Re:Re:Looking for some friends help me to study English and Urdu!
Oh sorry! I have to fix my last post.
The only time you will be adding "be" is when the verb after it has the suffix "-ing" at the end.
For example:
I will be going to the store.
I will be sleeping later.
But if the verbs do not have ing, they don't need "be".
Examples:
I will go to the store.
I will sleep later.
There.
The only time I think "be" would not go with "-ing" is when you're meaning to "stay somewhere".
I will be at home.
I will be in school.
I will be around the restaurant after work.
In this form, "be" is used to mean you are somewhere. With the "be" and "-ing" rule, it is implying that you are doing something.
I hope this helps!

Re:Looking for some friends help me to study English and Urdu!
Hello Annie! I can help you speak English! But sorry, I am not a Gold Member.
Correction: I'll be waiting online. Thanks everyone!
You would add "be" before waiting because you are using the word "will".
I'll is a contraction of "I will", so it also counts.
Also, there wouldn't be a comma between the two sentences because there is no contraction holding the sentence together.
You could do:
I'll be waiting online. Thanks everyone!
I'll be waiting online, and thanks everyone! ("And" is a contraction because it holds the two sentences together.)

Re:hello everyone
Dr. Maria,
How are you? I have a joke for you that I learned when I was in China...it's not really a joke, just a funny saying about the south of China... I was told that in Kunming, they eat everything with legs but the table; in Guangzhou, they eat everything, whether it has legs or not.
I live in the USA (Missouri); I lived in Beijing for one year; I visited Tianjin, but never visited Harbin. I hear it's beautiful during the ice festival in the winter.
