我是美国留学生。我在上海大学学习汉语。我觉得汉语的 发音很难，汉字很容易， 汉语的语法不太难。我要买东西。上午十点我 瞿颖行换钱。十二点我跟朋友一起 佐自行车去商店。我买五支铅笔，两本课本和三个包子。

下午我 去公园。 下午七点我 回宿舍。

我吃一宛面条儿。

是一点我睡觉。

我很愉快和很累。

It is not bad at all. Consider the coloured parts (most are typos) ->

下午我 去了公园。 晚上七点我 回到宿舍。

I wonder 而 here is kind of ambiguous. 而 is a disjunctive "but". If "but' is put in the sentence, it will be semantically contradictory. I think the poster meant "and", so shouldn't it be translated as "而且". However, once again, 而且 in the context is a bit awkward to me. We don't express Chinese that way. Maybe some Chinese words should be added into the context to make it sound more natural. My opinion is as follows:

我是美国留学生。我在上海大学学习汉语。我觉得汉语的 发音雖然 很难，但是汉字卻很容易， 而且汉语的语法也不太难。

Just an opinion Hopefully, I don't twist what the poster tried to convey. .

hey how do u use 了 ？？

[skylee]

Take a look ->

All "Simple," yet confusing grammar rules

Grammar #4: 了

[ruoxi]

i noticed that u did type those letters out rather than write them,otherwise u might not come up with as hard characters as 瞿颖.and if u put more efforts with a pen,u may learn more and may not find they are easy to write.

P.S: why chose shanghai university?

我觉得"骑自行车＂　而不是＂坐自行车＂
