"acting like u don't care isn't cool by any means, it's corny." is this correct? and what does this mean?

"Acting as if you don't care isn't cool by any means: it's corny" = Acting as if you don't care is dull, unoriginal, and tiresome. In other words, it's not cool to pretend that you don't care about anything.

how to use words "had had " ? I'm confuse . could you make it clear for me ? thank you 😊

There is nothing special about "had had." It's just the past perfect tense of "have."
- I had had a cold until yesterday.
- By the time Nan arrived at the restaurant, Henry and Peter had had more than a few drinks.
- After Peter had had a good night's sleep, he felt much better.
- If she hadn't had a good education, she wouldn't have gotten the job.
"Had had" works the same way as any other past perfect sentence, e.g., By the time her parents came home, she HAD FINISHED more than half of her homework assignments.

the last day in college/ last day in college?

Actually, "the last day of college" is the best choice. Similarly, "the last day of school," "the last day of summer," "the last day of class," "the last day of the semester," etc. are also correct.

can you give us some easy examples of difference due to and because of? thank you

1. Her success was due to hard work.
2. Nan's sickness was due to the cold weather.
3. Peter's victory was due to hours of practice.
A. She succeeded because of hard work.
B. Nan was sick because of the cold weather.
C. Peter won because of hours of practice.
For an explanation of why and how this works, read this: http://bit.ly/1F8K4ws ^^

is this correct, 'I wish my brother for his excellence in his studies?'

"I wish my brother success in his studies" is the best way to express this idea. ^^

How to differentiate btween "what did you eat" and "what did you ate"?

"What did you eat?" is right; "What did you ate?" is wrong. After DO, DON'T, DID, DIDN'T, DOES, and DOESN'T, use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb:
- Did Nan FINISH her assignment? (Not "finished")
- Does Peter KNOW where to do? (Not "knows")
- Why didn't Henry CALL me back? (Not "called")

Is there a difference bewteen" have something in mind" and "have something on mind"?

"Have something in mind" = do you have an idea?
Nan: Let's do something exciting this weekend!
Henry: Do you have something in mind?
"Have something on your mind" = are you worried about something?
Nan: You don't seem happy. Do you have something on your mind?
Henry: No. I'm just a little tired. I'll feel better after I take a nap.

Oh, and... cheers from Indonesia? It's a little late huh a lot of my fellow countrymen have been here. Well, remember that post saying "Apa khabar?" to which you reply with "Kita denda", supposedly "I am fine" according to Google translate? They actually mean "we fined"; try "Kami baik-baik saja" :)

Or maybe it's afternoon stroll? What does it mean? I'm sorry for my bad english.

"An afternoon stroll" is a relaxing walk you take in the afternoon: Nan and Henry took an afternoon stroll around the park with their dog Chewie. 🐶

what's the difference between him and his

"Him" is an object pronoun: I love him. I will give it to him. He brought a dog with him.
"His" is a possessive pronoun: Peter loves his phone. Henry ate his lunch.

What is the meaning of, "Not today, not today". Thanks. Have a good day!

Where is it from? We don't see any special meaning behind it. It most likely just means "(something) is not going to happen today." It is not a special idiom.

Theoatmeal.com has several comics about grammar. I'm a great fan! You should feature them sometimes

We have featured his art on our Tumblr page. Like you, we are fans of his work. 👍

what's the different between "either...or..." and "neither...nor..."

We use EITHER ... OR when we want to refer to a choice between two possibilities:
- Nan feels like eating EITHER tacos OR ramen for lunch.
- Henry will EITHER wash his car OR write 100 test questions today.
- Peter will be EITHER skiing OR snowboarding when we see him later this afternoon.
We use NEITHER ... NOR when we want to say that two things are NOT true:
- NEITHER Henry NOR Peter feels like going to the gym today.
- We like NEITHER to study NOR to write papers on such a beautiful day.
- Nan wants to watch NEITHER the movies on Netflix NOR the videos on YouTube.

if we are talking about God, do we have to add -th after verb? ex: knoweth. Do we have to refer Him as Thou?

No. "Thou," "thee," "thy," "thine," and adding -eth to verbs are all considered archaic (old, outdated). We don't use those words anymore in everyday English.

wht is the different between i am and i'm?

They're the same thing. "I'm" is the contraction of "I am," just like "he's" is the contraction of "he is."

by the end of the day or at the end of the day?

"By the end of the day" = before the day ends. "At the end of the day" = when the day ends.
- Nan will pay you by the end of the day. = Nan will pay you before the day ends, e.g., at 11 AM, 1 PM, 2 PM, 4 PM (at some time before you go home).
- Nan will pay you at the end of the day. = Nan will pay you at 5 PM (when work ends and everyone goes home).
"At the end of the day" is also an idiom that means "when everything has been taken into consideration": At the end of the day, only you can live your life, so do whatever makes you happy.
