Philomena


Hi, everybody! Glad to join you in this language learning group. I am learning French as well as English.I've attained an OK score in the GRE test and been preparing for the TOEFL test. Still, I am just a French beginner.

Here I wanna say something about my English name, Philomena[.filə'mi:nə]. The meaning of the name is "Mighty Love"(强烈的爱).It is derived from Greek words, which means "lovely thoughts"(可爱的思想)。

This name perfectly presents my personality, that is, with strong desires. And my view of love is to love with heart and soul. In addition, my Chinese name has 16 strokes, "P" is exactly right the sixteenth letter in the English alphabet. Therefore, I choose the name beginning with P.

"Lovely thoughts" sounds great, right? I have been theelonking whether it is childish when it comes to the word "lovely". Anyway I am a grown-up already. Haha! However, just take a minute to think about it, "lovely thoughts" is actually a profound expression. That's what I'm yearning for life itself. It would take me a long time to grasp the real significance of the words.

OK,that's the way. I gave myself the English name, Philomena!
