Englishの例文や意味・使い方に関するQ&A

A:

The sentence with "spoke" is grammatically incorrect, unless it was it was a situation where:

Person A: Someone asked me at my job interview how advanced my English skills were. How should I reply?

Person B: I would say that I spoke English pretty well now.
(it it were me in this situation, I would hypothetically say this)

Similar:
"What would you tell your parents if the cops came to this party"
"I would say that I left at 9am and wasn't there anymore by that time."

A: we tend to say this after someone is mentioning how hard something is, how difficult something is or if someone is being difficult. Usually you'll say it to someone mentioning the difficult task because you completely understand and relate.

I especially use it with coworkers when someone does my job for the day if I'm off and talks about how bad it was. Theyve put themselves in your shoes, so to speak. I'll say "Yuuuup, tell me about it." Luckily this isnt super common!

A: chandelier

A: Had better is a strong expression. We use it if we think there will be negative results if someone does not do what is desired.
Example: She’d better get here soon or she’ll miss the opening ceremony.

"Got to" is an idiom meaning "have to" or "need to."
Examples:
I've got to go wash my hands.
I’ve got to go.


‘Have to’ expresses something required
I have to finish studying.
I have to be at the meeting.

Must is used to express requirement
You must abide by the law.

Should is used to express a recommendation or goal.
You should try to get some sleep.

A: 천만에요!!

A: I'm worried about my friend. I hope she got home okay.

I'm worried if all goes well, I shall never see her again.

I'm worried that people will think badly of me.

I'm worried about my friend walking home alone.

I'm worried if all dogs go to heaven that there won't be room for me.

I'm worried that my bank balance is getting lower every day.

I'm concerned about my friend.

A: “I’m kind of hungry, but I’m not ready to have dinner” “I kind of speak *insert language*, but I am not fluent yet.” “I am kind of tired, but I don’t want to go to bed.”

A: To "stand a good chance of" means "It is very likely that". "It not being able to pay" means it doesn't have enough money to pay for something.
So the sentence means something like "It is likely that it cannot pay".

A: It was worth it.

A: I'm not sure what you're asking, but I'll try this example sentence:

My English skill is good, but it's not equal to a native speaker. I want to improve my English skill.

A: For me, I will write
I listened to music while studying English.
Or
I studied English while listening to music.

Now to address your question, it depends on which one you wanted to focus on. I would put the main focus first! Both state that you are doing two things at the same time, but which is more important to you?

A: the second sentence is more natural

A: There isn't a difference but the second one sounds more natural.

A: Saying ‘better in English’ doesn’t sound very natural, you would use ‘at’

A: Hi 🤣
I don't think "I'm good in English" is correct. "I'm good at English" is correct
So they don't mean the same because "I'm good in English" is incorrect.
Examples: I'm not good at football, I'm not good at cooking

A: That really depends on who you and the person you're rejecting are, but if you are uncomfortable being direct, you could tell the person that you're not ready for a relationship at the moment, but you really like that the person was thinking of you.

The main things I would recommend against is telling them that you're interested in someone else instead, or that you plain and simply don't like them.

You probably also don't want to tell them you'd like to be "just friends," because that's not a good start to any kind of friendship, only awkwardness and dissatisfaction.

A: I'm not really following what you are saying. So, obviously toddlers would not understand the tactics of a professional football team. So are you saying that the Japanese people are not ready to learn english? It's an odd statement to make.

A: **I like this expression.**

This is a fairly straightforward translation of the Korean sentence.

Here is a more natural way to say it in English (US):

**I really like this expression.**

This is a more common way to express your liking for something in English.

Here are some other ways to say it:

* **This expression is great.**
* **This expression is cool.**
* **This expression is awesome.**

I hope this helps!

A: worldwide
all over the world

A: I would say. “I don’t want to pay rent”.
Without “the”.

But it’s not clearly “wrong”. If I changed it to “I wouldn’t want to have to pay the rent.” I now like “the”. But could also drop “the” and still be correct.

Since it is not a real situation, there is no rent, and so “the” doesn’t sound natural to me.

A: Natural

A: @gprgpr12
I'd add an additional "non-" to the words

"Humans and non-humans"
"Cars and non-cars"

Or you can just use the word "others"

"Humans and others/other creatures"
"Cars and others"

A: ''Way of using'' is OK. But, ''the way to ~'' or ''how to ~'' might sound better in most cases (it just depends on the context).
「使い方」： ''the way to use,'' ''how to use,'' ''way of using''
「話し方」：''the way to speak,'' ''how to speak,'' ''way of speaking''
「食べ方」：''the way to eat,'' ''how to eat,'' ''way of eating
日本語の話し方＝The way to speak Japanese
「携帯電話の使い方を知っていますか」＝ Do you know how to use a mobile phone?
''Tanaka's way of speaking is elegant'' = 田中さんの話し方は奥ゆかしいです

A: It looks like it's a transliteration of the Greek word πάντοθεν ("pantothen") rather than the English word "pantothenic".
