hello, is it true that who's do not exist ?

April 22, 2015

No! "Who's" = who is / who has (+ past participle):

---

- Who's there? (Who is there?)
- Who's been to Paris? (Who has been to Paris?)
- Who's hungry? (Who is hungry?)

why the answer b ? give me a reason please..

April 21, 2015

When you get the sleeves "shortened," it means that you made the sleeves shorter. Doing so would make that jacket fit perfectly.

hei how do i improve my english? im14 btw hehe

April 21, 2015

1. Read A LOT. Read often. Pay very close attention to how sentences are written. Write down and look up words you don't understand. Use those words in sentences.

---

2. Read translated manga and English comic books for dialogue, idioms, and vocabulary words. Learn how English-speakers talk to each other.

---

3. Write. (Here are some tips: http://bit.ly/1rOMbVx)

---

4. Use Google to answer questions you have. If that's too much work or too confusing, then follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/The_YUNiversity) or look at our A-Z archive with explanations to common questions: http://theyuniversityarchive.tumblr.com

---

5. Practice.

Good luck! (⌒ ͜ʖ⌒)-b

that moment when....after the word "when", do we have to use base word or past tense but the moment always happen. always happen or always happening anyway? *two quests*

April 21, 2015

1. If it always HAPPENS, then use the present tense form: I will never forget the moment when your eyes BLINK (present tense) just before you smile.

---

2. "Always happens" and "always happening" can both be right. It depends.

---

- It always happens this way.
- This kind of thing always happens to me.
- Bad things always happen to me when I'm tired.

---

- Art is always happening. (It's happening right now: somewhere in the world, art is happening.)
- Good things are always happening. (They are happening right now: somewhere in the world, good things are happening.)

what is "haggling about"? "..why so much haggling about who lives where and who produces what?"

April 21, 2015

To "haggle" means to negotiate or argue about something (often about the cost or price of something). Therefore, in your example, it means "Why so much arguing about who lives where and who produces what?"

What's the meaning of 'coralling'? Thanks!

April 21, 2015

Hmmm ... "coral" is a noun, so "coralling" makes no sense whatsoever. Was it "corralling" instead?

---

If so, "corralling" = collecting; gathering: Nan is corralling votes for her friend, who is running for president.

hi, i need your help. what is the meaning of "may the force will be with you" thanks in advance.

April 21, 2015

It basically means "I hope that the force is with you." It is the most famous quote from "Star Wars." (But if you aren't familiar with "Star Wars," you won't know what "the force" is.)

How to use vis a vis in a sentence? and also,, how to pronounce VINYL? thanks

April 21, 2015

"Vis-à-vis" has three primary meanings:

---

1. in relation to; with regard to: The teacher's attitude vis-a-vis her students changed once they all cheated on an important exam.

---

2. as compared to: Whether Nan's uncle gets hired for the job depends on his qualifications vis-a-vis the qualifications of the other applicants.

---

3. face-to-face: Nan and Henry always sit vis-a-vis during meals.

---

"Vinyl" is produced [VINE-l]. Go here http://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/vinyl and click on the sound icon next to "vinyl" so you could hear it for yourself. ^^

April 21, 2015

Redundant. "Satisfy" and "quench" mean the same thing.

These would be correct:

---

- Nothing can quench your thirst like water.
- Nothing can satisfy your thirst like water.

"Her name is Maria Carey. People (call/called) her as Mary"? if it is (called), why (called) cause people still use it tho

April 21, 2015

If people still call her "Mary" Carey, then it should be "People call her Mary."

---

If they stopped calling her "Mary" Carey, then it should be "People used to call her Mary."

Why did i find so much people said that "it's been a long time" not "it has been a long time" ? What's the difference of both of them? Thanks!

April 21, 2015

They are exactly the same thing. "It's" = It is OR It has (+ past participle).

---

- It's been cold. = It has been cold.
- It's destroyed everything. = It has destroyed everything.
- It's been an awesome day. = It has been an awesome day.

"I don't/didn't check it again before sent it to you." Which is correct? Is it right? Thankyou :)

April 21, 2015

"Sent" is past tense, so "I DIDN'T (past tense) check it again before I sent it to you" would be right. ^^

"You're way too beautiful" whats the meanung of " way" here? Thanks before :)

April 21, 2015

"Way" = much, so "You're way too beautiful" = "You're much too beautiful," e.g., My boyfriend told me that I'm way too beautiful for words to describe.

"she always annoys/annoyed me"? can you give me other examples too

April 21, 2015

If she is still in your life, "She always annoys me."

---

If she is gone (moved away, dead, etc.), "She always annoyed me."

---

- Nan always drinks strawberry lemonade for lunch.
- Henry always listens to music before he falls asleep.

---

- When he was a child, Peter always took a bath. (He's not a child anymore.)
- When she was younger, Nan always slept with the lights on. (She's not a child anymore.)
