What I'm trying to say is that, when I get inlove, it's fast but it last/lasts a lifetime?
In that case, "It happens instantly, but it lasts forever" would work better.

what's the diffrnt that and there? help me:)
"That" is primarily a pronoun, adjective, or adverb:
- That's my car over there. (pronoun)
- That woman is my mother. (adjective)
- I don't like her that much. (adverb)
"There" is primarily an adverb that describes location or a pronoun:
- I'm not going there today. (adverb)
- There is no hope for us. (pronoun)
- That's my car over there. (pronoun)
- That woman is my mother. (adjective)
- I don't like her that much. (adverb)

if a noun ends in s, how do i know when to use 's or just ' ? :) Thank you
If it's not the name of a person, i.e., if it's a common noun, just add an apostrophe at the end:
- The cats' tails
- The boys' toys
- The girls' books.
If it's the name of a person, either add 's or just ':
- Chris' book = Chris's book
- Thomas' toys = Thomas's toys
- James' hair = James's hair
- The cats' tails
- The boys' toys
- The girls' books.

it's fast but do last or it's fast but do lasts?
You're probably trying to say this: "It's fast but finishes last" (if it happens all the time) or "It's fast but finished last."

whats the different between While and When? im still confused when to use it. TY
This article explains the difference between "while" and "when": http://bbc.in/1so6usm
hi there! when to use in between? thank you.
Take a look at the usage examples here: http://bit.ly/1wt8Y6m
I am still confused with the use of in which, can you explain?
This is the book IN WHICH the hero's family dies at the very beginning.
I read the email IN WHICH Jo's boss threatens to fire everyone.
It's similar to "where," but it's used for things that are not places, e.g., books, messages, letters.

Is it plain stupid or plainly stupid?
When you're trying to emphasize that someone is stupid, you'd say, "He's just PLAIN stupid." (However, this is an informal expression.)
"The movie WAS amazing!" Why do we use WAS in this sentence? Could we use IS instead? I know 'was' is use in past tenses and 'is' in present tenses but it really gets so confusing sometimes. (
You can use either "was" or "is."
If you just watched the movie, you'd probably use "was": "How to Train Your Dragon 2" WAS amazing!
On the other hand, if you're talking about an old movie, you'd probably use "is": "Inception" IS amazing!
(Both are right.)

Can you give me a website on commas? I'm still confused about when to use it. Like when to use FANBOYS.

Neither is or neither are?
It depends:
Neither John nor Mike IS sick.
Neither the cakes nor the cupcakes ARE tasty.
Neither the cats nor the bear LIKES to take a bath.
The general rule is that if the noun that follows "nor" is singular, we use a singular verb (e.g., "is"); if the noun that follows "nor" is plural, we use a plural verb (e.g., "are").
If you use "neither of (x)," it's always singular: Neither of the boys IS here.

This is silly to ask but what exactly does "each girl received a score between 0 to 10" mean? Having a score of 0 and 10 is possible right? It is not just 1-9 correct?
1. It should be "... between 0 AND 10." ("Between" goes with "and," not "to.")
2. "... between 0 and 10, inclusive" would clearly mean 0–10.
"... between 0 and 10, exclusive" would clearly mean 1–9.
Otherwise, it's confusing.
3. "Each girl received a score FROM 0 TO 10" would mean 0–10.
2. "... between 0 and 10, inclusive" would clearly mean 0–10.

After the word if we use past participle tens right? E.g.: If I COULD go there bla bla bla. If I WERE there bla bla bla. Do we have to use past participle ? Can we use present tense ? E.g: she's gonna kill me if she (reads/read/read{pst tense}) this
It sounds as though you're actually asking about conditional verb forms and hypothetical statements: http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/conditional.htm
After 'First time' we should add 'to infinitive' or 'gerunds'? for example; First time to travel here. or First time traveling here. Thank you :))
It's my first time BEING here. It's Jo's first time EATING kimchi. It's her first time LISTENING to K-pop. And so forth.

Is this correct? "The more time I spend with her, the more I hate her." Is that a comma splice? How to fix it? <3
It's not a comma splice (two sentences joined together by a comma). That sentence is actually correct. :-)
how to use ain't
1. You shouldn't use "ain't" in formal writing.
2. In slang, "ain't" can be used in the following ways: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/ain't

what's the difference between for and to? i mean sometimes i see sentences like "to him, she was....." and "she was a hero for him." which one is right?

" my time will be wasted" i dont get it why there's will be (future) followed by wasted(past) . it's obviously opposite, can use explain it to me?
That's because "will be + past participle" is one way to form the PASSIVE VOICE. (For more on this topic, read this article: http://grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/passive.htm)
It's still the future tense, but it incorporates the past participle:
He will be KILLED if he runs into battle.
I will be PUNISHED if I don't do my homework.

Hey! Does the word sententious mean CONSISE like terse, short and to the point? or pompous and unncessarily long? confused
SENTENTIOUS = given to moralizing in a pompous or affected manner.
It definitely does NOT mean anything like "concise."

Klose had been playing in World Cup for 4 times or,, because we know this is the last WC of him, we write Klose had played ??
Now that both the World Cup tournament is over and Klose's international career is finished, we will be using the simple past tense ("Klose played in four World Cup tournaments") to describe him in the future.
Is it right to spell "can not/can't" as "cann't" ? I found it's wrong. My friend spell it that way. Her major is english, that's why I don't feel like to correct her.
Your friend is probably just having fun by spelling it that way. "Can't" is the official contraction of "cannot / can not."
Although or all though?
ALTHOUGH I spent $200 on new books yesterday, I haven't read a single page yet.
If that's the kind of sentence you had in mind, then "although" is the right word.
