Câu hỏi về câu ví dụ, định nghĩa và cách sử dụng của "J"

A: Is it possible that the A is a badly written H, and it's supposed to be J. Hi (Japanese High) school? It almost looks like the H in "white" instead of the other "A"s in the sentence.

A: Could mean Dr J is "stylin' and profilin'" is his outfit.

A: It can mean a few different things, where did you hear it or see it?

A: it’s an old British expression

A: With the letter J, your back teeth touch and your tongue touches the top of your mouth.
With the letter Z, your front teeth touch and your tongue is in the front of your mouth.

A: Understood. Ok. When you say "J" in "Justice", you are talking about the letter of the alphabet, "J". For example, "Y" in "New York" is always a capital letter". Or, "his "W" in "wizard" looks a little different from the way he usually writes". When you say "J" as in "Justice", it does not make much sense. Unless, for example, somebody told you their name is "Jill", but you wrote it as "Gill", so she told you: "No, you need to write it with J as in Justice". So, "as is" is usually used for comparison or explanation, to give an example. For example, "On" as in "they get on well", does not mean that one is on top of the other as in "the book is ON the table". Or, "Bow" as in "on the girl's head", or as in "weapon"?

A: Honestly, some more context about what you mean in French is necessary, because we have some different options to translate this with different meanings:

1. I was staying at the hotel where I was working = you were working and living at the hotel (the hotel is your employer)

2. I was staying at the hotel where I worked = I did some work (not for the hotel, but for someone else) at the hotel, which is also where I was staying

3. I stayed at the hotel where I was working = I was employed by the hotel and I stayed there only ONCE. This could also be interpreted the same as 1. It’s a bit ambiguous

Note: I stayed at the hotel where I worked is not a good translation for your example, this would most likely be understood as “j’ai resté a l’hotel ou je travaillais”, although it is ambiguous and I would probably ask for clarification if you said this.

Now another option to translate “j’etais logee” is “I was put up in the hotel where I was working”. To “put somebody up” means “to pay for the accomodation of”. If you said this, it means that you were employed by the hotel and they also paid for you to live there.

If you mean to say that your employer (who is not the hotel) decided to pay for your stay, and you decided to work at the hotel (Two separate things), then the best translation is “I was put up at a hotel and decided to do some work there”

A: I’m hungry

A: I believe it could be ‘He was an excellent player in high school, but he became a J-Leger and received professional baptism’ this is what a friend told me

A: "We can go for a picnic" sounds so natural in this conversation. I'm trying to figure out why.

I think because he says "We can go" instead of "Let's go." That's a short way to say "We can go out for" which is a very natural phrase.

Either "for" or "on" works fine here, but in this context, "We can go on a picnic" might make me laugh. It's hard to explain why, but it would sound like he's jumping to a conclusion instead of just suggesting a possibility. It's unexpected. Almost like, "We can go to the circus!" Like he's suggesting a really unusual thing to do without explaining why he thought of it.

"We can go for a picnic" sounds like he's suggesting just one possible thing they could do, but they could do something else instead. It's less enthusiastic.

By the way, most people in the US use clothes dryers instead of clotheslines, so they wouldn't say, "So I'll be hanging out laundry." They would be more likely to say, "So I'll be folding laundry." However, first generation Chinese-Americans usually do use clotheslines. So it depends on who is speaking.

A: J is expecting her second child. Thank God for answering her prayer but she has many worries due to taking care of D and R and her work and so on. Truly, we don't know God's plan:) Pray that she will be able to cope with her work and care of D and R.

A: Both phrases are a little slang.

"Pretty much" means "basically, roughly, generally, overall". In this example, you could use any of those words for the same meaning.

"I owe you one" is slang. It means "I owe you a favor" or "I am in your debt." In this example, A is grateful for J's help. So it is a way of saying thank you.

A: this song is positive energy for our lives, anytime we are feeling lost, we can listen to a song that inspires us to move forward, when we're feeling happy, we're listening to a song, we'll have more fun.
K: in fact, I just like songs, but you're good at singing songs.
J: You're good at it. Don't be modest.

A: Correction fluid. I think you call it Liquid Paper in Vietnam.
