Whats the difference between 'got' and 'has/have'? I got two more papers left or i have two more papers left?

The biggest difference is that "got" is past tense; both "has" and "have" are present tense.
Moreover, "I got two more papers left" is considered informal. In fact, many uses of "get" / "got" are considered informal: http://tmblr.co/Z90tLyQRZv_U
"I have two more papers left" or "I still have two more papers to write" (or something similar) would be better.

"I have no idea what and where are your eyes looking at?" Is this correct?

It's weird to have both "at what" and "where" in the same sentence, so it's better to delete one or the other:
- I have no idea what you're looking at.
- I have no idea where your eyes are looking.

'the man would be one bad day away from grey gardens' can you explain this sentence to me? Thanks!

Is it from a book? Is "Grey Gardens" the name of something, e.g., a mental institution, a prison, a hospital?
Whatever Grey Gardens is, the sentence is basically saying that the man is really close to ending up there; all it would take is one bad day (bad luck, one mistake, bad health, etc.).

What the difference between legs, foot and feet?

"Foot" = one foot. "Feet" = more than one foot.
Feet are attached to legs. (Legs are like long "sticks"; they are made up of the femur, fibula, and tibia.)

I assume that the one who asked the previous question is my fellow Indonesian. Well "kamu bahkan tidak melakukannya" means you don't even do that. Have a good day! :)

Thanks! 👍

give me some example for have been and has been? can't and cannot? don't and do not?. thanks before:)

- Nan's nephews have been sick since Sunday. ("Have been" = plural)
- Nan has been sending them funny emails to cheer them up. ("Has been" = singular)
Can't = cannot:
- Nan can't ride a bicycle.
- Nan cannot ride a bicycle.
Don't = do not:
- Nan and Henry don't like to wash their cars.
- Nan and Henry do not like to wash their cars.

Is the comma before the word "too" necessary ?

Many grammarians and style guides differ on this. The short answer is no. If it's used as "also," then the comma is considered optional:
- I like apples too! = I like apples, too!

I was asking a personal question 😌😌 I meant to ask if ur major is English literature ^_^ (for bachelor's, not masters :p)

Yes! At UC Berkeley! 👍

i can barely grasp the meaning of "take smth for granted", can you explain me in the simplest way?

Meaning 1 is "to not appreciate enough" or "to not be grateful for someone or something":
- If you keep taking me for granted, I'll leave you for someone who appreciates me.
- Many Americans take freedom for granted; they don't realize that millions of people around the world can only dream of the rights and privileges they enjoy.
Meaning 2 is "to assume to be true without checking":
- The teacher was shocked when the entire class failed the easy exam. She had taken for granted that everyone would have studied.
- I took it for granted that Henry would pay for lunch, so I left my wallet in the car.
We hope this helps. (⌒ ͜ʖ⌒)-b

Hi! Is it possible for me to ask your help? I've prepared an essay to apply a study loan and I need someone to check on my grammar. It's ok if you cant, no worries.

We wish we could help, but we are far too busy to look over people's essays. Sorry.
Try to find editors/proofreaders on Google. Some of them probably won't charge a lot of money, especially if it's a short essay.
Good luck!

Never get old or never gets old?

For I, you, we, they, and plural nouns, use "never get old," e.g., Those jokes never get old.
For it, she, he, and singular nouns, use "never gets old," e.g., That joke never gets old.

'Beat to the punch' what's the meaning of this?

That means someone did or said something before you could do it or say it, e.g., Henry wanted to tweet about the new BIGBANG music videos, but Nan *beat him to the punch*.

Does 'i wonder what it feels like to be having a friend like him' correct?

"I wonder what it feels like to HAVE a friend like him" is right. ✌

what does 'though' mean? how to use it?

"Though" basically means "however," but it's not used in the same way. Here are some examples:
- THOUGH the weather has been nice lately, we know that it won't last for long.
- THOUGH I had no idea how to solve the problem, I guessed and chose the right answer.
- It's a really famous novel; I haven't read it, THOUGH.
