Actually I didn’t undersatand what you mean with “IT” That’s why I can’t answer your question, if you can just let me know what you meant please.
I’m just trying to have some practice ok?
Thank you very much and have a nice week
Hi Magda
You wrote
“check my message and tell me if THEY are well written”
It should be “check my message and tell me if IT is well written)
“It” is singular. “message” is singular.
Not plural
cheers Mark

Hello Arron, how do you do ? thank a lot for sending me great conversation. it’s really helpful to improve my english skill. would you sent me more another conversation ? Thanks C… U
it is impressing
I have heard all the conversation between Mark and Annette and I am forced to mark all of the transcript but in the end when Mark says OK, thanks a lot; I think I have heard Annette to say: yeah, isn’t she?
It’s a very interesting part of lesson, as usual. I learned a lot of news vocabularies, the grammar rule and others things.
But there are somes expressions I can’t understand clearly like: “colorful way of speaking”, “a fair bit” and “a thousand thank yous”.
YOUS, it’s the first time I heard talking about it, could you explain me their meaning? Is there another rule of grammar for this term or it’s only a slang?
See you later in the next lesson.
a colourful way of speaking
means
