Hi, loving everyone!^^ I'm 19years old, a Japanese Otaku.
I'm a high school graduate who is preparing for another chance to enter a college.(This is called "Rounin" in Japan, a masterless Samurai is also called "Rounin".)
I made every effort to enter college, but college refused me, because I couldn't read/write English well.
So, I want you to speak to me easily, and point out my wrong.
You can ask me everything! I'm not a grim person.^^ I love you all.(^ε^)
come on! come on everybody!
Do you think this sentences childish?
...oh,excursus.
I like WWE,progressive rock. thanks for reading
>>The national character joke
Using a definite article means there is only one such joke, an indefinite article should be used instead. The use of the noun "national character" as an adjective is permissible here, but "joke about national character" sounds more natural.
>>The fire occurred to some ship.
It is a hypothetical fire, not a specific fire, so use an indefinite article. "to" is the wrong preposition, use "on" instead. ("to" is a very complicated preposition, it would take a long time for me to explain all the ways you can use it). "some ship" is correct, but sounds weak, "a ship" would be better.
>>For the captain to make a passenger dive into the sea smoothly
As this is the start of a list, there should be a colon at the end of the sentence. "Smoothly" is ambiguous here, it could mean diving with good form, or diving without complaint. By changing the word order we can make it obvious it means diving without complaint. "For the captain to smoothly make a passenger dive into the sea:".
>>In the English " The gentleman dives in such a case ".
When we are using "English" as an abbreviation for "the English language", the article is omitted. The same applies for all language names. Because we are talking about a hypothetical gentleman not a specific gentleman, an indefinite article is used.
>>In the German " It gets to dive into the sea in the rule ".
I don't understand. Do you mean "Diving into the sea is required by the rules"?
>>When Italian " The beauty dived a short while ago ".
"A beauty dived a short while ago."
>>When American " It becomes a hero if diving into the sea ".
"You become a hero by diving into the sea.", or if you want to avoid "you" to make it sound impersonal, "One may become a hero by diving into the sea", although this sounds somewhat archaic.
>>In Russian " It is in time in now of the bottle of the vodka had been floated down. if chasing ".
"If you dive now, you will be in time to chase the bottle of vodka which is floating below."
>>When French " You don't dive into the sea ".
"You may not dive into the sea."
In the Japanese " All dived already ".
"Everyone dived already."
In the Chinese " The fish which seems good is swimming ".
"The fish swimming below seem good."
In the North Korean " Now is the chance of the asylum ".
"Now is the chance for asylum."
>>The sailor " But a Korean is of captain! still left! "
The sailor and the captain are both hypothetical, so again use an indefinite article.
"But the Korean captain is still left!"
(the captain is a specific captain to the sailor in the joke, so he uses a definite article).
The captain " It is possible to leave alone "
>>The sailor " Because of what is it? "
This is correct, but sounds very unnatural. "Why is that?" sounds better.
>>The captain " A claim has been done, saying the inconveniencing. clothes surviving were wet ".
I don't understand this.
My take on this.

A joke about national character:
A fire breaks out on a ship, and the Captain must quickly convince passengers of different nationalities to abandon ship.
He says to the Englishman:
"A gentleman always dives into the sea."
To the German:
"You must dive into the sea. It's the rules."
To the Italian:
"A beautiful women dived in a short while ago."
To the American:
"If you dive into the sea, you'll be celebrated as a hero."
To the Russian:
"If you're quick, you can grab the bottle of vodka that's floating away."
To the Japanese:
"Everyone else is diving."
To the Chinese:
"All the good fish are swimming."
And to the North Korean:
"Now's your chance to gain Asylum!"
The First Mate speaks up, "A South Korean is still hasn't abandoned ship, Captain."
The Captain replies, "Leave him be."
"Why, Captain?", he asks.
The Captain explains, "He claimed that he would be inconvenienced by his clothes getting wet."
