Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Paul"

A: この趣味を
次の生徒/人/息子/孫/後輩/友達に「伝える / 遺す」

A: There are two separate expressions in there that you might not be familiar with.

"Is to" means that someone is intending to or supposed to do something. "Was to" (in this instance) is the same, but in the past tense.

"John is to get married tomorrow."

"Call upon" is just a formal way to say visit someone.

"I called upon Mr. Smith at half past three."

By the way, both phrases sound very formal and a little old-fashioned. You would never hear them in casual conversation, at least where I live (the U.S.).

A: I think a better way to say this would be:
Paul felt that this conversation was getting out of hand.
(Paul has no control over the conversation, it could be escalating emotionally)
OR
Paul felt that this conversation was crossing the line.
(Paul felt the conversation was inappropriate or crossing social boundaries such as asking a stranger very personal questions)

A: That they haven't met each other in a while.

It could imply that they've had an argument or have been busy. and this would be the answer to a question like:
"Have you seen Paul and Carol together lately?"

A: It means the person thought Paul was serious in his speech.

A: "Thanks Paul for the great service."
"Thanks Paul, the service was great."
"The service was great, thanks Paul."

A: A

A: paul is a name

A: yes, these sentences can be interchangeable.

A: Paul got married in April. (結婚式が何日だったかは、文面からはわかりません。)

Paul got married on April 20th. (on April 20thは特定の日を指すのに使われます) it's necessary to mention the exact date in the sentence, otherwise it'll sound unnatural.

A: They are both remarkably similar. "Paul hasn’t eaten" focuses on the fact that "Paul eating" has not occurred. "Paul hasn’t been eating" focuses a bit more on the duration of "Paul not eating". However, either is perfectly understandable and neither is better, in my opinion.

A: I can't think of a context in which the second one would make sense, so stick with the first one.

"does sb. work" refers to a habitual, recurring event, so "today" is not consistent. If you were to ask "Does Paul work on Wednesdays?", that would be much more suitable. "Is Paul working on Wednesdays?" is completely incorrect, though.

A: The first two (using 'might' or 'may') have the same meaning in this context. If Paul gets a new car, then essentially there is a chance he sells his car to me. He could also decide not to sell it to me, so the chance of his selling the car is significantly less than 100%. These two say nothing about the chance of whether Paul gets a new car or not, only what happens if he does.

The third sentence with 'would' implies that Paul is not going to get a new car. The sentence mostly emphasises on the fact that it's almost impossible that Paul will get a new car. But say he does, then in that case, with very close to or even 100% chance, he will sell the old one to me. However, it is almost certain in this case that he is not getting a new car.

The last sentence with 'will' says that with high certainty, in the event that Paul sells his car, he will sell the old one to me. Like the first two sentences (with 'may' and 'might'), it says nothing about the chance of whether Paul will get a new car or not.

Hope this clears things up! :)

A: It looks correct and, yes, you do need the "s" on "costs". but you could say "how much it would cost"

paul: probably just me

A: Yes, you can say Paul Smith of ABC Corporation.

A: Check the question to view the answer

A: 1) I would say "all sweaty", without "all" it sounds strange

2) it would sound better "AFTER doing his exercise routine"

3) arriveD (because WAS DOING = el pasado)

A: It means that Jane is guessing, in this context.

A: Good morning my friend.

A: As Paul propagated the gospel, he was imprisoned, beaten and flogged as often as one eats a meal.

A: Paul asked me if I slept well
