when we use "if" after that will be past tense or present tense

- If I HAVE (present tense) homework, I WILL (present) stay home.
- If I OWNED (past tense) a Ferrari, I WOULD (past) let you drive it.
Here's a good explanation of how this works: http://bit.ly/1b97Ukz

what is the differences between 'lose' and 'loss'?

"Lose" is a verb; "loss" is a noun.
- Please don't lose my keys. (verb)
- The team suffered a humiliating loss in the championship game. (noun)

What is the meaning of "fyi" ?

"For your information." It is often used in forwarding email to friends or coworkers. It usually means that information is just being shared and that you don't need to reply. (Think of it as information sharing.)

what are the differences between "lost", "lose" and "loose"?

"Loose" is an adjective that means the opposite of "tight": His loose pants dragged along the ground.
"Loss" is a noun that means the opposite of "benefit," "victory," or "gain": My team suffered a loss last week.
"Lost" is the past tense of "lose" or an adjective that means the opposite of "found":
- Nan wept when she lost her favorite teddy bear. (Past tense of "lose.")
- They were lost in the fog, but now they're found! (Adjective)

"shoo-in" (is that correct?) "get one's panties in a bunch" "feathers on one's cap" (again, is it correct?) what are those called?

"Shoo-in" is correct. "Get one's panties in a bunch" and "feathers on one's cap" are called idioms.

How exactly to use the word "Familiar"? Can I familiar with anything? Eg. I'm familiar with this subject or I'm familiar with this town but how about person? Can we familiar with people (eg. I'm familiar with Nan). Though, I've heard that it has a bad meaning if you familiar with someone, isn't it?

They're all OK. If you're "familiar with" a person, it means that you know that person well.

What is the meaning of 'getting his panties in a bunch' ?

It means "getting unnecessarily upset over a trivial matter," e.g., Don't get your panties in a bunch because I mispronounced your favorite anime character's name.

Which one is error? Ken : "How long *will be* test *tomorrow*? Jo : "If we *started* by eight, we will *finish* before at ten.

There are quite a few errors:
Ken: How long is tomorrow's test going to be?
Jo: If we start by eight, we will finish before ten.

What is the differences or what are the differences? thanks :)

"Differences" is plural, so it should be "What ARE the differences ...?" ("What IS the DIFFERENCE ...?" would also be right.)

What is the meaning of 'Heathcliff' ? Thanks!

Heathcliff is a name. Most famously, it is the name of one of the main characters of Emily Bronte's "Wuthering Heights." There is also a comic strip/cartoon named "Heathcliff," whose title character is a mischievous cat.

Can you please explain what is past participle ?

In the simplest terms, the past participle is the form of the verb that should follow has/have/had, e.g., have EATEN, has STUDIED, had TAKEN (the capitalized words are past participles).

Which one is error? Jo : "Why *don't* you *invite* her?" Ken : "If I *knew* her address, I *will* invite her."

Change "will" to "would."

Xen : "Who DID this to my glasses?" Fei : "I HAVE no idea. I WERE broken when I came." Which one is incorrect? :) thank you!

The part that is incorrect is "I WERE"; it should be "They were" → They were already broken when I arrived.
