A: In this case, "charging" refers to carrying it a charge type attack -- a fast run or gallop (if on horseback) in order to close the distance to melee range, usually using the advantage of speed to increase the power of first strike.

A: “Turning someone against ~” means to make someone change from supporting someone to opposing someone

A: actually they mean different things. I think you are probably looking for "at someone". "snapped at" means he spoke in a certain way to them (angry, snappy). "snapped on" means he reached a breaking point of anger with them, since "snapped" can also mean someone who is normally calm is at their limit of anger.

A: ‘to seethe’ = to roll like boiling water!
(rarely used literally)

Here it means ‘to be extremely angry about something (on the inside)’

‘Her remarks were so insulting. I didn’t say anything at the time but I was seething.’

A: 'John blurted out the answer before the teacher could call on him'
'Nobody asked for her opinion, yet she blurted it out anyway'

A: "Though" operates the same way as "but", for example:

"Did she tell you the truth?"
"She promised she would. She didn't, though" = this sentence could also be written as "She promised she would, but she didn't" and it would have the same meaning

"He's a big star. Have you seen him?"
"No. I've heard of him, though" = this sentence could also be written as "No, but I've heard of him" and it would have the same meaning

"Did you go to the extra class?"
"I didn't have time. I wanted to go, though" = this sentence could also be written as "I didn't have time, but I wanted to go" and it would have the same meaning

A: @M2001:

"Jane has John at her fingertips." (John is always there for Jane, and obeys her every request and command.)

"She has the world at her fingertips." (She is free to do what she likes with the world.)

"Spotify's music player has every song you want, right at your fingertips." (You have full control over what songs you want to listen to.)

I hope this helps!

A: someone and somebody are interchangeable between themselves .

You will use anybody in a negative or interrogative sentence.
[USE OF "ANYBODY"]
Is there anybody in there?
I do not know anybody like that guy.


[USE OF SOMEONE AND SOMEBODY]
Hey, somebody put something in my drink!!
I lost someone.

A: More or less. The only distinction I can think of is that "someone" can carry the connotation that you have a specific person in mind (like the phrase "a certain someone/somebody"), whereas "anyone" is more general and is better to use if you don't have a specific person in mind.

A: I have to admit, I'm not sure about "put you up," I'd need more context on the conversation.
"Drop in" means to go see the person anytime with out an appointment or letting them know that you're coming by. The phrase "Drop in appointment" is commonly used by businesses like hair salons where you can get a service done without making an appointment first.

A: The second phrase is more hypothetical, and we usually use it when talking about more unlikely situations. "If someone were to say 'I've always loved you' to your face, how would you feel?" The first is more conditional, e.g. "If someone said 'Hi' to me on the street, I would say 'Hi' back." You could use "If someone said" for hypothetical situations too, though, in casual English.

A: It's pretty much the same meaning. I guess the difference is "get them to do it" is active like u go out and persuade them. "Have someone do it" is passive

A: yes this sounds natural

A: If they are sending you a gift, you would say "I'm looking forward to it!"
I think in English the phrase closest to it would be "Please look out for it!" or "Keep an eye out for it!" if you are sending someone a gift
you can also say "I can't wait for your reaction" or "Tell me how you like it" :)

A: Yes! That's perfectly fine since you're describing an actual fact and it's not meant as an insult.

A: 2. I think is "who's"
there is someone outside who's car has broken down
4. here you should use "to a great extent"
5. here it would be "the police, from which I learnt nothing..."
6. here you would use "in my way"
7. here you would use "To whomever it may concern" when you address a letter and you don't know who it is to

hope that helps :))

A: So as not

A: If it were me, I’d let the kid be happy. I wouldn’t give him any sugar so his energy reserves would soon deplete.

If his excitement was starting to become annoying, maybe tell him to turn the volume down by a few notches? But say it with a smile. 🙂

A:

You have correctly identified a problem – saying either yes or no could potentially be confusing.

So you should say – that’s right. Then the person cannot be confused.

It doesn’t matter?
That’s right.

👍😑👍

A: Overall, the idea is that the English character is too practical and unemotional to admit to spirituality. It suggests there is something slightly embarrassing about admitting to a religious belief, because other people might see you as impractical, over-confident, gullible, childish, or something like that. The second sentence reinforces this: even the church doesn’t want to talk publicly about god as a genuine spiritual being, just as an example of kind and fair behaviour.

A: @aceatom

Hey Ana,
how's it going? I can't believe it's drawing closer to the end of December and we haven't spoken to ourselves for over a month. I just want to know how your doing.

If you recall, the last time we had a chat,I was in between jobs and guess what, I applied for the position of a tennis coach at the tennis club nearby.

Tennis is something I've had a passion for all my life. I trained with some great coaches so I'm pretty sure that with my experience I could provide my student with great knowledge.
As an ex-competitor, I understand what most students struggle with and its an important thing to be considered as a coach and also for the club that will be hiring don't you think?

I've got to go for now, you should attend one of my lessons if I'm hired. Hope to hear from you soon.

Happy Holidays.

A: Oh okay, sure!

This sentence features two different clauses:
'As we learn to navigate the online world'
and
'it is important to help children',
separated by a comma.

'To navigate' is a verb that means 'to explore a new or unfamiliar place'. This implies that the 'online world' is a place we don't know well yet.

The purpose of 'As' in this sentence is to show that 'helping children' must be done at the same time as 'navigating the online world'.

The end of this sentence, like I've said before, doesn't fit well with the English ear because we are left wondering, 'What do we need to help children do?'
