what does sugar daddies mean?
A "sugar daddy" is a rich older man who lavishes gifts on a young woman in return for her company or sexual favors. ("Sugar daddies" would be the plural form.)
Hi. Can I ask you a question ? What does "they say the shy and see the sunlight, can't accept your treat" mean ? Have already asked a few people and no one knows. Thanks.
Perhaps the reason why no one knows the meaning is that it makes no sense. It feels like an idiom from another language that has been seriously mistranslated.
what's the difference between 'it was I' and 'it was me'?
Technically, "It was I" is correct, and "It was me" isn't. However, nobody really cares anymore. In other words, they're both OK.Read this Tumblr post that explains why: http://tmblr.co/Z90tLyjcA5sS ✌️
Most of the time, you would use "was" with "I." ("Was" is the simple past tense of "be" for "I.")The easier thing is to talk about when you should use "were" with "I." That's the subjunctive mood. We use the subjunctive mood to express a wish or desire, or to talk about a hypothetical situation:- If I WERE you (but I'm not, so it's a hypothetical situation), I would read this book. - If I WERE G-DRAGON (but I'm not, so it's a hypothetical situation), I would move to Los Angeles permanently.Read this for more information: http://bit.ly/1pWL29H ✌️
What is the meaning of "Snap Out Of It"? Like Arctic Monkey's song tittle.
It means "to stop experiencing something unpleasant or stop behaving in a negative way," e.g., Nan's neighbor fell into a deep depression, and she couldn't SNAP OUT OF IT.
"when I WAS your man" and "if I WERE you". Which one is correct?
They're two totally different things. They can both be right. For example, - Weren't you happy when I WAS your man? - If I WERE you, I would sleep more and study less.
"Hang UP the phone" means to "end a phone conversation." (A long time ago, people literally hung up their phone receivers to end a conversation. See picture.)
- Instead of going to the beach, why don't you stay home and study? - Could you make me a burrito instead of a sandwich for lunch? - In a surprising move, the basketball team drafted a point guard instead of a center.
Should we avoid passive voice for formal writing purpose?
Generally speaking, yes. This is not necessarily because passive voice is "bad" or "wrong"; it's more due to the fact that active voice generally makes the writing more concise and clear. (Also, most teachers prefer active voice to passive voice.)
In America, there is no real difference. For example, Harvard University is a prestigious four-year school of higher education, and so is Pomona College. In America, we say that we go "to college" after high school, even if the school you're going to is Harvard University or the University of Chicago.In the U.K., universities are institutions that award degrees, while colleges are institutions that prepare students to earn degrees. In practical usage, British English speakers generally use "university" as the generic term for higher education, e.g., "I go to university."
the word " care less" is mean something that we're really care or somethign that we don't care?
"I could care less" is a variant of the correct expression "I COULDN'T care less," which means that you care 0% about something (you can't care less than 0%, right?). For example, "Henry's father doesn't like manga, so he COULDN'T CARE LESS that 'Naruto' was officially over."
It basically means "should," e.g., Since your grades aren't improving, you OUGHT TO study harder and pay more attention during class. Studying four hours every day OUGHT TO be enough.
- Nan's nephew had the privilege of getting drawing lessons from his idol Eiichiro Oda. - The wealthy students at the prestigious boarding school were granted many privileges.For more examples, check out the "usage examples" here: http://www.vocabulary.com/dictionary/privilege
In US they using School of Law or Law School, but in Europe they use Faculty of Law, faculty is use for teacher or member right ? which one is the correct one if we want to translate our resume ?
If you're applying to a school in America (or if you went to a school in America), you wouldn't use "faculty" to describe the school. In other words, as you correctly pointed out, in America, it's always (Something) Law School or (Something) School of Law. We use "faculty" only for the teaching staff (e.g., professors, teaching assistants).
