Re:HELP: When bad like good?
I would say like, manipulate, or distort the situation, but I'm not sure if I understand what you're asking.

Re:HELP: When bad like good?
Hypocrisy is "the practice of professing standards, beliefs, etc, contrary to one's real character or actual behaviour." (Webster's Dictionary)
For example:
If I told you that it wasn't good to stand on top of a desk, but then later I stand on top of a desk, I would then be considered a hypocrite. I would be pretending to have some virtue when realistically I am doing the opposite.
Does that help? That was kind of difficult to explain.

Re:having more efficent speaking activities in language classrooms...
Give every one of your student 50 points in 1 point(paper looking like money for exemple). When they talk other langage than english, you take away 1 point. The student that have the most points left after a disgnated period (after half school year for exemple)win a prize.

Translation of a poem Persian - English (or Spanish) HELP!
Hello,
I need help translating a very short Iranian poem (9 lines). It was given to me by a very dear friend of mine, who recently passed away, and I don't know anyone else that speaks Persian.
I tried google translation, but I'm not even sure I'm typing the right characters as the letters are confusing to me.
Anyway, please let me know if you can help me.
