Naturally, there will always be grammar Nazis, but even then there is the Great American Pastime of carefully crafting sentences in order to effect a response from an unwary grammar Nazi, hoping for one to jump out with a corrective, only with a quip waiting to explain to them why they are in fact wrong. =P

Good luck with your studies! Read a lot of books and blogs and you’ll be speaking excellent English in no time!

P.S.: Looks like your english is getting better from post to post.

“One more reason for loving Canada”. Whilst this is not technically incorrect, it’s more idiomatic to say “One more reason to love Canada”.

“I was looking for a way to hear the CBC”. Again, not technically incorrect, but you probably wanted to use the “listen to” there rather than “hear”. If you need a way to hear the CBC, it suggests that you might have a problem with your ears
“I usually hear it on the way for the college on my Generic Ipod)”. Say “to college”, not “for the college”.

“some informations”. This is something that non-native speakers of English often get wrong. It’s NEVER informations, ALWAYS information (without the s). I suppose it’s confusing because you think of it as a plural concept, but it isn’t, really - it’s one mass of data.

“they only let two options to choose for”. This is not correct and would never be said. You could say “They only let you choose two options” or “They only give two options from which to choose”.

“I don’t know why, mplayer neither vlc weren’t able to open it”. The word ‘neither’ is not used on its own like that, in between two options - you’d pair it with ‘nor’; and you wouldn’t use the comma; and you wouldn’t use the double negative (neither … weren’t). You’d say something like this - “I don’t know why neither mplayer NOR vlc WERE able to open it”.

“Was only a matter of running the command”. You should say “IT was only a matter..”

“I would like to let here my sincerely congratulations to the CBC.ca staff for making their content available”. You use ‘let’ in a way that English doesn’t allow. Basically, don’t use the word ‘let’ unless you’re sure it’s part of an idiomatic phrase you’ve heard before. If you haven’t seen it before in that structure, it’s likely that some other verb should be used in translation. Also, ’sincerely’ is an adverb, but ‘congratulations’ is a noun, so you need to use the adjective ’sincere’. So you would say “I would like to GIVE here my SINCERE congratulations to the CBC.ca staff…”

Anyway, your English is far better than my Portuguese or Spanish, so congratulations

Some notes on your English as requested:

“on the way for the college” should be “on the way to the college”

“some informations” should be “some information” (’information’ is a mass noun, and doesn’t have a plural)

“mplayer neither vlc” should be “neither mplayer nor vlc” (some English speakers will say “neither mplayer or vlc” but strictly ‘either’ and ‘or’ are a pair and ‘neither’ and ‘nor’ are a pair).

“runing” is spelled “running” (maybe just a typo)

“going in File…” should be “going to File…”

“I would like to let here my sincerely congratulations” should be “I would like to give my sincere congratulations here”

“putting it on the comments” should be “putting it in the comments”

That is a double negative. It should be:

I don’t know why, neither mplayer or vlc were able to open it

I told you that there could be mistakes.

they only let two options to choose for
they only allow two options to choose from

I don’t know why, mplayer neither vlc weren’t able to open it
I don’t know why, neither mplayer or vlc weren’t able to open it

I would like to let here my sincerely congratulations to the CBC.ca staff
I would like to say here my sincerely congratulations to the CBC.ca staff

I must state that I am not an English expert. Some of my corrections above may be wrong and there may be other errors that I have not identified. Your English is very good. In fact, it is better than allot of the English I hear every day here in England. Keep up the good work! BTW, I origionally spotted this post on Planet Ubuntu.
