I can feel the scent of Spring, can you feel it too? The view from my window is so beautiful that every morning I just can't wait to see it and enjoy it. Generally I love nature so a little forest and fields in front of my window make me extremely calm and relaxed.
But today I wanted to talk about language mistakes. I don't quite know how it is but there are words that I just can't remember how to write properly. The truth is that I know it but have a peculiar habit of writing them incorrectly.
Thus, I write extremly instead of extremely, separetly instead of separately and not business but bussiness.
I also used to not write surprised but suprised and heard it was a very common mistake. I even found a mistake made in this word in my handbook which has been written by the Poles so maybe it shouldn't have 'suprised' me (no offence).
Finally, I can't remember if I should write 'Good luck' separately or not and the same goes to 'of course'. These are very simple and common expressions so I don't really understand how, after such a long time of study, can I possibly still have any problems with them, yet I just do.
As to my hobbies that I've mentioned in the latest post, I've read 'The Art of War' by Sun Tsu(in English of course. Yeah, I'm that good). Though being written a few centuries ago and dealing to strategies of a battlefield it still contains so many information useful in nowadays life that I was pleasantly surprised. Obviously, the vocabulary smashed my mind up. But luckily, the book has only 13 extremely short chapters which makes it almost perfect to me. That's because, probably as most of people, I have my own system of selecting books. This is how it works:
My rule no. 1 in choosing books to read - the shorter, the better.
Rule no. 2 - big letters are required. I hate illegible writing, it discourages me from reading very often.
Rule no. 3 - of course it should relate to some topic I like, for example languages, business psychology or something like that.
The last rule - I like nice covers. I know it's shallow, but I feel they say a lot about the contents so it has a great meaning to me.
What kind of books do you like and how do you pick them?
