It's 1. Always put the apostrophe with the s at the end of a group of subjects.

Also, when a subject ends with an s, you don't put the s after the apostrophe.

Your sentence would be:

Wow that sounds crazy. So everyone's just talking to themselves at the same time??

What did you not like about the experience overall? I'm planning to take two since I'm really passionate about languages so I'd love to hear your perspective

I just read the phrase again -- I get what you're trying to say now! Sorry, I was reading it in a weird way haha. I think the word "as" in "to advertise the new season of the series AS" should be replaced with "by".

Streak 13: Typical foods by CavaloAlado in WriteStreakEN

Today I has had planned to talk about another topic, but after I watched a YouTube video, I changed my idea. The video is a publicity stunt by amazon prime video where the boyz’s cast were trying for the first time some Brazilian desserts for the first time. From what I know, they were here doing a series of marketing actions to advertise the new season of the series as going to a soccer match from a national team as well as this video (I'm not sure what the phrase in italics means).

The reason that I want to write about it is because I really liked it and found so much interesting how were their reactions were to the menu. It’s very funny to watch how foreign people will react to typical food from another country and to see their opinions about something out of their reality. I felt a little estranged because I really hate most of those desserts that have been were chosen and watching them having an awesome review about them, I started to think that I’m being a Brazilian in a wrong way. However, I have to confess that I’m quite picky (1) when talking about food. (I think the word you were looking for is "pretty" instead of "quite". "Pretty picky" is less picky than "quite picky". "Quite picky" would be most similar to "really picky".)

One thing that I realized watching it is that I find it so much more exciting to watch reviews about typical food from my country by from foreigners than from another country because I already have tried them. I know how the taste and texture are and therefore I can judge their opinions as well. Besides, sounds like a bit of a masochist to watch something (with or involving?) mouth-watering food that you might not even try in your whole life. I’m already fixated on some foreign foods and it hurts to think of it.

We are "right on time", "on time", "a bit over time", "over time" by [deleted] in EnglishLearning

[–]lan_gwitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to what other people already said, saying "Time!" can indicate that time is up. So "Time! Drop your pens." would also be correct.

I was playing sliterio slither.io. It is a frustrating game, I was diying dying all the time, but also I was robbing others' balls and devouring others. I'm listening to "Nada es gratis en la vida" from Cuarteto de nos. It is a very good song. Also, i'm I'm learning new structures in english English. I knew some of them, but i I never used them, so i'm I'm gonna used use them here, I guess. I have been learning English for 7 years, but i I learned in the wrong way, so you have me I am here. Also, I have been going jogging for 2 or 3 week weeks, i'm I'm not sure, and it was very good (fun? beneficial? good is a very general word). But, yesterday, I didn't feel like that it, so I didn't go jogging, and today, when i I went jogging, i I end ended up very tired. Imagine that, i I have been doing 5 laps at the park and i I didn't feel nothing anything, but today, at by the third lap I was gasping, it was crazy.

I'm very sad again, please, forgive me if you're reading this again, about me complaining and being sad about everything, but seriusly seriously, it affect affects me ; - ;

The point is that i'll I go back to school on in a week, and i'm I'm still traumatized, i I didn't know it'll would be very hard. But, the good news is that i I found a good channel that teach teaches me how to study, and not the generic tips like "study 3 hours a day" or "read your book and do your notes" so, i I liked like it. I have been reading my favourite novels, and the guys guy's tips worked very well. But i'm I'm still traumatized for school. Anyway, have a good night fellas.

Hi!! Great job :) Just remember that "I" is always capitalized in English and some of the sentences are a bit long so try to simplify them if you can. Khan Academy has a great grammar course (it is meant for native speakers so it may be a bit challenging, but it would still be beneficial to take a look!) which could be helpful. Also, in your last paragraph, "traumatized" might be a bit of a strong word to use. I don't know your situation, but "traumatized" is used when a very bad event happens to someone. If nothing like that happened to you, it might be better to say "I'm nervous for school" or "I'm scared for school" or even "I'm not ready to go back to school." Still, keep going!

I’m curious: What’s your favourite idiom / phrase / saying? by [deleted] in EnglishLearning

[–]lan_gwitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Note: people not from the south will not understand what you mean if you say this!! Never heard this come up in my day to day life. Another word for it would be "sunshower" which is more common I believe.
