accesorios de hygiene = HYGIENE ACCESSORIES (is it correct?)

estoy de dieta = I AM ON DIET. (is it correct?)

ESTOY HACIENDO DIETA = I AM DOING DIET (is it correct?)

ESTOY HACIENDO EJERCICIOS= I AM DOING EXERCISES (is it correct?)

I am bilingual. - or - I am multilingual (not that commonly said though)

"toiletries" is OK, so is "personal hygiene products"

"I am on A diet" AND "I am dieting"!! Diet is also a verb!!!

And "I am exercising" is better than "I am doing exercises" - I am doing exercises could mean homework, mental exercises or physical ones... you need to specify if you use it with "do".

Cheers,

Linda
