Dear Teachers,
1. If you do decide to meet with this girl at some point.
- I think �with� is redundant here, right?
2. She asked me if I had a webcam, I said yes, and then we started trading pictures.
- What does �trade pictures� mean here?
3. He lives forever away and second. I�ve lied so much just to protect myself.
- What does � he lives forever away and second� mean?
4. Writing us is playing it smart, keep playing it smart, okay?
- �writing us is playing it smart� means �you are smart to write to us�, right?
Thanks a lot to Teachers,
Stevenukd |

1.) It is redundant, but it is common usage in America.
2.) She sends you a picture - you send her a picture - she sends you a picture you send her one... until you either get married or bored.
3.) He lives forever away means, (First) he lives a long way away, second I've lied etc...
4.) Writing to us is the smart thing to do - keep on being smart.
Play it smart means act intelligently. |
