Hi guys!
I'd like to give you something different to practice English, so I would you listen a link below and write me back at least five new words or expressions you'll learn in this lyric. However, you must create five different sentences using them, and send me back.
Any doubt, just ask me.
Good luck for all of you!

I looked at the people around me. Nobody seemed to notice. Maybe it wasn't him. Well, it it wasn't him, it sure looked like him! I glanced again at the people behind me. There was a forty-year-old woman, two old men, and a little girl. When I saw the girl's face, I realized that it had to be Brad Pitt: she was staring at him with her mouth open.

Can you find any mistakes? (between & among)
Read a paragraph by Student Carlos:
Nowourdays the violence is a principal cause of death betwen youth people. They are always around the corner, causing accidents of traffic. The violence can be seen also in the home, where there are a sort of opportunities which are allowed to raise the violence, like having gum, collecting boozes, growing superficial relationships. We need to end up this situation.
** Correct it and leave me a message in this blog, or by email, please!
Between or Among:
Carlos says: between youth people
The correct preposition is: AMONG young people.
* This is because we use BETWEEN when we are talking about two things, and AMONG when we are talking about three or more things.
Here are some examples with BETWEEN:
BETWEEN you and me, I think he's an idiot.
The US is BETWEEN Mexico and Canada;
When you go to the movies, the kids sit between thir mother and father.
Here are some more examples about AMONG:
Oranges are very popular fruit among Americans.
Among my freinds, you are the one I trust most.
Suicide is a leading cause of death among young people.
Vocabulary:
*Booze: (slang) School;
* Suicide: the act of killing yourself;
*Violence: behavior that can hurt people physically;
* gun: a firearm;
