"no matter how much your age is" is it right?
Although it is grammatically OK, it sounds awkward. Native speakers would say "No matter how old (or young) you are."
I have or I has?
"I has" is ALWAYS wrong. 🙅 "I have" is right in the present tense. (In the past tense, it would be "I had.")

when i should use 'nope' & 'no'? thank's for the answer.
If you're answering someone's question, "nope" and "no" mean the same thing. ("Nope," however, is informal, so you should use it only with people you know well, e.g., friends, family, or on the Internet.)
Peter: Are you hungry?
Henry: Nope. I'm good.
Waiter: Would you like some water?
Henry: No, thank you.
Peter: Are you hungry?
Henry: Nope. I'm good.
Waiter: Would you like some water?
Henry: No, thank you.
When do we use "lose" and "loose"? Thank u
"Lose" is a verb; it's the opposite of "win" or "find," e.g., "I always lose my wallet when I go on vacation." "I lose weight easily, but I always gain it right back."
"Loose" is an adjective; it's the opposite of "tight," e.g., "Your pants are too loose; they're about to fall off." "My tooth is loose; I should probably take it out."
"Loose" is an adjective; it's the opposite of "tight," e.g., "Your pants are too loose; they're about to fall off." "My tooth is loose; I should probably take it out."
What is the difference between "amazed" and "astonished"? And can we say "astonished of"?
"Amazed" and "astonished" both means "shocked" or "surprised." However, "amazed" has a positive meaning and "astonished" has a more negative meaning and is similar to "stunned":
- I was amazed at how many cookies we sold.
- She was amazed by the brilliant singing and choreography.
- The teacher was astonished by the low test scores, even from her best students.
- Henry was astonished to discover an empty refrigerator when he came home.
"Astonished" is often followed by "by" + a noun, "to" + verb, but "astonished of" is considered nonstandard.

"other people usually have eat...." is it correct?
The past participle of "eat" is "eaten," so after has, have, and had, we use "eaten," e.g., "Other people have already eaten breakfast." In your example, it should be "Other people usually eat ..." (For example, "Other people usually eat breakfast before noon.")

hi, i just heard it from a movie. what does "freshman shop" means? thanks!
A "freshman" is a first-year student at university or high school. Therefore, a "freshman shop" is probably a store that has things that a freshman wants/needs or a store that is operated by freshmen. (But that doesn't make much sense.) Most likely, "Freshman Shop" is just a name of a retail company, e.g., Urban Outfitters, Gap, Abercombie & Fitch.

what are the differences between "thanks in advance" and "thanks anyway"?
"Thanks in advance" is something you say to someone BEFORE they do what you asked for. This is often used when you think you won't be able to thank that person afterward. (Some people use "Thanks in advance" as a trick/scheme to get someone to do what you want.)
"Thanks anyway" is something you say when you ask someone for help and they can't do it (even though they tried).
Peter: Do you know where the nearest gas station is?
Stranger: No, I don't. Sorry.
Peter: That's OK. Thanks anyway.

please tell me more about low-key & high-key, thankyou♡
"Low-key" basically means "not flashy" or "not showy": She wore a low-key outfit to the ceremony.
People often use it nowadays informally as a synonym for "secret": Keep it low-key, but my friend cheated on the exam. In formal writing, don't use "low-key" in that sense. Use "discreet" or some other synonym instead.
"High-key" is a term in photography that means "having a predominance of light or bright tones." In slang, it's the opposite of "low-key": when something needs to be said out loud so everyone can hear.

Hey, if i wrote "I'm not as good as you say, but I'm also not as bad as what crossed your heart" true or false? is the grammar correct? Thank you for your reply :)
It would be correct if you changed "heart" to "mind." ("Cross [one's] heart" is an expression that means "to promise.")
