Speaking English language is different from writing it without any spelling and grammatical mistakes. You need sheer practice to excel yourself in English language. This is possible by continual reading, writing, speaking English, I mean, though you do not know it perfectly, try to practice it regularly. It is not always possible to do ask someone’s help to correct your mails or writings for spelling and grammar errors. Hence, you should take help of software and internet who can solve your problem. Using of MS Word and some sites like spellchecker can solve your problem to an extent but they are very limited. Lack of artificial intelligence is the main drawback of these tools.

I have found software which will solve these problems. It comprises several writing tools, such as a dictionary, a thesaurus and ready-made letter templates; its core feature is its advanced English grammar checker. It works on Natural Language Processing technology. WhiteSmoke cannot detect all errors. Please remember that this software is not going to solve all your problems completely but this will handle all the major issues in your writings and converts your un-interesting and errors into professional writings. This software is compatible with all the operating systems. If you want to use WhiteSmoke, then you have to open word processor applications like Notepad or MS Word, highlight the text you want to proofread and then click on F2 button. Whitesmoke will connect to the online server and gives some suggestion based on the scenario. There are many versions in this software, check out which suits you and get a copy of it!

Every decision that you take for your child is very crucial. Each of it will have a greater impact on their future. If you are trying to keep your child in a baby care center, then you must do a thorough check on the play school that you want to join your child and also see what kind of staff is working there. You ensure that the staff present there are qualified and good enough to take care of your child. It is tough to do background check on your own, so it is better to take help of some organization which will do this work and it eases your problems. Intelius is one such company which is lead by Naveen Jain, a MBA graduate. This organization empowers its consumers with online information for personal protection and intelligent decisions.

The reason why I mentioned this organization for the above kinds of situations is, it is doing a free background checks to the Boys & Girls Club of Bellevue. Naveen Jain, is presently the CEO of the Intelius, is the key person in taking this decision. Usually background checks and information about the care takers is costly but if you can get this for free, then you can use that money for philanthropic works. Boys & Girls Club employees and volunteers are responsible for a variety of duties, including coaching sports activities, leading after school tutoring and mentoring, and serving as general instructors, referees and scorekeepers. In less than three years of business, Intelius has gained more than three million customers who use Intelius’ information to protect their loved ones, businesses and assets.

Naveen Jain has worked in Microsoft before starting this company and is now heading a company is another example of successful entrepreneurship. I wish him all the best.

Figures of speech is a means of expressing ones thoughts and feelings by making use of words in their literal meaning or even out of their usual usage, in order to add emotional intensity or beauty or for transferring the poet’s impressions either by identifying or comparing a thing with another which has a meaning that is familiar to its reader.
A few important figures of speech include metaphor, simile, personification, symbol and hyperbole.

Simile: Simile is a figure of speech which is essentially used for comparing explicitly two unlike things. Usually words like ‘as’, ‘then’ and ‘like’ are used.

Examples: Her cheeks are like red roses.
It is as thick as the cloth

There are few similes in which a parallel comparison is extended and developed beyond the primary comparison and are also usually sustained through numerous lines. Such similes are known as Homeric similes or epic similes.

figures of speech

Metaphor: In these figures of speech, a phrase or a word is used for denoting an idea or an object to another, further suggesting an analogy or likeness between them.

Examples: Life is a journey, death is sleep
Difficulties are the obstacles and achievements are the landmarks.

Usually most of the metaphors are nouns; however, verbs can be metaphor too.

Personification: It is a kind of metaphor in which the unique and peculiar human characteristics such as honesty, volition and emotion and more, are imputed to an object, an animal or an idea.

Examples: My cell phone hates me
Flowers were dancing with the rain

Personification is commonly used in apologues.

Hyperbole (hi-PER-buh-lee):
Hyperbole is a deliberate and bold overstatement which is used basically as a mode of accenting the truth of the bold statement. Usually these sentences are not meant to be taken precisely

Examples: His mobile phone is million years old.
She told him the same thing thousands of times.

Adynaton is a kind of hyperbole, in which the overstatement is so greatly magnified that it starts referring to impossibility.

Alliteration:
Alliteration is also known as initial rhyme or head rhyme. It is the repetition of prime sounds, generally the consonants, of a stressed word that is either at a short interval or is in neighboring word.

Examples: Mary’s microphones made much music.
Peter poked his pen into him.

Alliteration provides strength and support to stresses, gratifies effect on sound and also serves as an elusive connection or stress of key words in a line, however, a word that is alliterated should not call any attention, by their strained usage, towards themselves.

Tongue twister is a phrase, sentence or a rhyme which is difficult to speak. The difficulty is more pronounced when the twister is repeatedly and quickly spoken. We will look at what it is that makes it a cool take.

Let’s start with a simple one:
“Whistle for the thistle sifter”

Did that get you going? Certainly the twisters vary in their difficulty leagues. The hardest tongue-twister according to Guiness book of world records is “The sixth sick sheikh’s sixth sheep’s sick”. But a few argue that the hardest one is “The seething sea ceaseth and thus the seething sea sufficeth us”

To appreciate the beauty of a twister you need to speak it loudly and quickly. Most of the times it proves to be comical error of sorts due to the similar phonetics of the words.
To appreciate a twister, a basic understanding of alliteration and rhyme will help immensely.

Alliteration and Rhyme:

Alliteration is a literary device constituting same consonant sound at the beginning of two or more words in close succession. “Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers…” Here the alliteration is with respect to the letter P. Alliteration is mainly used in poetry to create the effect with word play. But due care is exercised; its accidental usage often mars the beauty of writing. A rhyme is a repetition of similar sounding words. This technique is mostly used in songs. Both the alliteration and rhyme derives on repetitive play of sounds or words.

A tongue twister is generally designed in such a way that the reader is expected to stumble while pronouncing. Hence, tongue twisters can prove to be a very good medium for teaching elocution. Moreover, it also lays emphasis on pronunciation, so it effectively can also reduce speech defects.

Some common tongue twisters:

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

I saw Susie sitting in a shoe shine shop.
Where she sits she shines, and where she shines she sits.

Sheena leads, Sheila needs.

The thirty-three thieves thought that they thrilled the throne throughout Thursday.

Something in a thirty-acre thermal thicket of thorns and thistles thumped and thundered threatening the three-D thoughts of Matthew the thug — although, theatrically, it was only the thirteen-thousand thistles and thorns through the underneath of his thigh that the thirty year old thug thought of that morning.
