With so many English Learning Sites out there, it’s important not to waste your time filtering out scam and advertising sites that care more about earning a dollar than helping students become fluent. The following sites have received the highest ratings from ESL students. They are all free. They are all high quality. Most importantly, they are all highly effective in helping students become fluent English speakers.

Starfall

This site is used in primary schools throughout the United States. It is an excellent tool for developing a solid foundation of the English phonic and phoneme rules that are essential for a fluent English speaker.

Englishspeak

Englishspeak.com has two features that students love. First, it provides audio for thousands of words, phrases and conversations in English. This is a powerful tool for punctuation improvement. Secondly, this site has the ability to translate its content into Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Bengali, German, French and many more.

USALearns

This site is very comprehensive. It has beginning, Intermediate and high intermediate levels. Students can register for free and keep track of progress as they complete each unit.  Many topics are covered and by the completion of the course a student will be reasonably comfortable with English communications on essential topics.

ELLLO This site has taken the place of Yappr.com for students that want to listen, watch and read at the same time. Since Yappr.com began charging for use of its site (an unforgivable sin and dimwitted business plan) it is essentially non-existent in ESL schools. ELLO.com has swept in to take its place with videos and audio for ESL students to learn and enjoy at the same time.

Manythings.org

This is the original ESL site. Its been around for over 10 years and was created by an English teacher for Japanese students. It is not fancy. It looks like an old school HTML and flash website from days gone by, but this site has it all. Explore and you will find something useful, guaranteed.

Gue tiba-tiba aja ingin berpuisi, haha. Tapi berhubung gue susah bikinnya mending gue nranslate lagu. Well, see if EF works out haha. Oh ya lagu-lagu ini gue ambil bagian reffnya aja.

My everything – Lee Min Ho
Ku hanya ingin melihat dan mendengarmu
Ku ingin membiarkanmu hidup didalamku
Lihatlah aku
Datanglah ke pelukanku
Kau adalah segalanya bagiku
Kau adalah segalanya bagiku
Cinta untukmu

Haven’t Met You Yet – Michael Buble
Dan aku tahu suatu hari itu semua akan berubah
Kau akan membuatku berubah jadi kita dapat bekerja untuk menyelesaikannya
Dan aku menjanjikanmu bahwa aku akan memberi lebih dari apa yang kudapat
Aku hanya belum bertemu denganmu

Gran Torino – Jamie Cullum
Lembutlah sekarang; angin sejuk berhembus
Berbisik menembus Gran Torino
Menyiulkan sebuah lagu tua lain
Mesin menderum dan impian-impian pahit datang
Sebuah hati terkunci didalam sebuah Gran Torino
Mendetakkan ritme sepi sepanjang malam

Falling Slowly – Glen Hansard
Ambil kapal tenggelam ini dan arahkan pulang
Kita masih punya waktu
Tinggikanlah suara harapanmu, kau memiliki pilihan
Kau akan melakukannya sekarang

I used to be an all-or-nothing person, full-on until I had seen an idea through to the end and not satisfied until all boxes were ticked that related to my original objectives. Socially, my confidence wore itself on my coat – I was terrified of my peers and did not make friends easily, but behind my fear of people, there lurked an inner obstinacy which ruled how I set my own personal goals and how I envisaged my future and, in a way which I never worked out, that is apparently what most people could see – a tenacity often criticised as a form of arrogance.  True to say, I was convinced, until I left university, that I had a role to play on the planet, that I would work hard at whatever it was and do something  worthwhile with my life, not, I hasten to add, because I suffered from any delusions of self-grandeur as, sustaining reasonable results at school rarely put me top of any class that I can remember, but  my insecurity around people and my fear of not being liked was no conscious platform for me to express my visions of the future externally.

Perhaps, then, it was the conflict of perspectives – on the one hand: the I could be whatever I want to be attitude vs I am not liked, therefore I am not a nice person, therefore I am doing something wrong which began to change my motivation. Perhaps it was the subconscious pressure of playing to two teacher-parents who had set all their hopes in a daughter who would change the world, or perhaps it was simply the ultimate realisation that I was (am) in fact ordinary – just another number whose skills were not actually good enough to become brilliant at anything. Multi-faceted though I have always been, I am, quite honestly, even now just a Jack-of-several-trades and master of none.

Would it be egoistical, arrogant or even narcissistic of me then to suggest that I should actually have turned out better – that I should have been more successful, or that I should have done more with my life? Doesn’t a person of average-to-reasonable intelligence – if I may be so bold as to tar myself with this brush – owe it to themselves to ‘be great’ ?

This is a perspective I struggle with every day of my life, the fact that I could have been so much more, that I never did find my niche and, in the words of certain people who shall remain nameless, have simply ‘fritted my life away’. With everything handed to me on a plate as a child: perfect health, an athletic body (in my younger years!), many opportunities to push myself in areas where I showed above-average talent (predominantly music, drama, dance) I find it hard to justify to myself how I ended up a single mother, running not my career but ‘our existence‘ from a cramped corner of my lounge, seeing no-one but shoppers in the local supermarket for days on end and being a passenger to the hours hurtling past with no ability to slow things down or to take back the control.

Dissecting myself piece by piece, particularly over the last couple of years , in an attempt to break down the real me, I simply cannot put my finger on what it is I have actually become.

Fast approaching 40, I realise I have achieved so little of what I set out to achieve, but have,  (instead?) sub-consciously developed a multitude of personae over the years, each one reigning respectively during a different phase of my life and tackling a different set of experiences. For sure, it  felt real and authentic at the time, but each entry to a new phase  saw me questioning who the heck the person was who was evanescing into the background to make room for the new me. I have often felt an uncomfortable  sense of detachment when faced with memories of myself in certain situations – almost as though I was recalling events which had happened to someone else, someone with a view so distorted of the person I think I am, that I even emerged from such phases feeling an overwhelming sense of relief at ‘I’m finally back .. this is the real ME!’ before unintentionally allowing that person to drift off again in place of someone else about to live the episode to come. Complex? Definitely. Schizophrenic ? I hope not! but I do have an issue now, today, in working out who is at the core of me and what I actually, honestly still want from my life – which Me of all the different versions in the past was/is for real?

In the same way as I am finding it impossible to achieve what it is I actually want to say in this blog for the cacophony in my head, I have found it impossible thus far to concretise what it is I really want to do and who I want to be:

My failure as a writer – in my total inability to translate that which is battened down in the  depths of my soul – is, for me, the epitome of all my failings as a musician and an artist and, by default then as the person I always wanted to become; the issue is consistent: I can feel something that I cannot, cannot manifest in word, nor music, nor (to be true to myself) in my daily life.

My quandary might, at some stage if ever discovered, make for good existentialist debate over a bottle of something more potent than tea, but then, I am not solely on a quest for a permanent state of ‘happiness’ – at least not as a priority. Perhaps, if I was so lucky as to work out the answer to my conundrum I might find that I could at least live out the rest of my days in a state of contentment – knowing that I did the best I could, to be the person I had the potential to be. However, cynical that I am and aware of the abstractness of the problem at hand, I fear I might simply be chasing my tail; chasing my tail in an endeavour to prove something to myself that I am not even aware of yet … and all that, whilst squandering the most precious of commodities which was, in fact, always mine to do what I liked with in the first place : time.

Wow, gestern war viel los … viel Spaß!

Sunday afternoon and hunched over my PC (voluntarily this time having just delivered on a deadline) I  can’t help but ponder over what on Earth I’m doing. Looking around at the detritus (thanks Bob for the word) which is my apartment and musing that I should be using the time to clear up and start afresh for the new week, I’m thinking it shouldn’t be this hard to tear myself away from the screen and give my myself a break. I’m wrecked, my back is screaming and I haven’t been out for a walk in weeks, yet all I can think about is the lure of the machine. Looking back over the last 2 years I have to ask myself, again, if what I’m doing is really the right thing.

Having made the most difficult decision of my life, in 2007, to leave the father of our then, 9-month old son, I was faced with a 3rd house-move in 18 months, no family in the country, a whole new set of legislation and going it pretty much alone. The concept of single parent-hood is sadly, as we know, not unusual these days and despite the emotional turmoil playing out a mix of overwhelming sadness, guilt and pros and cons of a better-or-not  future in my head, I never doubted that I could pick myself up and move on; I’m stubborn by nature and it takes a lot to pull the rug out completely from under my feet, but this time, I have to confess, I grossly, grossly underestimated just how tough things were going to be. I often wonder, if I had the last two years over, would I make the same decisions again.

Typical me-timing, I had accepted redundancy from my employer of 6 yrs just 3 months prior to discovering I was pregnant, which, as I was to learn, placed me in a complex Exceptions-Bucket, here in Germany, of single mothers not entitled to very much help at all thank you.

From a bureaucratic perspective, I had been ‘given’ a bundle of money and would therefore qualify only for minimal unemployment benefit. Fair-enough perhaps, in principle, but the payout was far from being a bottomless pit and, as any lady will tell you who has ever tried to apply for a job whilst pregnant, it is near-on impossible; it is just not in the interest of a company to take on an expecting mother long-term and even if they did, they would almost certainly not agree to pay her maternity. So, due to a grim irony of timing and circumstances,  I had to kit out a new baby with all that that entails, contribute to rent and food, (the father was in a worse financial situation than myself and we were not married), then later, pay agency fees for a new place and survive month by month on what was left of the settlement. Just over a year later, despite doing bits of translation work here and there to subsidize us, the money was gone, my child was still only 12 months old and the unemployment office was no longer playing ball.

My rights were read and my options became clear: put the baby in daycare and go back to work full-time, or sign on to Hartz IV, the social welfare benefit available to those who find themselves well and truly on the breadline. The former option for me was a no-brainer – my baby was too young to go into full time daycare;  the latter, however, aside of hammering my pride to a pulp, would condemn me to releasing all savings and assets I had worked so hard for, plus conceding my books and bank accounts to the finance office for rigorous and continuous audit; it would tie me to the country – potentially meaning no non-approved visits to family and friends back home – and to a system which demanded that I report my status and my whereabouts at all times. Far from being of an opinion that I was ‘owed’ the right to full state support, (my dignity in itself would never have allowed for that) I had  hoped that the state might help me get off the ground by contributing to a few hours’ child-care per week, or by subsidizing the part-time work I was already doing. The red-tape here, however, was so ridiculous and so restrictive that it rendered my efforts to do what I could for myself an absolute joke. All of the above was so galling to me it drew the bile to my throat; I had worked my socks off here for over 6 years and had contributed a LARGE amount to the country’s tax system. Somehow I just got the feeling they had written me off.

Finding myself totally cornered, I gulped and made a snap decision: anything (I thought) would be better than condemning myself and my boy to being ‘pimped’ by a bunch of bureaucrats. I had been given one last, crazy option by the UO and, almost on a whim, I grabbed it and took the decision to set myself up as a one-man translation & English-coaching company; the theory: running an E-Business from home would mean I could work flexible hours – enabling me to work and be there for my baby, whilst hopefully generating enough income to keep us. Being a project-manager by trade and an ideas person, the whole thing became an exciting venture overnight and I threw myself in to the planning like a child with a new toy. The reality of my situation only hit home when I commissioned a tax advisor to help me with the initial proposal and I realised I needed to come back down with a bump from wherever it was I was floating.

In my head, the proposal itself should have been finished in a matter of days. In reality, trying to juggle time even to calculate my book value and to project how much I could realistically earn over the next 5 years, with the time needed to cater for the little one, a home and an impossible tax advisor, was already a hurdle I was finding difficult to clear. A sign of things to come? – the whole thing took over two months and pushed me to yet another emotional limit but, clinging on for dear life, I stuck with it and finally won my legal stamp;  the company was launched as of 1, August 2008.

That, I was to discover, was the easy part.

I was still committed to endless form-filling which, even in my own language, I find arduous and for the most part overkill, but here the legislation takes on a life of its own and comes free with a jargon even the experts often struggle with. Time, time, time – all this administration takes so much time … precisely the commodity which, particularly for a single, working parent, is the most scarce. All I wanted to do was to find customers, work to earn money and look after my child, but the bottomless pit of bureaucracy stipulated that the few hours a day I had to myself whilst the little one slept, would be used for filling out reports on all the work I hadn’t had time to do yet as I’d been filling out reports.

L  was getting older and sleeping less and with that came a cumulative decrease in my already scant available work-hours. ‘Can’t you put him in a playgroup a couple of mornings’ was the helpful suggestion I heard at least 3 times a week from very sweet people who just couldn’t appreciate that ‘if there’s no money coming in, you can’t pay for  child-care’. The endless battle to get on top of my finances, to gain a little capital to actually invest in daycare, was killing me, but was still proving far from fruitful. No child-care: no time to work. No time to work: no money. No money: no child-care…. and so it went on.

My bank manager was supportive and empathetic, but ultimately he was a bank manager and at some point in June 2009 he apologised … and froze all my accounts.

With that came one of the lowest points in the history of me, as I put my card in the slot at the local supermarket and the assistant called the supervisor. The trolley full of food was returned to the shelves and I wheeled out my son clutching a litre of milk and wondering how the hell we were going to make it through the week.

It took several months, but we did climb out of that period, of course, marking it up eventually as ‘a pretty bloody awful time’, but re-emerging with a very clear idea that things had to change and fast.

Oddly, I can’t really put my finger on what exactly did change. I know that it involved a lot of soul-searching, personal kicks in the pants, screaming at myself mentally to sort things out, and scraping around for opportunities however unlikely and however small. Eventually, something did,  miraculously start to click into place and the machine began to roll.

So looking back, then, the whole thing has been a monster learning-curve in what it can be like if the tables turn and a reminder that one should perhaps never take a comfortable existence for granted. I have always worked hard and earned relatively well, but suddenly, from one day to the next I found myself in really big trouble – with threats of eviction, bills pouring in and absolutely no access to any money. For me, it was a test which required every ounce of strength I had, to hit the bottom and then claw a way back up. I am only too aware of the fact that I occasionally lost sight of my target and allowed myself to be dragged down by the interminable guilt that I had failed – as a mother and as a partner and then potentially also in my role as provider,  but over time, I think I have learned to live with the fact that, much as I would like things to be different, my situation is the way it is now. The whole, extremely humbling experience has taught me, quite simply, to live for today, to take baby-steps and survive literally one day at a time. What I have come to acknowledge during that time, however, is that things do not have to stay this way – I do have the ability to change my life and that my future is what I alone will make of it. Is it tough? In the words of the wonderful Dolly Parton, “heyll Yeyss!” But change that I will.

Meanwhile, I seem to have developed an odd, rather a-social routine but which more or less works (at least for now). If I am super, super organised! and make lots of lists in my head if no-where else, I can enjoy some real quality time with my boy and can work when he sleeps. Juggling a 24hr cycle to incorporate my son, the business and general housekeeping chores is, however, far from easy and, as yet, denies me the possibility of an ‘external’ social-life; it involves some horrendously long days and even longer nights, but what I will say is this: now I have found a means of precariously balancing all three – on a knife-edge though we may currently be  – I consider myself to be very lucky: not many single parents have the privilege of ‘time’ available for their young child as well as being the sole wage-earner, but for me that was my number one priority – non-negotiable.

So back to my original questions  – am I doing the right thing? the last two and a half years have been the biggest test of my life and a constant emotional rollercoaster, but all things considered, I actually think I am;  I’m sailing so close to the wind that my luck could change again at any moment, but I now do feel that the direction is right. Would I do the same again if I had my time over? …… well I guess, being relentless as I still am in my goal to do my best for us both,  I’d have to take a long, deep breath and answer … with an unequivocal  ’absolutely, most definitely,  Yes ! ‘

@fitozg. La gente de Google ha implementado dos nuevas funcionalidades en su servicio de traducción.

Por un lado ahora ya podemos traducir los textos simultáneamente mientras los escribimos.

Otra función, muy interesante por ejemplo para la gente que está aprendiendo inglés, es la capacidad del traductor de pronunciar las frases en otros idiomas. Además con este servicio se pueden se puede traducir cualquier texto al inglés y que el sintetizador de voz dicte el texto de forma completa.

Poco a poco Google mejora sus servicios y sigue demostrando que a pesar de la sombra de monopolio que se cierne sobre ellos desde hace algún tiempo ellos se esfuerzan en ofrecer buenas soluciones para todos sus usuarios.

Il più utilizzato traduttore online ed il più conosciuto, è sicuramente Google translate, che proprio in questi giorni, ha apportato delle importanti modifiche nelle modalità di traduzione. Vediamole insieme. La più importante modifica, è quella della traduzione istantantanea. Da oggi mentre inseriamo il testo, Google tradurrà automaticamente ogni parola inserita, senza premere il tasto traduci. Un’altra importante novità, è che adesso è possibile ascoltare il testo tradotto dall’apposita icona. Il testo che Google avrà tradotto in inglese, potrà essere ascoltato per apprenderne la pronuncia. Poi molto utile anche la funzione che ci permette di scambiare le lingue da quella sorgente a quella da tradurre e viceversa. Complimenti a Google che è sempre in continuo aggiornamento. Sono sicuro che molti apprezzeranno queste novità.

Google’s tool for translating text between 51 languages, Google Translate, has just added some very nifty and very useful features, with the biggest change being the addition of instant, real-time translations.

Το εργαλείο της Google για την μετάφραση κειμένου, μεταξύ των 51 γλωσσών, το Google Translate, μόλις πρόσθεσε κάποιες  ικανές  και πολύ χρήσιμες λειτουργίες, με το πιο σημαντικό που κάνει την μεγάλη διαφορά είναι η προσθήκη της στιγμιαίας μετάφρασης σε πραγματικό χρόνο.

Παρόλο που η εταιρεία δεν αφαίρεσε το “translate button” , θα έπρεπε τώρα καθώς  η σωστή μετάφραση θα εμφανίζεται σε πραγματικό χρόνο κάτω από το πλαίσιο του  κειμένου. Είναι πραγματικά εκπληκτικό: να μπορείτε να πληκτρολογείτε  πολύπλοκες λέξεις και να βλέπετε τις ρίζες τους, καθώς πληκτρολογείτε.

Δύο άλλες προσθήκες του Google Translate που είναι εξίσου εντυπωσιακές. Ένα άλλο νέο χαρακτηριστικό βοηθά τους αγγλόφωνους να προφέρουν και να διαβάσουν μη-λατινικές γλώσσες (π.χ. κινέζικα, Ιαπωνικά, Κορεατικά). Κάνοντας κλικ στο “Show romanizaiton” θα σας προσφέρει μία φωνητική απεικόνιση της μετάφρασης έτσι ώστε να μπορείτε να την διαβάζεται αμέσως. Εβραϊκά, αραβικά, περσικά και δεν υποστηρίζονται ακόμη. Ωστόσο, αραβικά, περσικά, και χίντι έχουν τώρα μια δυνατότητα που σας επιτρέπει να πληκτρολογήσετε τις λέξεις που ακούγονται (στα αγγλικά) και να τις μετατρέψετε σε native script.

Τέλος, προστέθηκε text-to-speech υποστήριξη του λόγου για αγγλικές μεταφράσεις: απλώς κάντε κλικ στο εικονίδιο του ομιλητή για να ακούσετε την μετάφρασή σας. Συνολικά, αυτά τα νέα χαρακτηριστικά είναι μια καλή αναβάθμιση στο Google Translate, ειδικά οι μεταφράσεις σε πραγματικό χρόνο, η οποία  μπορεί να αλλάξει τρόπο με τον οποίο οι άνθρωποι αλληλεπιδρούν με το εργαλείο.

Παρακάτω η Google προβάλει με ένα βίντεο τα νέα χαρακτηριστικά του Google Translate:

Ich habe meinen Text mit Google Translate ins Serbische übersetzt und dann wieder zurück ins Deutsche. Amüsant

Aber alles in allem ein sehr leistungsfähiges neues Werkzeug von Google, dass sich in Sachen Anwenderfreundlichkeit und Nutzen vor Babelfish & Co. nicht verstecken braucht.

Let’s face it: spanish tongue is beautiful, but it has so many accents (according to the place you’re in) and so many differences from country to country that a foreigner may end up more confused.

I mean, if an english speaker have studied spanish in Spain and then this person comes to Latin America, chances are he / she understands half of what people talk. Why? Because Spain’s accent is so diferent from Latin America’s  that it even sounds like another language to foreigners..

Not to mention: accent differences among Central America, Mexico and South America. Totally different. And I have focused just on the accent, what about idioms? You can’t imagine how one word can have so many meanings depending on where are you (Guatemala, El Salvador, Mexico, Argentina).

This is why is so important to focus on what you really need when you’re looking for a translator. For example, if you’re planning to share your website for customers in Central America, it may be better to specify this next time you’re searching for a translation service.

At Mayordomo Fiel you can find english-spanish translations (and viceversa) ideal for all Latin America, and even Spain, for we have had customers from the other side of the ocean, which has been the best way to learn how to write and translate for them.  So, give us a call or send us your inquiry.

I wish

I wish I could love you in simplicity;

with words that never can be spoken

by the wood to the fire which turns him into ashes

I wish I could love you in simplicity;

with signs that never can be showed

by the cloud to the rain which makes him vanished

Go on

Have you ever spoken.. but never been listened to
Completely unnoticed
Have you ever been unguilty, but been blamed
No chance to defend

Whom I live with?
I dont know who you actually are
You’re my dearest
but simply a stranger in my eyes

You live by your own
You live in your own world
Go on.. Go on..
That’s just you

You dont need me
Im a sculpture only
Affection is not your necessity

Just go on.. go on..

*Judul yang saya posting di FB adalah “Bad Grammar”

On a waggon bound for market
there`s a calf with a mournful eye.
High above him there`s a swallow,
winging swiftly through the sky.

Di atas sebuah kereta yang berangkat menuju pasar
Ada seekor anak lembu dengan mata yang sendu
Jauh tinggi di atasnya, terbanglah seekor burung walet
mengepakkan sayapnya dengan cepat di angkasa

How the winds are laughing,
they laugh with all their might.
Laugh and laugh the whole day through,
and half the summer`s night.

Betapa angin tertawa
Dia tertawa sejadi-jadinya
Tertawa dan terus tertawa sepanjang hari
dan setengah malam di musim panas

Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna; Donna, Donna, Donna, Don.
Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna; Donna, Donna, Donna, Don.

“Stop complaining!” said the farmer,
Who told you a calf to be?
Why don`t you have wings to fly with,
like the swallow so proud and free?”

“Berhenti mengeluh!” kata sang petani,
Siapa yang menyuruhmu menjadi lembu
Mengapa kau tak memiliki sayap untuk terbang,
seperti sang walet yang angkuh dan merdeka?”

Calves are easily bound and slaughtered,
never knowing the reason why.
But whoever treasures freedom,
like the swallow has learned to fly.

Anak lembu sangatlah mudah diikat dan dibantai,
tanpa mengetahui alasannya.
Berbeda dengan siapapun yang menhargai kebebasan,
seperti sang walet yang telah belajar terbang.
