Is this correct English, if it isn't PLEASE correct me! I must learn it for tomorrow. A bit late to ask it, i know! But helppp me!:
'' We are adults, we will divide everything. Anna will clean up and I will cook''
''Psychology? Wow, I think that's a very difficult subject. Where do you want to study that?''
Psychology is an uncountable noun.
''I was thinking about that too, but I have my doubts. How much is a single room?''
''Arhnem and Utrecht are the two best places to study psychology. ''
If something is "the best" (superlative) then it is being measured against something else. In this sentence you speak of the two best schools, but then state that they're the only two schools: this sounds strange; what are they the best psychology schools in relation to if they're the only schools which offer courses in psychology? Perhaps you just mean the only two good schools. Either use only two good schools or remove the only (I've made another modification too).
''That's a city near Hilversum''
Without context it's hard to say if this is appropriate but it's certainly grammatical.
''If I don't pass the exams I will have to do the year again.''
''It's not a case of life and death''
''But I get her point. My opinion is that everyone has to get a diploma. There are countries where children are begging for an education. A good education is very important now in this society.''
''I'm going to study Psychology in Amsterdam''
''It's an intresting study. I want to become a psychologist, and help other people. it gives me a good feeling if I help them with something they can't do alone.''
''I remember that when I was at the primary school I wanted to be a princes. The teacher said that that could be possible If I married a prince.''
''Hmm, the perfect age to get married: 20 or 21. I don't think you should look at the age. I mean, a person from 28 years old can still be a child in his mind. You must have responsibility, and patience in a marriage, and you have to be able to share everything. Like the kitchen, rooms and bathroom. ''
''I don't want to have kids. I rather adopt them. A little girl from China would be lovely.''
''Maybe. I don't know actually. That whole pregnancy is something scary''
Not sure about this one. More context?
''Well, in China they kill children. They have a law there that says each family may only have one child, and most families want a boy.''
''The fact is that most of the people kill there first child or take it to an orphanage (?) if it's a girl. So I want to adopt a girl to save her life. Here she has the ability to study.''
'' I dont't know. I'm young so maybe I will change my mind in a couple of years.''
