    All are correct ways to say the date of course, but the common usage is to generally far the quickest method of speaking, so 2015 is frequently spoken as 'twenty fifteen' simply because it is quicker to say it like this than to say 'two thousand and fifteen'. Both are correct though. In my experience American English is generally a more sloppy and lazy way of speaking English. They frequently drop their t's when speaking for example, and the word 'gonna' for 'going to' is an acceptable word for American English but definitely incorrect.

    There isn't actually much difference between the two sentences. I would say the first sentence is just slightly less formal than the second. This doesn't mean that one of them is right and the other is wrong, and I would not say the meaning of what you are saying is different in either sentence

    The second part of your sentence seems to be overly complicated. It looks to me like you have tried too hard to use complicated vocabulary instead of keeping it simple.

    'Hurt' would generally be used to describe a pain from an injury. For example if you were kicked in a game of football you would say your leg hurt. If you were tired, for example if you had carried bags of shopping for a long distance, you would say your arms 'ached'. Hurt is generally relating to more pain than something which aches, which is usually a lesser type of pain.

    The simple answer is you can't, it's impossible! You need to be exposed to the language, and you can do this in many ways of course

    Here goes! 1) You would say 'what kind of movies do you like?'. If you were talking about other people (and more than one person) you would say 'what kind of movies do they like?' If you were talking a bout a SPECIFIC movie, then you would ask 'did you like the movie?' 2) That kind of person, or those kind of people. You can see the difference here, when you are referring to a single person, or several people. 3) 'I like a special kind of series' There is no word in English 'serie'. Interestingly, there is an Italian word 'serie' as in the football league, 'Serie A' I hope this helps, but just let me know if you need any more help. Geoff

    yes, from your sentence it is clear that 'just before the peninsular' means where the property is physically located.
