Dobrý den, je tu někdo, kdo by mi pomohl zkontrolovat neformální dopis do angličtiny? :') Informal Letter Dear Renata, thanks for your answer to my letter. I hope I’ll see you soon. Your question was who is your (my) favourite family member. So I tell it to you. My favourite family member is my dad. Maybe you are now asking why? So i will discribe him to you and you will soon understand me. I like him because he‘s kind, cheerful, kind-harted and always smiling. He‘s learnt me many things about life, world and makes my future better and easier for me. He always helps me when I need and learns me many things which i can use in my future. I can rely on him. He‘s most reliable member of my family you know. :‘) Dad has learnt me how to cook, how to take care about garden, how to do everything I need to do. He is my superhero of this. Now you understand me why I write you about him. Than you asked me, how does he look like. I thought that you have already seen him but you didn’t so i will try to describe him to you. He’s 49. Is quite tall and has an oval face. On his face are two honestly blue eyes. He has a small smiling mouth and nose which is dominating on his face. Also has a beard and a bald. Oh I almost forget I need to tell you something more about his look. He has a beer belly, which looks really funy. He likes beer. So now you can imagine him. The other question was what does he do. So keep reading. He works as an electrician in a sugar factory in Prosenice. Dad works there about 7 years. He likes to work there but now he’s very tired because he works 5 days per weak 8 hours a day. That’s why he is sleepy and bored now a days. Before he has worked at the airport in Přerov (Bochoř). But because the airport should be canceled, he had to go on. This is all about him.  If you will have other questions, write to me. You know that i like to answer your questions about our family members. Also you could come to visit us. What about 5.11. – 7.11.? Is it ok? Best wishes, Jamie
