A review of an app

Hello everyone,

In this post, I'm going to write a review of an app.

It's called Duolingo. It's a language-learning app. Millions of people use it, and I started to use it last year. I use it once a day because I learn French on it.

It's a great app because it's free and very easy to use. All you need is to choose the language you want to learn. Then you can learn it doing some fun activities on it. You can hear all the sentences in questions. Also you can repeat some sentences using your microphone. It will tell you if you pronounce it correctly. It's fun. You can also read and listen to stories in there. Last but not least, it has got both an app and website version, and they're compatible!

In my opinion, there are a couple of problems with it. First, there aren't any videos. It's only listening. It would be great if we could watch some real people using the language. Second, the activities are usually based on translation. I wish we could have more reading or listening based activities.

Overall, it's a perfect app and if you want to practise and learn a language by yourself, you should definitely try it. I strongly recommend it.

Thanks for reading. Goodbye!

A book review

Hello everybody, In this post, I'm going to write a book review. This is a very important book for me. First of all, let me tell you the basics about it. It's called "Of Mice and Men", which was translated as " Fareler ve İnsanlar " into Turkish. It is a novel, but it is not very long (novella). It was written by John Steinbeck, a famous American author. It was first published in 1937, and it has got 107 pages originally. This is the cover of the book in first edition. The main characters of the book are George and Lennie. George is short, but he is a strong man. Also, he is Lennie's best friend. On the other hand, Lennie is very tall and very strong, but he is mentally disabled. In other words, he is like a baby. He cannot do anything without George's help. He always asks George before he does something. Lennie and George in the film version of the book. George and Lennie live together. They have a dream; they want to make a lot of money and buy a f...

What to watch during lockdown?

 Hello, In this post, I'm going to tell you 3 TV shows you can watch during lockdown. We cannot go out much because of the pandemic. So, it would be good to know some nice TV shows to watch during this time. The first one is an anime series. It's called  Haikyu!! .  Hinata (the boy with ginger hair) is the main character. It is about a high school student who wants to be a professional volleyball player. He joins the volleyball club in his school, but the other students think he is too short for volleyball. However, he doesn't give up and strives to be a great volleyballer. If you like animes and especially the ones about a sport, you must see this. Second is a talk show. It's called Jimmy Kimmel Live! . Jimmy Kimmel is a comedian and the host of this talk show. He invites many celebrities to his show, so you can see some of your favourite celebrities there. He is also very famous for pulling pranks on little children. He asks parents to pull a prank on their children, ...

My favourite artist

 Hello everyone, In this post, I'm going to write about my favourite artist. He is called Banksy. He is from England, and he is a street artist. He has got millions of followers on social media. For example, more than 10 million people follow him on Instagram. There is something really interesting about him: Nobody knows who he really is. In other words, he is an anonymous artist. He just paints a picture on a wall (mural) in a city somewhere around the world, and it gets famous right away, but he usually does it in England. Unfortunately, some of his artwork is erased afterwards because people don't know it was Banksy, who painted it. Sometimes people erase his artwork because they don't like the message in it, or it is wiped out because some say it is vandalism. Here are a couple of examples of his artwork that I like. A Banksy graffiti about global warming Banksy made this in Palestine. Banksy on refugee crisis I like his art because it always has a message. He draws abo...
