I would like to tell about Twilight, the most popular series for teenagers and adults which starts next series about vampires.

Twilight is a a series of four fantasy romance novel written by American author Stephenie Meyer.  Also, Summit Entertainment realised adaptation of books in five parts.

Isabella „Bella” Swan moves from Phoenix to live with her father in Forks. She is different that other teenagers, she is very calm and shy. One day, she meets a Edward  Cullen, who for unexplained reasons avoid her. She wants to know why and she starts to search answers why Edward is different that other people and avoid her. His reason why he avoid her is because he doesn’t want to expose Bella to danger.

Later, Edward and Bella are in love and he is fascinated by Bella because she is the only person who understand him.  He can’t understand how she can loves him. The four books tells a story of love of Bella and Edward.

Why this books are so popular? Maybe the reason is that for a lot of people this topic is very interesting. In public press we can read a lot of this books. The general opinion is negative but the number of copies of books speak for themselves.

How to learn foreign language every day?

How to learn foreign language every day? The best option is learn language every day, and practise when we can. It’s normal that not every day we have enough time, but we should try to find time to learn.

I have a few advices how we can learn foreign language:

1.      We can learn language during shopping. For example: when we do shopping and we don’t know how to translate a name of a product we can write it down and later check in dictionary.

2.      We should try translate everything what we see and what we do in everyday life. It is a very good idea to have small notebook, where we can write down words which we can’t translate. This option is very useful when we want to have varied vocabulary.

3.      The next idea are films and series. For me this option is the best. I am actually studying Spanish philology and watching films and series for me  is a manner of learning a language. Usually I watch  films with subtitles or I choose original films. I know that this helps me to understand a foreign language better and learn new phrases. When I am watching  film or a series I can hear a pronunciation of words of actors and learn colloquial phrases.

4.      Also, we can read in foreign language. We have a lot of options. For example, we can choose a book, newspaper or magazine. Everything depend on our level of language. If our level of language is elementary we can learn books with translation. In this book we have translation of difficult  vocabulary.

5.      The new help in learning are podcasts. On the Internet we can find a lot of pages which offers podcasts and we can download them.

We have a lot of options to learn foreign language, but the most important is regularity.
