Pronunciation

Portrait /ˈpɔːr.trɪt

I was 7 years old when I started playing piano. I started playing piano because some of my friends some could play  piano very good, so I wanted to play it better than them. It’s very hard to play a piano. Sometimes I play my  piano for an hour. In my school before this holiday I am sometimes playing the piano but now I always playing the piano at home. I like to draw people but I like to draw imaginary people.
