How about bruno mars's song "when I was your man". Is it right?
That's OK because "When I was your man" refers to an event that happened in the past, not a hypothetical situation in the future.

which is right? 'Did you get home safe?' or 'Did you get home safely?'
It depends: "Get home safely" = to get home in a safe manner. For example, don't drive too fast, don't text while you drive, etc. "Get home safe" = to arrive home in a state of safety. For example, "I got home SAFE and SOUND" (I wasn't injured on my way home). Idiomatically, we do not say "I got home SAFELY and SOUNDLY."
When someone said "bla bla to die for", what is the meaning of 'to die for' itself??
"To die for" is an informal saying that means "extremely good or desirable," e.g., That ice cream is to die for! 🍨

on justin bieber's song he said that 'if i was your boyfriend, id never let you go' why there is 'was' after i? didnt it supposed to be 'if i were your boyfriend, id never let you go'?
You're right; he's wrong. 👍 (We even wrote an entire article about it: http://bit.ly/1pWL29H)
Hi, I found many times in some movies that "isn't it" pronounced as "innit?" is it common for some people? Or is it a slang word?
It is NOT common, especially among Americans. For instance, none of us admins ever pronounce "isn't it" it that way. However, it has been used in England (specifically London) for a long time. (Of course, "innit" is NOT the official/formal pronunciation of "isn't it.")

which one is correct; 'what does food means' or 'what does food mean'?
"What does food MEAN?" is right. After DO, DOES, DID, DON'T, DOESN'T, and DIDN'T, use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb:
- Does it RAIN in Los Angeles? (Not "rains")
- What did she EAT for lunch? (Not "eats" or "ate")
- Where does Peter STUDY? (Not "studies")
- Does it RAIN in Los Angeles? (Not "rains")
- What did she EAT for lunch? (Not "eats" or "ate")
- Where does Peter STUDY? (Not "studies")

Which one is correct? "Why do i have to smoke?" or "Why i do have to smoke?". Your respons it will be my pleasure, thank you
"Why DO I HAVE TO SMOKE?" is right. Similarly, "Why DOES IT HAVE TO BE SO COLD?" and "Why ARE YOU SO MEAN?" are also right. Basically, the part after "Why" should be a question by itself. If you look at the previous examples, all the CAPITALIZED WORDS form a question, e.g., DO I HAVE TO SMOKE?

How is it work or how does it work?
"How DOES it work?" is right. Here's how we would use "How is it":
- HOW IS IT? Is it delicious?
- HOW IS IT in New York today?
- HOW IS IT possible that you don't know the answer to the simple riddle?

What's the difference; 'I've got some works to do' and 'I got some work to do'? If u don't mind can u please explain when to use 'I've got...' n 'I got...' n give some examples thank u 😊
"I've got some WORK to do" is OK. But to be honest, "I HAVE some WORK to do" is even better. Many people consider "get" phrases (e.g., get away, get by, get well, get out) as informal (see picture). "I got some work to do" would be considered even more informal than "I've got some work to do."
As far as "I've got" is concerned, it seems to be preferred in British English, whereas in American English just "have" is preferred: I've got a cat. (UK) = I have a cat. (US)

hello, what is the different between english US and english UK? :)
I think you meant "American English (US English)" and "British English (UK English)." The most obvious difference is spelling (e.g., "gray" in US English and "grey" in UK English), but there are many others. It would take too long to explain them all here, so take a look at this article when you have time: http://bit.ly/1urw9i0

How to pronounce "beer" and "bear"?
"Beer" rhymes with "fear," "near," and "dear." "Bear" [bair] rhymes with "scare," "dare," "bare," and "fair."
The different between ( life / live ) answer please..
"Life" is a noun: My life is wonderful. Don't you love your life?
"Live" is a verb: We live in America. They live in Australia.
"Live" can also be an adjective: We have a live recording of "Welcome to the Black Parade" by My Chemical Romance.

What is the meaning of distubingly calm?
It means that something, someone, or some place is much calmer than it should be. It is so calm, in fact, that it's disturbing. For example, if your younger brother is usually wild, noisy, and out of control but is extremely calm right now, you might start to worry about him. He is being "disturbingly calm."
is it 'i care about you' or 'i care for you'? thanks
They mean the same thing, but "I care about you" is used more commonly. You could say either one to someone to whom you're not yet ready to say "I love you."
How to pronounce "can" and "can't" in American? Excuse my english
"Can" rhymes with "man," "ran," "fan," and "van." "Can't" rhymes with "pant," "rant," "slant," and "ant."
Which one is correct, "Looking forward to your next stories" or "Looking forward for your next stories"? Thank you.
"I am looking forward TO reading your next story" would be right.

How do we use 'I could not care less' and 'I could not care more' in daily conversation? What is the differences between them?
We say "I couldn't care less" for things that we really don't care about. It is a very common idiomatic expression.
Nan: There's going to be a parade tomorrow.
Henry: I couldn't care less. I'd rather visit the dentist.
No one says "I couldn't care more." It's not an expression that people use. (We do say "I couldn't agree with you more"; we say that when we agree 100% with what someone has said.)

Which one is correct, "I never talk to him before" or "I've never talked to him before"? Can you tell me what verb is used after the word Never? Thanks!
"I never talked to him before" is wrong. "I've never talk to him before" is right. The verb tense we use after "never" depends on what you're trying to say:
- I've never visited Thailand.
- We have never cheated on an exam.
- Until yesterday, she had never heard of "One Piece."
- He never would have guessed that Sogeking and Usopp were the same person.
- I never go to the mall. (present tense)
- You should never eat raw chicken. (present tense)
- I've never visited Thailand.
- We have never cheated on an exam.

- He never would have guessed that Sogeking and Usopp were the same person.
