It is very useful thing for live in new place as
Like me America newcomer.
Especially I need to right references for study english.
How about studying basic grammar in USA?
I put some grammar resources on www.easyesolgrammar.com. I often find good explanations on the University of Victoria's website, and good practice on www.learnenglishfeelgood.com. I don't put www.learnamericanenglishonline.com on my blog because it's usually a teacher talking and I want to be your teacher, but I've had students benefit from that website.
If I knew abbrevaitions, I would find a new house easily.
I can't understand 'Lot', 'ethnic', 'RV Parking' ...
and Room count, Sep dining Rm - What do you mean by that.
"Lot" is the land/yard/property that goes with, under, and around the house. RV parking is recreational vehicle parking. An RV is a big truck with a kitchen, bathroom, and a place to sleep that you can travel and sleep in. An ethnic neighborhood has many different races and nationalities living in it. Room count is probably the number of rooms or bedrooms--I'm not sure--if the number is less than 5, they probably mean bedrooms. Sep dining room means that the dining room is a different room than the kitchen. In a "country kitchen" there's a place for the dining room table in the same big room as the kitchen. With a separate dining room, there is probably a wall between the kitchen and the dining room.
Thanks for using the blog. I'm really happy to answer questions!
Thanks for your friendly answer. Sometimes English is very difficult so I often feel heavy.
But I like to learn English. You are a good teacher for me.
