what's the meaning of lowkey? and how to use that word?
"Low-key" basically means "not flashy" or "not showy." For example, "She wore a low-key outfit to her friend's wedding."
People often use it nowadays informally as a synonym for "secret." For example, "Keep it low-key, but my friend cheated on the exam." 🙊
In formal writing, don't use "low-key" as a replacement for "secret." Use "discreet" or some other synonym instead.

"The more I get what I want, the more unappreciative I become" is the grammar correct?
Yes, it is. 👌
hello min! im still confused, wether we say "he don't smoke" or "he doesn't smoke" to declare a man who's a passive smoker. thanks !
We say "He doesn't smoke." (We use "does" and "doesn't" with he, she, it, and singular nouns in the present tense.)
- She doesn't like fast food. 🙅🍔
- He doesn't drink alcohol. 🚫🍸
- It doesn't snow in Los Angeles.
In formal English, one of the only times that "he don't smoke" can be right is in the subjunctive mood, within a sentence like this: "It is crucial that he don't smoke during the experiment." For more information on the subjunctive mood, read this: http://bit.ly/2c2q2Tr

What's the difference between decode and transcode? 😔
To "decode" something is to convert a coded message into a simpler, more easily understandable language. For example, someone who decoded leet speak would explain that h4x0r = "hacker" and s|<1llz = "skillz."
To "transcode" is to convert something from one form of coded representation to another. For example, if you convert an MP3 file to a WAV file, you are transcoding it.
If you are asking how those words differ in a technical (e.g., video/audio editing) context, read this: http://bit.ly/2cwNXG1

if ain't means no (isn't/am not/aren't) then why people say like "ain't got no money"?
That's because "ain't" is an informal word, and the double-negative rule does not apply to it.
- I ain't no fool. = I ain't a fool. = I am not a fool.
- I ain't got no money. = I ain't got any money. = I don't have money.
- I ain't no fool. = I ain't a fool. = I am not a fool.
- I ain't got no money. = I ain't got any money. = I don't have money.
Please heeeeelp 😭 What kind of homonyms are these words: bark, bat, bill, box, fair?
That's a really broad question. A homonym is basically a word that has the same spelling and pronunciation as another word but has a different meaning.
For example, "bark" 🐶💬 can mean the noise that a dog makes or it can refer to the outside covering of a tree. 🌲
A "bat" can be a flying mammal (e.g., a vampire bat) or a club used for hitting a ball (e.g., a baseball bat).
Each of your examples has multiple meanings that make it a homonym. If you want to get super technical, your examples would also qualify as HOMOGRAPHS: words that are spelled (but not necessarily pronounced) the same but have different meanings.

Hi! Don't have an idea what CVC rule is. But our assignment goes this way. Which word is an EXCEPTION to the CVC rule? a. cup b. land c. bat d. fork
The CVC pattern is consonant-vowel-consonant. It refers to the last three letters in a word:
- cup → ✔
- land → ❌ ("and" is a VCC pattern)
- bat → ✔
- fork → ❌ ("ork" is a VCC pattern)
The rule is that if you add -ing, -er, -est, or -ed to a word that ends in a CVC pattern, you DOUBLE the LAST LETTER.
- cuP → cuPPed → ✔
- land → landed
- baT → baTTed → ✔
- fork → forked
Two of your examples don't follow a CVC pattern ("land," "fork"). Two of them follow the CVC pattern and are not exceptions to the rule.
Either we are misunderstanding your assignment or your assignment is inaccurate.

hi could you please give me an explanation about 'before and after'?
Hmm ... are you asking about the phrase "before and after"? If so, it's used to show how someone or something looked before x and after x. For example, you can easily find photos online of how celebrities looked before and after plastic surgery or before and after dieting. (See picture.)

"Delusional."

- Didn't he go (not "went") to work today?
- Did I scare (not "scared") you?
- Did she finish (not "finished") her essay?

when we should add ed or ing could you explain for me? thank you!
That is a really broad question.
For example, the answer can be that -ed is the past tense form and -ing is the progressive form:
- He laughed (past tense) at my joke. (He laughed at some moment in the past, but not right now.)
- He is laughing (present progressive) at my joke. (He is laughing right now.)
Also, -ed and -ing can form adjectives. For more information on that, read this: http://bit.ly/1nodLRI
