90 day's training: Day 18
Could you please check my sentences? Thanks in advance. 🐰
1) Today I wanted to watch a DVD but I didn't have enough time for it. Instead of it I listened to some classic music CDs while doing something else.
2) I washed my car. Unfortunately, when I was wiping it (background action), it started to rain (interrupting action) (use the past progressive to describe the ongoing action and the simple past to describe the interrupting action). It was a sun shower.
3) According to a dictionary, a sun shower means that it rains while the sun is shining. It is called 'fox's marriage' in Japanese.
4) Do you have any other interesting expressions like that in your country? Could you tell me other English idioms?
5) I found some English books which I bought a long time ago. It must be more helpful to expand my vocabulary than just writing texts every day.
