    You can say "What do you mean by that?" or "Why do you say that?" Without repeating the entire question. Example Johnny says "You are so stingy." Mary says "What do you mean by that?" Another Example Sam says "You're so stingy." Mary says "Why do you say that?" Another Example John says "I don't like that teacher, he's mean." Mary says "What do you mean by that? I think he's nice." Another Example John says "I don't like that teacher, he's mean." Mary says "Why do you say that? I think he's nice."

    Where are you? I'm at the store. Where are you? I'm in the store. (I'm physically in the store). Both are correct. At = always location, always a specific time (at home, at the store, at the beach, at 4pm, at 3:30, at 1:10, etc) In = within something, within a period of time (In the box, in the refrigerator, in the car, in the room, in the beginning, in the past, in the afternoon, in the morning, in the evening, in the 1800s, in the 1900s, etc)

    Cómo uso "a", "como", y "que"? No comprendo los usos de las palabras "a", "como" y "que" para conectar las frases.

    Relationship

    As I have grown up, I feel that dealing with the problems in relationships can be very difficult.
    When I was young, I tried my best to resolve disagreements.
    I didn't understand some of my friends who argued a lot.
    But one dayI realized that there are many factors that determine whether the relationship will be peaceful or contentious. Although I didnt mean it, some people misunderstood my intentions and became annoyed. Of course I tried to clear up their misunderstanding. But when they got frustrated I quickly stopped trying.

    It is so difficult for me !
    I might be too young to deal with these types of problems.

    El concepto es que algo pasó, y asi que lo aprovechará. Algo inesperado. En ingles usted quiere mostrar que estás contento porque lo pasó. Puede decir "I'm glad that it rained, let's go to the club." o "It's good that it rained, let's go to the club" o "I'm glad that you called, because I wanted to talk to you about__" o "It's good that you called, because I'd like to speak with you about___".

    Great question. Here are some subtle differences: "Of" usually implies that you're not very familiar with something (or someone), have thought about something for a short period of time, or express uncertainty about a particular topic. Example: Did you think of co-parenting? (Meaning: Did it occur to you that co-parenting is an alternative to marriage?) Example: I know of Johnny. (Meaning: I know that Johnny exists and I know what he looks like, but I don't know his personality that well.) Example: I thought of trying that. (Meaning: I thought of trying that, and I tried it even though I wasn't sure if it'd work.) Example: I thought of doing that. (Meaning: I thought of doing that, but I didn't do it because I wasn't sure if it'd work.) "About" implies that you're very familiar with something (or someone), have thought extensively about something, or express certainty about a particular topic. Example: Did you think about marriage? (Did you consider it's pros and cons?) Example: I thought about the teacher's lesson, and it made perfect sense. (I thought about all the points that the teacher made & understood them.) Example: Did he think about the consequences of his actions? (Did he think about the moral consequences of his actions and how it impacted other people?)
