Dear teachers,

I don't know if I can ask you such a favour, but would you please give me:

1/ ten (or more) stces containing words or expressions in English that a learner of English would not necessarily know but that he might understand from the context and so find synonyms for them.

All this because I'd like to know if I would be able to understand such words or expressions and then translate them into my language.

2/ other ten (or ten other?) stces (or more) with adjective phrases to see if the position of the adjective would change if I translate these stces into French.

Exemple : He’s a strange fellow. = C'est un individu bizarre.

Gratefully yours, (I really don't know if I can say this)
H�la

Hello Bigdave,

By "stces" I mean "sentences".
Thanks,
