یه درخواست کوچولو:

همه کسانی که از این وبلاگ مطلبی اصطلاحی گرامری حتی شده یه لغت یاد گرفتن لطفا به این پست نظر بدن.میخوام بدونم تو این 6 سال به هدفم رسیدم؟ تونستم کمکی به زبان آموزان باشم؟ اگر بله که ادامه میدم این راه رو اگه نه هم از همین حالا بهم بگین تا در اینجا رو تخته کنم.

یه نکته کنکوری: برای اینکه یه مترجم خوب و توانایی بشی باید دوست عزیزمن فقط ترجمه کنی

بهترین راه برای تقویت ترجمه ترجمه کردنه.فارسی به انگلیسی یه کم مشکلتره اما میشه باور داشته باش که تو هر کاری رو اراده کنی میتونی انجامش بدی.فقط باید وقت صرف کنی و تمرین کنی.همین.
