Good work!

everyday i want to learn somthing new. good suggestion.
@winy

That's wonderful @winy. So, I would say that the suggestion would be to learn these words: (1) appetite, (2) petition, and (3) compete.

And make a sentence out of it to show your understanding of the meaning of each word.

Have a wonderful day!

This article is very interesting. I'm learning English right now. Thank you very much.
