Expression Hi, there Would you please help me with some questions? Please!! 1) Could I say "I passed/walked close to a owl"? 2) If I want to say I am starting a twitter, starting working out, or if I am resuming my Twitter account or my workout routine, could I say "I need to get my twitter/workou routine going (again"? Odd? 3) If someone is using his phone next to me and I want to ask him to go to facbook, could I say "Get facebook up and type X in" or "Pull facebook up and type X in"? Or maybe "Get/pull facebook up on your phone and type X in"? 4) Could I say "Mom's phone's signal keeps dropping and then comes back"? Is this odd? What shoulf I say instead? 5) If you take a baby on a road trip but he/she gets very i(can I say get ill?) and you have to take him/her back home in a hrrt. Could I say "We have to rush him/her back over"? Back over? Is this odd Thank yoy very much!!!

1) Yes, 2) You can say both, it's more informal though. 3) I would say "open Facebook and type X in", otherwise maybe 'get' 4) Mom's phone signal keeps dropping and then coming back 5) Yep you can say 'gets ill'. 'Back over' does sound a little strange to me if you need to take the baby home. Sounds better just to say 'We have to rush him/her back home". Hope this helps :)
