It sounds good to me unless your software is as bad as your English.

If that's the case, I think I'll pass.

It would be helpful to keep in mind that the TV show had little to do with the Korean War.

Is this AmE? "I have posted too many questions in one day. It's my bad." If so, what is the British equivalent? Thank you. The expression you have quoted, my friend, is a shortened form of the question: "Am I bad?" As a tip between gentleman, please don't ever use this expression, not unless you wa...

"Thank you very much, Dodger. US?"

I am an American, living and teaching in Switzerland.

'Ask after' seems to be BrE. If so, what is
the American equivalent.
Thank you.

I saw my friend John yesterday and I asked him about his flatmate Tom.

Is this understanding correct? 1. know something backwards - BrE 2. know something backwards and forwards - AmE Do we need '-s' (backwardS) in both cases? Does it mean 'know everything'? Thank you.

Thank you, Itasan for accepting my sincere apology.

Are you a teacher of the English language; Business English, or someone who is merely curious about it? A teacher would only rarely...

It's only logical,

if you have neither knowledge of business nor Business English, then as a teacher, please stay out of the classrooom.

People such as yourself are one of the main reasons why people such as myself make so much money teaching Business English in the first place!

Excuse me, your English teacher asked you what English for Specific Purposes means?

Maybe that's what happens when you pay $5 for a "CELTA" teacher to give you an English lesson.

Or maybe your "teacher" got her CELTA degree via Adobe Photoshop!

Good luck in Korea, janecorf.

Is there a question in the immediate future or are you just merely boasting about your degree program? Your post has successfully bored me to tears in Winterthur!
