If all the detail in those links doesn’t help you, I suggest you rephrase the question, rather than just repeat it. It seems you want more than general information.
(A) Even if I tell him the truth, he will not believe me.
Here I am sure that he will not believe me. Right?
(B) Even if I told him the truth, he would not believe me.
Here … I did not tell him the truth. Right?
© Rehana : Why didn’t you tell me the truth?
Tony : Because Even if I told you the truth, you wouldn't believe me.
Does this phrase sound ok to you?
A - right
B - probably but it’s not as definite. You might not have told him anything.
C - the grammar is okay but it’s a poor excuse for not being truthful! 
Thanks Ma’am,

Hello!
I have made the following sentence. I want to use on a page.
“News, IT and other interesting things in Hungarian and sometimes in English.”
ú
Is this correct?
Well, it’s okay but I wouldn’t choose to use it, especially if it’s a title, which it looks as if it might be.
I’d need more of an idea about how it’s to be used to make a suggestion though.
I will make a twitter account and I want this sentence as a describe. I want to share articles, mobile phone tests in Hungarian and English language.
I’d just stick to:
Interesting news and chat in Hungarian and occasionally in English.
Are the following phrases correct?
1 Shouldn’t she be working on that project?
2 Shouldn’t you be studying now?
3 Shouldn’t he be at work?
4 You should be making things better, then.
5 You should be working to make things better, then.
How is Should is used here? to give advise or make suggestions?
Sometimes (as here) there is no significant difference between giving advice and making a suggestion.
In these cases, whether the advice/suggestion is seen as a criticism or not, and is acted on or not, would depend on who was speaking and the overall context.
Thanks Ma’am,

(A) Amit : why is your girl friend so cruel?
Me : Such is girl friend. (Girl friends are like such or Girl friends are like that)
(B) Me : My girl friend is so cruel.
Amit : Why are girl friends like such? ( Why are girl friends like that?)1 is okay.

Why are girlfriends like that?
Thanks Ma’am,
Your answers have been useful to me.
Q 1
Is Kind of (kinda) very similar to Rather/Quite/Pretty/Fairly?
Q 2 Are the following phrases right? Do they sound like native?
(a) I'd rather not go to the cinema, then go shopping.
(b) I'd prefer not to go the cinema, then go shopping.
Q 3 Is there any difference between these two phrases?
(a) I'd prefer coffee.
(b) I prefer coffee.‘kind of’ is less formal. ‘Kinda’ is extremely informal and should not be used in writing, unless it is to emphasise someone’s dialect in speech.
I’m not sure that you mean what you are actually indicating in 2! It means I don’t want to go to the cinema first and go shopping afterwards.
I’d rather not go to the cinema followed by shopping. Can we go shopping on a different day.
I prefer coffee - in general
I’d (I would) prefer coffee - on the specific occasions being discussed or in general over the oher option being discussed.
Thanks again,
Q 1 In the following phrases, does the noun ( I and She) wants to do so or the noun (I and She) thinks that there is a good chance to do so?
(a) I hope to see you tomorrow.
(b) She’s hoping she won’t be away from the classroom for too long.
In my previous post, there was a typo. anyway I have just learned a new thing. Sometimes It’s good to make a mistake.
Q 2 What do I mean here? I want to go shopping, not the cinema, right?
- (a) I’d rather not go to the cinema, than go shopping.
Q 3 Do both following phrases convey the same message?
(a) Would you rather take his gift than mine?
(b) Would you rather take his gift or mine?-
In both cases it is a hope. There is no indication of the rate of probability.
-
if you want to go shopping but not go to the cinema then you need to say something like this:
I’d rather not go to the cinema as I’d prefer to go shopping.
I’d prefer to go shopping than to visit the cinema. -
No, they don’t.
a) asks if the preference is for his gift.
b) asks which gift the person would like.
Thanks again, Ma’am,

(b) The older is in and the younger is outside. (Q 4 How do you say if there are more than two children.)1a - OK
1b - OK, though the definition is not totally logical and I would say ‘I am from the UK but of Indian descent/ my family was originally from India’.
1c/d OK - though more naturally “He is disguised as a beggar.”
- Pretty much, usually.
3a - OK
3b - doesn’t make any sense.
