Dear Teachers,

1. You should praise her when she does good things. I think you see where I�m going here.
- �I think you see where I�m going here� means ��you know what I�m talking about�, right?

2. Is there any difference between �medicine� and �drug�? or are they the same meaning?

Thanks a lot to Teachers,

Stevenukd

1. Yes. It means, "You can understand where this discussion is going, can't you?"

2. A medicine is a drug or some natural concoction that a doctor prescribes to cure some ailment or ease some kind of pain. A drug can be a medicine or something illegal used for purposes other than curing illness.
