can you tell me the difference between "i do believe" and "i believe" ? thankyou, have a nice day:)
They mean the same thing, but they are used differently:
Nan: I believe in unicorns.
Henry: You don't believe in unicorns, do you?
Nan: Yes, I do believe in unicorns.
"Do" is used for emphasis or to disprove a previous statement.
Here are a few more examples:
Nan: I do believe in Santa Claus! (Emphasis)
Peter: I don't think you believe in me. That makes me sad.
Henry: I do believe in you! (To disprove Peter's statement.)
Nan: I believe in unicorns.
Henry: You don't believe in unicorns, do you?
Nan: Yes, I do believe in unicorns.

how to use the word 'have had' or 'has had'? Can you teach me?
This question is basically about the difference between "have" and "has" and how to use the present perfect tense (has/have + past participle) Here's what I mean:
- I have had the time of my life. → ✔ ("Have" goes with I, you, we, they, and plural nouns.)
- We have had too much to eat. → ✔
- Nan has had the time of her life. → ✔ ("Has" goes with she, he, it, and singular nouns.)
- Peter has had his laptop for two years. → ✔
As far as the present perfect tense is concerned, you should read this excellent article (with plenty of examples): http://www.englishpage.com/verbpage/presentperfect.html
In fact, that site has great information on all the verb tenses, so you should check them all out.

Hi, is "chance" has a different spell in British and American? Because sometimes I heard it differently in some movies.
Nope. "Chance" is spelled the same way. (If you heard 👂 it differently, it's because American and British accents differ. This applies to many words, not just "chance.")

hi... i wanna ask bout how to use "who/whom/whose" and what the next verb after the word. thx..
For "who" vs. "whom," read this: http://tmblr.co/Z90tLy1YP54U8
For "whose," read this: http://tmblr.co/Z90tLy1glEP3S
Regarding what verb should follow, it completely depends:
- To whom are you talking?
- Whose cat is this?
- Who is the new girl in Red Velvet?
- Whose dogs are running on the street?
- Who are you?

jemah SAID or jemah SAY?
"Said" is the past tense: Jemah said that it was going to rain today, but it's actually sunny.
"Say" is the present tense for I, you, we, they, and plural nouns. Therefore, "Jemah say" would be wrong. It should be "Jemah says" (since Jemah is singular).

which one is right, the idea of his or the idea of him?
"His idea" is the best. "Idea of his" works, but it's not nearly as good as "his idea."
"Idea of him" doesn't mean "his idea." It means something closer to "the thought of him" or "the concept of him."
"Idea of him" doesn't mean "his idea." It means something closer to "the thought of him" or "the concept of him."

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 or more 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.

what the difference between in the same time, on the same time and at the same time?
"In the same time" = in the same amount of time:
- Nan washed her hair in the same time it took Henry to watch an episode of "Doctor Who."
- Chewie ran four laps in the same time it took Henry to run one.
"At the same time" = concurrently; simultaneously:
- When Nan and Henry grabbed the remote control at the same time, they decided to do rock-paper-scissors to decide who had the power to choose the next show to watch.
- Although Peter had left the restaurant an hour before Henry did, they arrived at the coffee shop at the same time.
"On the same time" is not idiomatic.

what's the difference between 'improve' and 'improvise'? thankyou 🌹🌹
"Improve" = to make better: Improve your forehand, or you will have no chance of beating him.
"Improvise" = to perform or create something spontaneously (on the spot) or without preparation: When people asked Nan to deliver a speech, she improvised a 30-minute lecture on the importance of sleep.

sorry i meant none lol. Is none singular or plural?
Oh. That changes things. ^^
"None" can be either singular or plural; it depends on what comes after "none":
- None of the apple ("apple" is singular) WAS eaten. = None was eaten.
- None of the boys ("boys" is plural) WERE sick. = None were sick.
- None of the debris ("debris" is singular) HAS been cleared away. = None has been cleared away.
- None of the phones ("phones" is plural) ARE working. = None are working.

aku udh nyoba aplikasi elevate. keren bgt aplikasinya tp susah2 gt yaa:( udh di ulangi beberapa kali teteup aja kalah di bagian reading yg level pertama huhu 💢💢
Sorry, but the only words we understood were "elevate," "reading," and "level." We're guessing that it's got something to do with Elevate (the app) ... and you're not happy about something.
"Try and...". Why?
We're not sure what you're asking, but "Try and ...." is considered informal. "Try to ...." is considered formal.
So, instead of "Try and make it there on time," use "Try to make it there on time."

What it is the meaning of slow boil? Ex. "He's such a slow boil"
"Slow boil" can literally mean "a boil that was achieved slowly," as in cooking soup or something. Many recipes call for a "slow boil," meaning that you cook with a weak flame or a low temperature.
As an idiomatic expression, "slow boil" can mean getting angry slowly.
In your example, that wouldn't make sense. "He's such a slow boil" sounds as though it means "It takes him a really long time to get excited" or "It takes him a really long time to get started on something."
