Don't hustle me Hello:

P!nk just launched a song, Don't hustle me, and I don't understand what this means. Could you explain it to me?

The lyrics:

I gave you soft, I gave you sweet

Just like a lion, you came for a sheep

Oh no, don't try to hustle me

You took my love, mistook it for weakness

I guarantee I won't repeat this

No, don't try to hustle me

I live my life like a bullet in a gun

Give you all my love 'til my patience is done

Oh no, don't try to hustle me

"Can we tidy up?" Hello,

I am a teacher and my last class finishes at 2pm. When it's 1:55pm, my students usually want to pack up all their stuff (pencilcase, notebook, laptop) and go home. They want to know how to say that in English.

Is "Can we tidy up" correct?

For those who speak Spanish, they say "podemos recoger?".

I am not sure how to translate that.

"I was more the X kind of person" One of my friends asked me if I used to watch Muzzy to learn English when I was a kid, and I want to say that I preferred Cartoon network. Is this sentence correct?: "I was more the Cartoon Network kind of person".

Thanks!

Direct object at the beginning of the sentence 1.The presentation you can do on your own. 2. You can do the presentation on your own. Hello! I was walking down the street and a question popped into my head. Are both sentences correct? And what is the difference? When do we say the direct object first (at the beginning of the sentence)? Thanks!!

Language buddy I teach English in Spain, and sometimes I see problems or I have questions that I want to discuss with a native speaker. I am looking for a language exchange. Ideally, it would be someone who wants to know more about the Spanish culture and language, so that we can help each other.
