Are anyone here intersted in Wong Kar Wai's films. His films are famous for not only many beautiful scenes but also their soothing music.

Have a nice week ahead, guys!
Time passes so fast, just three days to Vietnam's Liberation Day and International Workers' Day. Will you go to your hometown or stay in the city you're working in? If you have a long time not see your family, I hope you already have tickets or someways to back to your village because it's hard to get bus tickets or air tickets now due to coronavirus pandemic.

Anyways, I feel my sentences aren't natural, could you help me to improve it?

I think "just three days" should be "just three more days". The rest of your sentences is okay ^^

It is a blessing when you have a place to fall back to. You gonna have beautiful days with your family on holidays.

Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem with Ch sound. Whenever I try to say "Chew" on Google voice typing, the word "True" or "To" always appears although the results of saying a J sound word such as "Jew" are right all the time. Please tell me how to say CH sound.
Sorry for my poor English.

I've tried it on google translate and have the same problem. I still can't figure out how to pronoune it.

Ch represents for an independent consonant from both /t/ and /ʃ / , hence, we have /tʃ /. Meanwhile, tr is a consonant cluster of /t/ and /ɹ /.
With the combined consonant, you could attempt to pronounce /t/ then /ɹ /, so you would at the almost correct sound of/tɹ /
But practicing both /t/ and /ʃ / might not help you getting /tʃ / , then I hope the following litte trick would help.
Step 1: put /t/ sound at a standy position, your tounge touch upper front teeth - alveolar area. do not make the /t/ sound yet.

Step 2: pronounce /ʃ / sound while your tongue at /t/ sound position - at the upper front teeth - alveolar area, remember not at the teeth but at the alveolarr area.
At this point you could make the /tʃ / sound of Ch in Chew - Chair- Chain -Chin -Chick

Thanks for your help
I have tried to pronounce like that and some CH words I pronounce have been identified correctly, but the "chew" word is not yet . I think I need to practice more.

Last few days the weather was so crazy. Sometimes it feels like the hottest summer is coming, then suddenly a cold wind flowed from nowhere makes it like in the winter.
I have a runny nose, and it becomes terrible now.
:badsmell:

 

[iMin]

It is so disappointed.

*It's disappointing. Many overlook this mistake but I think it's kinda severe, it's [i am disappointed at something] and [something is disappointing (to me)] and not the other way around.

Run, man! I had the same problem years ago. Then I started running every afternoon, until my body becomes sweaty. After 1 month, the problems disappear and feel like I just have a new-bigger battery

The last day before the reunification day and the international labor day, I skip the breakfast and go to work so I'm hungry right now. Tomorrow, I have a plan to repaint my house.

Well, What a terrible day! Got an interview early in the morning, with an expectation of being outstanding, making some good impressions to employer, but how tf can I know or guess that I would get choked so badly. It seems like mentality has long been my issue, that non-stop undermines the confidence or at least what remains. Like a child playing hide and seek, sometimes this unclear and inconsistent pain shows some sign of recovery, mitigation, driving me to believe that I am an utterly different version, a better one who I still believe that is true me. The other times, it gets worse, exacerbating, torturing and me, again suffering.

yeah,but life doesn’t really that bad, and sad. There are still some silver linings in this month. Imagine that you are in a dark cold and shuttered room, and somehow, a glimmering light manages to sneak into. The light, weak and unstable, sheds on your soul, and all of sudden, it bursts into flame, shines your eyes and ways, warms your heart, and heats up all - the hope to keep on living, the willingness to dream, one more time. Life is getting brighter though it is not because of my becoming better, but a fear stemming from the show Bojack Horseman. The cartoon TV show describes a daily life of a horse, also known as a well known, but infamous actor. Walking through 6 season is to feel, to express sympathy and sometimes to vent the wrath on this asshole but unlucky, pitiful character. If you are like me, being stucked in career, in life, unable to get out eventhough you have tried, so hard, so much, you should give this show a shot. You will get better.
