Dear teachers,
I have two questions today. Please let me know if there are mistakes.
1. She is *parading* around her very expensive shirt.
Am I using it right?
2. What kind of *leave* is not *personal leave* but *working for the school's honor* when joining a competition for your school?
Thanks a lot! |

I think you'd need to say, "She is parading around in her very expensive shirt." (Presuming she's wearing it while she walks around.) |

2. Maybe it would be official school business leave. _________________ You live a new life for every new language you speak. -Czech proverb |

Or maybe it isn't really any kind of leave. It could just be an excused absence. |
