Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Learn the alphabet and the spelling conventions. Go back to the basics again. Write it out, speak it aloud, and practice.

Answer: Various languages sound different and look different as well. Just as you learned the ABC’s as a child, learning the alphabet of your intended language is the first place to start. You may encounter a few characters you’ve never seen before, or the language may look totally different to what you know.  Identify characters that you do not have in your native language. For example, English speakers will recognize the letter ‘n’, while Spanish speakers need to know both ‘n’ and ‘ñ’, and French speakers will have to know ‘ç’ in addition to ‘c’. Understand the function of these characters in a word and how they are pronounced. Directly learning the sounds of the language and the letters those sound sequences represent will facilitate spelling. Just as a child learns to spell in his native language, you will need to start at the beginning. Breaking down words into syllables through exaggerated pronunciation and exploring patterns of pronunciation and spelling will help you learn to spell in any language.  Review spelling patterns and the correlation between pronunciation and spelling. Break words down and identify any root words, if possible. Identify and pay specific attention to non-phonetic words. Understanding the spelling patterns and conventions of the language will help you identify these words. Use mnemonic devices or repetition to memorize both these patterns and the words to which they patterns apply. Be patient. Learning how to memorize the spelling of a word in your native language took time and effort. This will too. It is best if you can have your written or spoken spelling checked by a native speaker. A native speaker will have a more keen sense of how to convey the conventions of his or her language and will be able to more effectively identify patterns of mistakes that you may be making in your spelling.  Speak with a native speaker to ensure that you are pronouncing words correctly. Read in the language you wish to learn, and identify complex words for spelling practice. Practice spelling words by writing them in a notebook and testing yourself. Have a friend (and if possible, a native speaker) give you a spelling test out loud. This will help you better associate pronunciation and spelling.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use an aluminum free deodorant or antiperspirant. Wear less deodorant or antiperspirant. Take preventative measures. Wear a less expensive undershirt. Treat your stain every time you wash.

Answer: Stains are actually created by perspiration reacting to the aluminum found in most deodorants and antiperspirants. The combination of the protein found in your sweat combining with the aluminum creates the yellow stain. Tom’s of Maine makes an aluminum free line of deodorant. Caking on the deodorant or antiperspirant could lead to worse discoloration. Try to use sparingly. Excess deodorant will only cling onto your clothing and create more stains. Before wearing, after washing, turn the garment inside out. Sprinkle baby powder liberally over armpit areas and iron. This works best for cotton or cotton blend fabrics. To keep stains away from nicer dress shirts, use an undershirt as a buffer zone between your sweat and the garment. Wash stained garment immediately after wearing and pretreat with a stain removal product, such as OxiClean or Spray and Wash. Fresh stains are far easier to treat than old ones. By consistently treating the stain, you keep the garment clean and prevent it from settling into the fabric.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Look approachable. Ask her to join you. Get close to your girl. Caress your girl. Read her reactions.

Answer:
Your girl needs to know you want to snuggle! Pick a spot where it’s clear there’s room for two. Keep your body open by spreading your arms out and your legs a little bit apart to expand the snuggle territory. Avoid crossing your legs or arms, which can make you look closed off and unapproachable. If your girl hesitates to come closer, pat the seat next to you or gesture for her to come closer. You could even say, “Come join me.” Smile and make eye contact when she sits next to you. Scoot in close to your girl or put your arm around the back of the couch, for example, so she can snuggle in to your side. You could also hold her hand or put your hand on her leg. Do what feels comfortable and natural for both of you. Now that you've gotten closer, you can show your girl that you love having her near. Caress her arm, shoulder, the small of her back, or her hair. You could even give her a gentle massage. If you and the girl have just begun dating each other, you’ll need to read her reactions to determine what she is comfortable with and what she enjoys. If at any point she looks uncomfortable or moves away from you, back off. Take cues from her, such as putting your arm around her once she leans into your body, or reaching for her hand when she puts it near yours.
