Hello may i ask u? How pronounce 'want' and 'wont'? Thankyou
"Want" = [wawnt]; "wont" = [wawnt]. (They're pronounced the same.) However, "won't" = [woent].

action speak after words or action speaks after words ?
"Action (singular) speaks (singular) after words" would be right. (You didn't ask this, but "Actions speak louder than words" is a common idiom.)
What is meant by "...can't get over this...." ? Thank you in advance xx
It means "can't forget this" or "can't overcome this." For example, "I can't get over this humiliating defeat" = "I can't forget about or overcome this humiliating defeat." In other words, you're constantly thinking about it, crying over it, depressed about it, etc.

secure your hair or tie up or hair?
"Secure your hair" sounds like something you'd do with bobby pins or what you'd do to a wig. "Tie up your hair" would be making braids, a ponytail, etc.

which one is correct "the paragraph needs revising or "the paragraph needs to be revised"?
"The paragraph needs to be revised" is correct. However, if you're telling it to someone, "The paragraph needs revising" is also OK. (To avoid this situation, you could also just say "Revise this paragraph.")

in what situation can we use 'he do,' instead of 'he does'
Only one that comes to mind immediately: the subjunctive mood. For example, "Jim's mom demanded that he do the laundry while she is at work." "The teacher required that he do his own research."
Here is an explanation of the subjunctive mood: http://bit.ly/1pWL29H (Scroll down.)

What does it mean by prima facie ?
It's Latin for "first appearance," and it means "based on the first impression; accepted as correct until proved otherwise." It's used often in legal contexts, and this page gives a great explanation of it: http://bit.ly/1Xfd5SJ

Once our teacher gave us the task to read the book for the next lesson. Is it right?
"Our teacher told us to read ahead to the next lesson in the textbook" is the simplest way to say that.

"hal's new sports car costs much more than his friend joel." which word that needs to be fixed?
It should be "Hal's new sports car costs much more than that of his friend Joel" or "Hal's new sports car costs much more than Joel's car does." The original sentence is wrong because it's saying that the car costs more than a person. (Instead, we should compare the cost of Hal's car to the cost of Joel's car.)

How to use the words neither and either? Thanks.
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 not the one or the other of two people/things is 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.
This is how EITHER and NEITHER work in negative sentences:
- You don't like me? Well, I don't like you EITHER! And NEITHER does my brother!
- You don't feel like studying? NEITHER do I!
- She doesn't want to go to the beach today? I don't feel like it EITHER.
- 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.

What's the difference between "i dont need no beat" and "i dont need beat" ?

which one is correct: they are the new kids in the block OR they are the new kids on the block?
"They are the new kids ON the block."
so are elder sister and older sister the same ? elderly and olderly?
"Elder sister" = "older sister" but almost everyone uses "older sister." "Elderly" ≠ "olderly." (Only "elderly" is a valid word.)
consult...... for question about sars A. the two index b. index two and why ? please help me . i don't know it
It can't be (A) because it should be "the two indexes" (or "indices"), so it must be (B). "Index two" doesn't sound good, but (A) is definitely wrong.
'Will she do the same' or 'Will she does the same' which one is correct? Why?
"Will she DO the same." After WILL and WILL NOT (or "won't"), use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb: She will BAKE me some cookies today. She won't HELP me with my homework.
"searh for someone who can change you" or "search for someone who can changes you" ?
"... who can CHANGE you." After CAN and CAN'T, use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb: I can SMELL your socks. She can FLY a plane.
