now, but they may have been when the babies were born. Granted, alot of them aren't "real" names, at least in my opinion.



    A name doesn't make a child/person unique, their personality %26amp; interests do. I know people who have very common names who are truly uncommon. And vice versa.
    I suppose for the same reason everybody has freedom of naming their children by whatever name they want...some are weird.. but it's best to give a child a middle name .. so if it really doesn't like the birth name.. it can go by his or her middle name which should be a bit more fitting in with names that people know how to pronounce and spell..



    Good luck
    You must have spent lots of time researching this. Maybe you can put that energy you spent typing up this whole thing doing something else? And if others don't like the names you've chosen, just tell them gently that it's your children and you like their names.



    Some of these celebrity baby names aren't that weird. Francesca, Amber Rose, Hazel Patricia are certainly legitimate names. Even Tallulah is a legitimate name - It's Irish/Celtic. And I happen to love the name Zephyr (and I'm a classic namer).
    People name their kids names like these for the very same reason you chose the unusual names you did for your kids!
    I personally don't care what anyone says about my children's names...in fact I relish the fact that neither my Mother or my Mother in Law like the names which I have chosen...especially for my daughter. I want to give my children unique names...not like every one else's!
    Seriously ridiculous names. I feel so sorry for these children, and any child with a "unique" name. I don't understand this trend of unique (read: absurd) names. It's true that one can name their child whatever they want (entitlement!!!), BUT it's the child who has to live with the consequences and believe me, there will be LOTS of them. There was a time when parents wanted the best for their child, not for themselves.

    What does this dream mean?

    i was at like camp but it was all different or something.... and my crush came with like his friends i think and he was on huge bus. i think it was like a THEATRE thing or something cuz he did this like rock and roll skit thingy...... and i saw him and during his rehearsal me and ruth (idk why) like ran past and we were afraid christian would see us.... so later after his show thingy i saw him and he was sitting at like a table with his friend and i came over without ruth to say hi. i said hi and he like fist pumped me.... i was like "only a fist pump?" and his friend was like "chris u gotta cute little princess" and then christian was like "nahhh" and he came over and hugged me for like an hour......... then me and him walked away and talked about how we missed each other..??? and then he had to go back on his bus with his friends and i was saying bye to him like waving and out of the window of the bus he has this like excited emotion on his face or something and he starts waving at me like a maniac and he yells my name and says bye and his whole bus (it was a hugeeee bus) said bye to just me. then i woke up.What does this dream mean?
    It means you know subconciously you have to make the first move with himxxx

    Dear Nobody,



    At home there's a tap in the bathroom that won't switch off properly. It needs a new valve, that's all, Mum says. Sometimes you don't hear it at all, and sometimes it keeps you awake all night, drip, drip, drip, regular and slow and insistent.



    And that's how I feel about you.



    It's like hearing my own heartbeat and not being able to switch it off.



    It's like footsteps in the dark.



    I don't know whether you're there at all.



    But the thought that you might be there is like a drip, drip, drip that won't go away, day and night, day and night now, regular and slow and insistent, like a beating pulse that won't lie still, like a clock that never stops ticking.



    Pregnant, pregnant, what if I'm pregnant?



    Tick tock tick tock tick...



    I'm so frightened at night that I can hardly breathe.



    I can't tell anyone. I can't tell Ruthlyn. I can't tell Mum.



    You're only a shadow. You're only a whisper.



    You're a tap, dripping night and day.



    But I've told Chris, at last, at last. Perhaps that will make you go away.



    Leave me alone.



    I don't want you.



    Go away. Please, please, go away.

  • Have you seen the movie V for Vendetta?

    If have, did Valerie's letter also make you cry?

    If you haven't seen it, here is Valerie's whole letter.



    "I know there’s no way I can convince you this is not one of their tricks. But I don’t care. I am me.



    My name is Valerie. I don’t think i’ll live much longer, and I wanted to tell someone about my life. This is the only autobiography that i’ll ever write, and – God – i’m writing it on toilet paper.



    I was born in Nottingham in 1985. I don’t remember much of those early years. But I do remember the rain. My grandmother owned a farm in Tottlebrook, and she used to tell me that God was in the rain.



    I passed my eleven plus, and went to a girl’s grammar. It was at school that I met my first girlfriend. Her name was Sarah. It was her wrists – they were beautiful. I thought we would love each other forever. I remember our teacher telling us that it was an adolescent phase that people outgrew.



    Sarah did.



    I didn’t.



    In 2002 I fell in love with a girl named Christina. That year I came out to my parents. I couldn’t have done it without Chris holding my hand.



    My father wouldn’t look at me. He told me to go and never come back. My mother said nothing.



    I’d only told them the truth. Was that so selfish? Our integrity sells for so little, but it is all we really have.



    It is the very last inch of us.



    And within that inch, we are free.



    I’d always known what i’d wanted to do with my life, and in 2015 I started my first film: The Salt Flats.



    It was the most important role of my life. Not because of my career, but because that was how I met Ruth. The first time we kissed, I knew I never wanted to kiss any other lips but hers again.



    We moved to a small flat in London together. She grew scarlet carsons for me in our window box. And our place always smelt of roses.



    Those were the best years of my life.



    But America’s war grew worse and worse, and eventually came to London.



    After that there were no roses anymore. Not for anyone.



    I remember how the meaning of words began to change. How unfamiliar words like “collateral” and “rendition” became frightening. When things like norsefire and the articles of allegiance became powerful. I remember how different became dangerous.



    I still don’t understand it: why they hate us so much.



    They took Ruth while she was out buying food. I’ve never cried so hard in my life. It wasn’t long until they came for me.



    It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place.



    But for three years I had roses – and apologized to no-one.



    I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch.



    But one.



    An inch.



    It is small and it is fragile, and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us.



    I hope that - whoever you are - you escape this place. I hope that the world turns, and that things get better.



    But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may not meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you: I love you.



    With all my heart.



    I love you.



    -Valerie."



    Well, did it make you cry? It's sad!

    And no, I didn't memorize the whole thing, I copied from the internet.Have you seen the movie V for Vendetta?
    Yes.

    Didnt read the rest.Have you seen the movie V for Vendetta?
    I LOVE THAT MOVIE%26lt;3



    It did make me cry.

    And when they were saying the outcome of her not revealing V.

    "Do you understand ____"

    "Yes."

    "Are you ready to corporate?"

    "...No."



    GO NATALIE PORTMAN. c:Have you seen the movie V for Vendetta?
    Saw the first 10 minutes of that movie, and then changed it to something better

    Baby name opnion!!?

    i'm naming my girl Sydney Danielle-Lyric (i love music) Bunch does that sound good together and for a boy Christian Aldean(after my grandpa Al and hubby Dean) Bunch (hubby name is Chris too) does that sound good together? Danielle after my mom Dana or should i call her Sydney Ruth (mom middle name)Bunch with or without LyricBaby name opnion!!?
    I like Danielle a lotBaby name opnion!!?
    that is sooooo beautiful I like the sound of that Sydney Danielle-Lyric, not to be rude but the Bunch part kind of throws it off but hey that's something you really can't change
    Lyric Ruth Bunch? Lyric Dana Bunch?



    Aldean Bunch? Aldean Christian Bunch?



    Wait til you see him/her, it will come to you much easier and you may find none of them suit your baby when you meet them. I always wanted a girl called Cherry, my 3rd was a girl and she definitely isnt a Cherry.Baby name opnion!!?
    I absolutely LOVE the name you picked for your boy. The girl is tougher. I like Sydney Danielle-Lyric Bunch but its a mouthful. I almost like Sydney Ruth Bunch more, yeah that's a winner! Sydney Ruth Bunch or Christian Aldean Bunch :-)

    ~*Good Luck*~
    Lyric Danielle Bunch. %26lt;--beautiful!Baby name opnion!!?
    I think that Sydney Danielle Lyric is a great name, I just wouldn't hyphenate Danelle-Lyric, as it can be tricky to fill out on forms and everything. Sydney Danielle is really pretty (and you only use your first middle name for things like job applications) and it ages well, and Lyric is fun and cute, and if it's important to you, it will be on her birth certificate and social security card, but she can choose to use it or not as an adult.



    Christian Aldean is nice. I love Christian, although I really prefer Alden instead of Aldean, which could also work as a combination of Al and Dean.
    How about Melody or Harmony instead of Lyric. It is more musical to me. I think that Danielle is too long with a second middle name. I think Sydney Melody-Ruth or Sydney Dana-Harmony is prettier and flows better. You could use Aldean and have Aldeia or Deana.



    Christian is great be Aldean also ends in an n and it doesn't flow. What is your g-pa's full name instead of just Al? Christian Alphonse or use your mom's name Dana... and make it Daniel- Christian Daniel or mix the letters of Aldean to make Neal- Christian Neal.
    Aw I think it is a beautiful name for a lucky baby girl but it might be a mouthful, especially when she is very young, and imagine if she marries a guy with a long last name! I agree with somebody who answered before me and Lyric Danielle Bunch is what I like the best, I LOVE Christian Aldean, I think thats awesome that you can honor your Grandpa and your husband together.



    Good Luck!

    A good friend has messed me around, do I forgive him or not?

    Hi there please see if you can help me with my predicament...



    For a long time now, me and my girlfriend Vita wanted to move house out of our parents house. I am 22 and she is 21. We discovered that a friend of ours called Chris needed to move too so we thought we could buy a 3 bedroom place together so it is cheaper for the rent.



    A week or so ago we found a 3 bedroom place we loved and started to go through the steps with Reeds Rains to get it. We have had nothing but trouble going back and forth from them over different issues but eventually we discovered we needed 3 lots of money before we could move in. I got my dad to pay the bond, Vita's grandma as a garantor and me and Chris and Vita would pay the first weeks rent.



    Me and Vita put all our money in and we were reassured by Chris that his would be in this Friday so we could pay and secure the house. It didnt go in and the money I had given to him had been delved into due to bank charges.



    I was worried but I knew it was not his fault about the jobcentre but all through the week he has been too laid back with everything and sleeping in for an appointment, not wanting to go to sort out with the local council etc. The same day he upset Vita by saying fat comments...



    Even if he gets the money back now im wondering if he will let me down with money throughout the 6months of living in the house and if i should look for a different place with Vita all together.



    I dont want to let him down and for him have to stay at home with his dad for ages to come but we need to move on and cant wait for him due to Vita living at her grandmas and us all boxed up ready to move. Should i give him another chance even though we are so mad at him??? if i choose not to, will he be mad at me forever?



    any comments are useful thank you all!!



    a worried Ruth xxxA good friend has messed me around, do I forgive him or not?
    A good friend is very hard to come by, especially this day in age, dont keep people in your life who will mess you up and ruin things for you. There are 7 billion people on earth. Move onto better pastures and have no regrets, this is a hard decision, but this is what i would do. I have people who have hurt me very much, those that i considered friends. They come back later in their life, but I just dont forgive them. Take Care, God Bless!A good friend has messed me around, do I forgive him or not?
    Good thing you found out early how irresponsible he is! It is a pattern that will continue. Move out and move on, without him!A good friend has messed me around, do I forgive him or not?
    Mr. Prince gave the best answer, forget this person and move on.

    --YOUNG over ESCOBAR, that is quite possibly the most ridiculous match-up ever



    --SHEETS over KAZMIR, the only reason the brew crew are fighting back in the central



    --RYAN over ZITO on ryans worst day and zito's best day



    --SABATHIA over WILLIS in a close one cuz d-train hits bombs, lol



    --GLAVINE over LIDGE, lets see, 300 game winner, or guy who lost it mentally in his third season as a closer, hmmmmm



    --ZAMBRANO over ISRINGHAUSEN, prolly most underrated pitcher last 5 years cuz of wood and prior, hey they play a lot, and a good starter beats a good closer any day



    --SMOLTZ over K-ROD, smoltz was a better closer then k-rod, and he is a better starter than closer, 200 wins, 150 saves, come on, no comparison



    --LOWRY over WASHBURN, but who cares!?



    --PEAVY over BEDARD, good match-up, but peavy has just as many strikeouts, with a better ERA, and gets wins



    --RUTH over GAGNE, ruth over everyone in everything to do w ith baseball, he had 90+ wins and an ERA in the low 2!'s



    --SCHILLING over HARANG, even though i hate boston and harang is better now, schilling is a better pitcher



    --HALLADAY over WALKER, not even worth talking about



    --ARROYO over BRAUN, cuz braun aint a pitcher



    --VERLANDER over YOUNG, cuz im a detroit fan, and verlander has a no-no



    --CLEMENS over SANTANA, no pitcher on this list is better than clemens cept maybe his idol, ruth



    --MUSSINA over CORDERO, ru kidding me? cordero?

    Would you cross off a name for a child if it was a step parents name?

    My boyfriend's parents are divorced, and have been since he was young. My parents have been together for over 20 years, and are still going strong.

    So, when we sat down and actually thought about kids names (I am not pregnant, I just love names) we hit a problem.

    To me, middle names should be after people the parents love (ie. friends,family,etc).

    For example, my middle name is Grace, which was my Grandmothers middle name and my great aunts name. But, I laid down the rule that we wouldn't pick any name relating to his step parents or step siblings names because he doesn't see them as family. (Not that I'm saying you shouldn't or its a bad idea, just something we agreed on.) and I also don't want our immediate family to think they mean less to us if we do choose one of the step family names, especially if it hurts someones feelings.

    But, with that rule we ran into some problems.

    One of my close friends middle name is Maria, which is also his step moms middle name. Her mother's name is also Ruth, and it is my best friends mother middle name. His step dads sons name is Chris, which is one of my closest and oldest friends name.

    We did compromise, we took my friends middle and first names.

    But, after a while I decided that it didn't matter.

    So, we got Lily Ruth and Hannah Maria. I actually like those names, but the only drawback is that the middle names are after the step people.

    I know it seems cruel to be saying this, and I usually would have no issue with it. But, I don't want my children to think they were named after people they weren't suppose to be named after or to give the step family the wrong idea.

    Ultimately, whatever name we choose will be under a lot of debate and I know people will think what they want about where we got the idea for the name.

    But, I was wondering what people on the internet thought about my situaton. I am actually kind of excited to hear what people have to say. :)Would you cross off a name for a child if it was a step parents name?
    let your children know who they are really named after and if his step mother or who ever thinks the baby is named after them let er think it it will only make them happy and it really dosent matter my husband his mom and siblings all start with an s he wanted to name our child with a s and his middle name is joseph we named our 1st daughter samaura jo with our second my name starts with an e and my middle is ann so her name is Elayna ann well my neice has jo for middle name and is convinced its for her (shes 10) so i just never said anything and she loves it no harm lolWould you cross off a name for a child if it was a step parents name?
    Stop micromanaging your decisions. Pick what you like. Just say that the names aren't after anybody, but just names that you liked. End of story.



    I would pick a variant of Maria unless you are hispanic. For one thing, Hannah Maria sounds very sing-song which is very annoying to an adult.
    You can tell them who they are named after. The same with the step family. You name them what you want. I actually would skip the names that are from the step family if you do not want them to have the same names. I like Lily Grace.Would you cross off a name for a child if it was a step parents name?
    Try eing creative and thinking of a new name!
    Surely your family are aware of what your close friends are called?



    I don't think it's an issue, except that deliberately calling a child after a friend's mother is rather odd. Why did you make yourself such a silly, arbitrary rule in the first place if it doesn't matter to you? It isn't going to matter to anyone else.Would you cross off a name for a child if it was a step parents name?
    Hi there it doesn't much matter not many kids like the name they get any way and always ask why didn't you name me something else . well i tell them you weren't here at that time to pick your name . so you got what i liked i don't mean any thing about this but think of other names that's not in family it might work better .my cousin never complained about his name he was named after a character from a book his mother read , western book , unusual name of a cat us tree in desert he never complained about it but i was named after my dads first girl friend and i always wondered why her name but it wasn't my choice so i let it go at least my mom wasn't jealous of her i guess . that's a good game to think about . have fun with your answers .

    Excerpt from my novel.....love feedback. let me know what you think...thanks!?

    The tears were running down my face now, I couldn’t stop them. An hour went by, we sat there in silence, listening to the oldies radio station. The rolling stones, Dusty Springrfield, Bob Dylan, The Beatles. The ghost of my mother coming back with every measure, and the coldness of today breathing in every note. I was then considering opening the truck door, and jumping out. Two car accidents in less than twenty four hours. I wonder if that would be some sort of record. The thought of it made me laugh a little. I envisioned the look on my fathers face as he saw my back fling out of the truck and sound of the thump as my body hit the pavement. I saw him at my funeral, all the mourners approaching him. “Chris, we our so sorry about your loss. First Cheryl, and now Ruth. What a tragedy. We are so sorry.” The scores of people approaching my casket, shaking their heads in disbelief. My brother Tony, kneeling before the casket, crossing himself and crying. My best friend Alicia standing inExcerpt from my novel.....love feedback. let me know what you think...thanks!?
    It kept my interest the whole way through, unlike most excerpts I've seen here. So, good job with that. ^^



    The tenses were a little bit different, but nothing too major.



    I think it might have been a little bit more powerful if you started with a variation of the fourth sentence, though your current hook is pretty good, too.



    I was kind of confused, though, with the 'my casket'... It made it sound like a story where the perspective was from the dead person. Might want to change that. :)Excerpt from my novel.....love feedback. let me know what you think...thanks!?

    Your tense is inconstant throughout. Makes it kinda hard to follow the flow, jolts out the reader, you know?
    It's full of sentence fragments, comma splices, and run on sentences, particularly within the first paragraph.



    Remember, a sentence must have a subject, predicate, and a verb. It must be a main clause. If it doesn't have those three things, and is not a main clause, it can't be a sentence.



    "The tears were running down my face now, I couldn’t stop them."

    This is a comma splice. A comma splice occurs when two main clauses are separated only by a comma. A main clause is a sentence that can stand by itself. "The tears were running down my face now" and "I couldn't stop them" can stand by themselves; they are both complete sentences. So you can't have them separated by just a comma. You have to have a period, a semi-colon, or a conjunction between the two main clauses. So it needs to be changed. For example... "The tears were running down my face now. I couldn’t stop them.", "The tears were running down my face now; I couldn’t stop them.", or "The tears were running down my face now, but I couldn’t stop them."



    There are other comma splices in there, so you'll want to correct those. Another example is the "An hour went by, we sat there in silence, listening to the oldies radio station" sentence. "An hour went by" and "We sat there in silence" are both main clauses, but "listening to the oldies radio station" is a subordinate clause because it can't stand by itself as a sentence and make sense. So that sentence needs to be changed. Examples are: "An hour went by. We sat there in silence, listening to the oldies radio station" or "An hour went by. We sat there in silence while listening to the oldies radio station."



    "The ghost of my mother coming back with every measure, and the coldness of today breathing in every note".

    This is a sentence fragment. It is not a true sentence and cannot stand on it's own. It is punctuated as a sentence when it should not be. To check for sentence fragments, check for three things: If there is a subject, if there is a verb, and whether or not it is a subordinate or main clause.



    "The ghost of my mother coming back with every measure, and the coldness of today breathing in every note."

    The verb is "to come back". The thing that came back is the ghost. So this sentence has both a subject and a verb. However, it's a subordinate clause, so it isn't a sentence. To fix it, you could make it read, "The ghost of my mother was coming back with every measure, and the coldness of today was breathing in every note".



    So, there you go. Sounds like a decent story, but there are grammatical errors. Comma splices and run on sentences are a big no-no. You want to avoid those.



    Also, the tenses were a little inconsistent. It needs to be in past tense or present tense-- don't go back and forth between the two.
    Meh, it was okay.

    Something about it was off. The way you described what your funeral would be like was not written very well. I personally think that the whole thing was not written very well. From you you told us, I felt no urge to read more. I don't know what the book is about or anything. If you don't capture your reader within the first paragraph, you will lose most readers.

    You have potential, I can tell, but you just need to find your spark. Don't give up.
    Effective use of mood and tone. The narrative does a good job of keeping a reader's attention throughout.



    However, this may need to be revised simply for clarity. At one point during my first read through, I thought that the narrator had died, and was speaking from beyond the grave. (perhaps it was my fault.)



    This is actually a decent piece of work. One of the best excerpts I've read on YA

    They look pretty good! :-) So I will only mark you the wrong ones:

    I live by the library = Yo vivo al lado de la biblioteca.

    My favorite season is spring = Mi estaci贸n favorita es la primavera.

    My brother wants to be a physical therapist = Mi hermano quiere ser fisioterapeuta.

    Her favorite color is blue = Su color favorito es el azul.

    My friend has brown hair = Mi amiga tiene el pelo marr贸n.

    She wants to travel around the world = Ella quiere viajar alrededor del mundo.

    She has green eyes = Ella tiene los ojos verdes.

    My mom's favorite snack is ice cream = El tentempi茅 favorito de mi mam谩 es el helado.

    My sister is very annoying = Mi hermana es muy molesta.

    She goes to college = Ella va a la universidad.

    There may seem quite a lot, but in some it's just the article.

    Hope it helps!Are these Spanish translations correct?
    This is me = Esta soy yo -It just sounds awkward in a way that isn't as evident in english. If it's a picture I'd definitely use Aqui estoy. -Here I am. Sorry, it just sounds better to me at least.



    I live by the library = Yo vivo al lado de la biblioteca (I live right by the library-literally beside/ on the side of the library) or BETTER: Vivo cerca a la biblioteca ( I live close to the library)



    My favorite season is spring = Mi estaci贸n favorita es (la) primavera.



    On the physical therapist -Odd you think that way about this, but had no problem with the 4th sentence which does the same dealing with a dentist.



    My friend has brown hair = Mi amiga tiene el pelo marr贸n.



    She wants to travel around the world = Ella quiere viajar por todo (d)el mundo.



    She has a son named Gavin = Ella tiene un hijo (que se llama) Gavin.





    My mom's favorite snack is ice cream = (La) merienda favorita de mi mam谩 es el helado.





    My sister is very annoying = Mi hermana es muy enojosa.



    She goes to college = Ella es un estudiante en una universidad. (colegio= high school, and to go to is like visiting some place not actually attending which is what I asssume you meant so I put She's a university student)



    Nice job.
    He loves to play baseball = Le encanta jugar al b茅isbol



    correction - Le encanta jugar el b茅isbol.Are these Spanish translations correct?
    You can use the babylon for this purpose. It's the best translator in my opinion: http://translators.gnds.info/
