A: This isn't used normally, but in video games and movies you may hear people say it. It means to get your weapons and get ready to fight!

A: Not quite. Both are past tense, but the implied meaning is different. "I saw that..." implies that you didn't see it happen. You became aware that you were already tied up. "I saw..." implies someone describing a past event where they saw their arms and legs being tied up.

"It was like a dream. I saw my arms and legs being tied up, but I couldn't move to fight back."

A: He walked swinging his arms. - he was swinging his arms on purpose.
He walked with his arms swinging. - his arms were swinging subconsciously.
Both are natural it just depends on the context.

A: The difference is that the act of crossing is done, and now his arms are in a state of being crossed. The act of swinging is continuing. “With his arms swung” makes it sound like he swung his arms once and now is done with it. It also makes it sound like his arms are in a state of “being swung,” but this doesn’t really make sense, because arms are the same before and after they have been swung.

Another example:

He lay down with his eyes closed. -> The act of closing is done, and now his eyes are in a state of being closed.

He lay down with his eyes closing. -> the act of closing isn’t done. He is still in the middle of closing his eyes.

A: Я бы сказал "A stroke almost never results in paralysis of both arms"

A: The second "I" is not necessary... Otherwise perfect!
--> " I sat down and used my arms as a pillow to rest a little on the desk."

I think most people would say something like...
--> "I put/laid my head down on the desk and took a little nap."

Hope this helps!
