How do you say these words in Chinese?
I know I could use a dictionary, but sometimes the dictionary doesn't give me the most accurate words:Turn (比如, 网球和乒乓球,it's your turn to serve)
Imply
Throw\toss
Spot (比如,牛)
Alternate between (I alternate between Shopping at K-mart and Walmart. 我有时候去K-Mart买东西,我有时候去沃尔玛买东西?)
Empty (有空的?)
ring (圆?)
At ones expense.

Chinese is a language different from English. Never try to match one Chinese character or word with a fixed English word or phrase.
Imply, v.暗示,意味;
throw, v.投,掷,抛,扔,basically same with toss
spot, n.斑点,点
alternate betwween doing A and doing B,时而doing A,时而doing B
empty, adj.空(kong第一声)的
ring. n.戒指,圆环,环状物

Turn, if I have to translate as a noun, I think I would translate it as "回合“, so "it is your turn to serve " you can say" 轮到你了” or "现在是你的回合了",literally.

Turn (比如, 网球和乒乓球,it's your turn to serve): It's difficult to find an appropriate word translation here for "turn" in Chinese. It'd be much better if you put it in the context of 网球or乒乓球. So basically you could say: 该你发球了/轮到你发球了。
