A reminder: если вам нужен тезаурус (т.е. нужно найти синонимы к слову, чтобы разнообразить interesting and useful чем-то более advanced),
лучший англоязычный обновляемый лексикологами тезаурус здесь: https://www.thesaurus.com

а ещё там есть интересные словарные статьи, for example, I found an expression that describes my characteristics as a partner 🐱

While you worry about your mistakes, native speakers are enjoying the freedom of ironic self expression

*you should too, but to use grammar ironically you have to know the rules first*

You’re welcome to join my colleague’s book club:) Knowing her, it should be nice🌟 and this is a chance for extra free practice (remember to read the book though)

So, thanks to everyone who voted! Sunday, September 29th it is. There’s still plenty of time to read the book (actually, just half of it, only up to chapter “The Night in Longyearbyen”, but feel free to finish it if you got hooked)See you!

1. this is brilliant
2. посмотрите на использование couldn’t в значении «ты бы не смог»

could - это не только прошедшее время can, это еще и мог бы, и про это помнят в просьбах и часто забывают в догадках/предсказаниях

e.g.
I couldn’t do it even if I tried = I wouldn’t be able to do it even if I tried
