countries he visited and wrote works in different languages.
● For you not to be barred by immigration officers when travelling
abroad, you need to renew your travel permit by going to the
embassy of the country you are planning to visit.
● Speak only the truth. Otherwise, you will be called a fraudulent
child.
● Mother always prepares baon for her child. Indeed, her ardor for
her child is unfailing.
● My opponent’s argument is fallacious.
