  • Helping the orphans in India?

    My friend is working in Dubai.. and he is very much interested in helping orphans and old age people in India. His plan is to collect money from his friends and relatives in Duba on a monthly basis and send them to some reliable sources in India to distribute to orphanages.

    Will there be any problem in sending money which is gathered personally by an individual? He also has a future vision in developing a organization which will collect money from Indians living in UAE on a monthly basis.

  • How to develop my vocabulary?

    Vocabulary! Other than this word no other would enter or stay in my mind for usage when I communicate or write. I have asked this same question in many english forums and didnt get any positive replies.People advised me to write down new words and read them again and again to remember them. I tried and it didnt work for me. And someone said .. record the words in your voice and listen to them.. didnt work as well. I couldnt remember the new words..

    When I speak with people I use very simple words .. my sentences are always long.. when they respond to me they use words which would cut down the usage of lengthy sentences.. there answers are short and sweet.. I would like to become the same!

    How should I learn, practice and remember new words which would help me in avoiding lengthy talks especially on social media and writing emails?
