hi everyone|e
am here to suggest the foundation of an English Room in here. The name may seem a little bit odd, but i thought as one of the fundamental reasons of this saha’s existance is to improve our level in English, then this would be a good idea. Everyone could use this room to post anything that he or she think would be useful for others to know. For example, some interesting new vocabulary, or any such thing that you would like to share with others. I really hope that everyone welcomes the idea and I should be back soon with my first participation in [COLOR='00BFFF']T[/COLOR][COLOR='09B4FB']h[/COLOR][COLOR='11A8F7']e[/COLOR][COLOR='1A9DF3'] [/COLOR][COLOR='2391EF']E[/COLOR][COLOR='2B86EB']n[/COLOR][COLOR='347AE7']g[/COLOR][COLOR='3D6FE3']l[/COLOR][COLOR='3D62E3']i[/COLOR][COLOR='3454E7']s[/COLOR][COLOR='2B46EB']h[/COLOR][COLOR='2338EF'] [/COLOR][COLOR='1A2AF3']R[/COLOR][COLOR='111CF7']o[/COLOR][COLOR='090EFB']o[/COLOR][COLOR='0000FF']m[/COLOR]|a:D
