So meet me meet me at the place we fell in love before the arguments the pettiness before trust was lost where time used to past too fast while with you

no I regret asking you to the grocery store because the music isn't loud enough to drown our silence There's no hope in our future not in the one we built This house is falling apart the walls are losing color the floor is coming undone windows are broken and the numbers defining it's place have gone missing the memories that were once filled with laughter now replaced by yelling

So meet me in the place we met for one last goodbye a cheer to love like last but for the information we know now about love

specifically when talking about quantity, for example "this happened a couple months ago".

does it always mean "a pair" or can it also mean "a few", i.e. not a specific number, and not necessarily two?

• The economy is improving, but we are not out of the woods yet.

Which sentence sounds more correct? Or is there a more natural way to say it?

I feel stuck at the A2 level. I'm good at understanding Reddit comments and following along with movies, but when I try to read novels, there’s a lot I don’t understand. Could you recommend a novel that might be easier for me to follow and give some tips to help me reach the B1 level in English?"

I’m a linguistics student studying English as my second language. One of the things I have to understand for my vocabulary class is the difference between the words “furtive” and “surreptitious”, but I’m having trouble. If I were doing my own research for personal use I would conclude that the words were perfect synonyms, but there must be a difference. I cannot ask my professor for clarifications because she is very strict and does not appreciate being asked about something she has already explained. I did not understand it from the explanation, but it had something to do with the context of the situation. I had thought that “furtive” was more disapproving than “surreptitious”, but my use of these words based on this assumption ended up being completely backwards. Is it the other way around? I would appreciate any kind of help.

Hello, folks! Hope you all doing well in these chilly autumn days.Are you excited about coming holidays? Please respond kindly, since I am already beatten up with my mind. Long story short! i dont know what to do?! I just hope someone can give me a little bit guidence. I am almost 40. My journey started about 6 year ago. I did a lot of tedious work to be at the level what i am now with my English. I am trying to evaluate my diploma and hope to get some credits. After that i will see what step should i take in my life journey. Will i go and pursue Master Degree or work. It all depends on my credits. For now i am just studying, reading books. Learning my vocabulary. I came here to get some answers. I tried to take GED classes but didn't enjoy it. Teacher would gave us advanced vocabulary. And we wouldn't even practice them.Excuse me, if the student has huge gap how could you possible just throw those heavy words that even Americans don't know? For instance: jeremiad ?! Don't bother looking it up,it means to complain! Isn't it rediculous? Now i realize that it is up to us( students) who cares how we can comprehend all that in such compressed period of time? I felt bad for those whose English wasn't adequate. Why do they have to know "jeremiad " if they even dont know what does it mean: gripe, grumble...you name it! I had such a battle in my head. Trust me seeing all those who try to improve and they don't have even proper guidence. So i embark my own journey by studying essential vocabulary books. I am finally done with # 6. I am giving myself 3 years to prepare and study. So i think the best way is to go by school grade by grade vocabulary books. They explain words, definitions, you can read passages with those words , try to write down what you read. Now i also try to read 1 book per week. That's all i do. My question is: Do you know what vocabulary book teachers use from grade 6-12? And what do you suggest me to improve? I try to learn words, come up with my own sentences and get thrilled if i enconter them in my reading sessions. Sometimes, i get frustrated reviewining books and realizing that i forgot them. Everything seems blank...As you see it is very painful and tedious proccess, but i enjoy it.Please dont label me as a masochist! I just dont know how can I improve especially my writting. Now, let's skip those comments such as watching tv, talking. I do all that. Even read my Bible every day. I am just haunted by my hollow head, that's all. And thanks for reading my post!

Usually, when I start a conversation with a stranger or an acquaintance, they speak in English or Hinglish (a mix of Hindi and English). However, as soon as I reply solely in English, they switch entirely back to Hindi. Why does this happen?

How do you say it when some guys who are on a motorcycle looks like thieves? Is there a colloquial way to say it? I'm referring to guys like the ones in the photo.

Like for instance, a dialog like this: "We where like, in a creepy neighboorhood, and the police drove by us and stopped some guys who were on a motorbike. Those guys looks ....??"

Hello! I'm a student in central europe and i want to practice english talking to other peaple. I'm signed up for an english competetion in my area, and i feel really akward about myself when i have to talk with unknown peaple.

My vocab is rich, but i overstress it. So anyone would mind getting into a discord call maybe and just asking questions in different topics? For example, food, cooking, sports, or anything casual, like if it was a speaking test.

Ages between 18-24 fine, i don't want to talk to anyone immature, but i don't want to talk to literal pedophiles you know. ten to twenty minutes is fine, i don't need much more than that.

Hi every one, I want to translate a presentation from Spanish to English, but I am not sure about it. In Spanish the presentation's title is ENTRE CONSTANTES, and when I ask the creator about it, he would tell me: I WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ONE CONSTANT AND ANOTHER ONE... So, is it right to write BETWEEN CONSTANTS in the title?

The tropical vortex's coming up the coast is going to give us a little light cloud cover and with some occasional showers which of course will be good news for horticulturalists and vegetable patches. Uh, I'm sorry, horse tourists and girdlers. No, no, horticulturalists and gardeners. Oh boy, did that get away from me?

Thanks! I will upvote everyone's reply :)
