Interculture Melitopol

For about a year Melitopol has been taking part in the international program organized by the Council of Europe and the society "Democracy through culture". The goal of the project "Interculture Cities" is cooperation and experience trading among the cities and the world countries in order to _decide_ _(resolve?)_ various national problems.

_To say_ _(Saying?)_, that Melitopol _has been_ _(was?)_ chosen from _(among?)_ all of the cities of Ukraine as the most worthy _one_ _(?)_, is no more than illusion. Definitely not all of the cities _gave_ _(submitted?)_ application forms to participate _in_ _(?)_ the program "Interculture cities". And, naturally, Kiev has way more nationalities than we do. But nevertheless…

Representatives of 100 various nationalities and 21 cultural national societies live in our city…Melitopol can be really proud of this _(that?)_.

Within the framework of the project, Melitopol _has been_ _(was?)_ visited by the European delegations already two times. Representatives of the center of development "Democracy through culture" have listened to the ethnic-oriented projects by Melitopolians _(inhabitants of Melitopol?)_. Some of them will be realized in the near future. For example, the trilingual site, international booklets and calendars. Others still remain dreams. Namely: creation of unique interculture parks, business centre, transportation. Europeans _have been_ _(was?)_ surprised by the fact that national problems virtually do not exist in Melitopol. All societies live in the world and friendship, despite of their _amount_ _(quantity?)_ and variety. _Apart from_ _(Besides?)_ Ukraine; Serbia, Poland, Egypt, Canada, the Great Britain, France and other countries participate _in_ _(?)_ the international program too.

  1. For _approximately_ a year, Melitopol has been taking part in the international program organized by the Council of Europe and the society "Democracy through Culture."  The goal of the project, "Intercultural Cities,' is cooperation and experience in trading amongst the cities as well as world countries, in order to resolve various national problems.

    To declare that Melitopol was chosen from all of the cities of Ukraine as the most commendable, is not more than an illusion.  Definitely not all of the cities submitted application forms to participate in the program, "Interculture Cities,' and naturally, Kiev has many more nationals than Melitopol.  Nonetheless, representatives of 100 various nationalities and 21 cultural national societies in our city; Melitopol can truly be proud of this.

    Within the framework of this project, Melitopol was visited twice by the European delegations.  Representatives of the Center of Development-"Democracy through Culture," have listened to the ethnic-oriented projects by Melitopolians.  Some of which will be realized in the near furture; for example, the trilingual site, international booklets and calendars, to name a few.  Others will remain dreams, namely, creation of unique intercultural parks, business centers and transportation.  

    Many Europeans were suprised by the fact that national problems virtually do not exist in Melitopol.  All societies live in a world and are friendly, despite their differences.  Apart from Ukraine; Serbia, Poland, Egypt, Canada, Great Britain, France and several other countries participate in the international program as well.

    You did rather well, the usage of grammar is what is slightly different when writing in english; for example in english General Hospital is used correctly, but in other languages the word Hospital is used before General.  Commas and periods go within the parenthesis not outside of them.


  2. For about a year Melitopol has been taking part in the international program organized by the Council of Europe and the society "Democracy through culture". The goal of the project "Interculture Cities" is cooperation and experience trading among the cities and the world countries in order to alleviate various national problems.

    To say that Melitopol was chosen from amongst all of the cities of Ukraine as the most worthy one is no more than illusion. Definitely not all of the cities gave application forms to participate in the program "Interculture cities". And, naturally, Kiev has considerably more nationalities than we do. But nonetheless…

    Edit - sorry "was" - also I think the sixth from last word - you mean "participating" rather than "participate".

    Edit2: yes "in peace and friendship" would be fine. If you would like an off line discussion about anything please give me an email address.

    Edit3: "has way more nationalities" - it's not absolutely wrong but it smacks of late 1980s American youth culture (see movie Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure), it sounds sloppy in a paper that addresses a serious subject.

    Edit4: picking up on another commentator. The full stops go inside the brackets ONLY if the entire sentence is in the brackets - otherwise it goes outside.

  3. Whoa.....

    i do not know that

    O.o

    sorry
