I'm Chris! I spent a lot of time in the US Navy working on Submarines. I now work with individuals who don't get out much. I'm learning spanish to assist me in future career goals. I'm looking to expand my abilities and speak with individuals who speak spanish and may be interested in learning English or having someone to talk to.

    Well there are lots of synonyms for the word "beyond." (see: http://thesaurus.com/browse/beyond) However, none of them would really fit in the sentence without significant changes to this. What the person is saying is that: 1. Because they told the truth they were *very* *very* embarrassed. It's just kind of slang to say we went beyond a feeling. For example, If I said I was "beyond angry." This would mean that I was not just angry, but that I was really - really angry! 2. beyond here could be changed for "not within" or "past." However, beyond would be the correct choice.

    Normally, I would say something like, "I will look it up." This is because when you grab a dictionary, you will never be on the right page! You will have to "look" through the book in order to find the word you need.

    It's kind of customary to celebrate patriotic events with sparklers (fireworks) on U.S. holidays such as the 4th of July (independence day). On lots of media and advertising materials there may be pictures of kids holding sparklers. The person saying she basically had "sparklers coming out of her ass" is saying that she was trying really hard to seem patriotic. Totally shameless means: Completely without shame. This would mean that girl (who was singing) did not care about what she was doing, how she looked, or maybe how she performed.

    Generally speaking, these words are the same. When we talk about nation we are also speaking about the country. For example, these two sentences provide the same context: "The Nation will vote next week." "The country will vote next week." If you go further into comparative politics, the definition of what 'nation" is can change (but that is beyond the scope of your question).

    Yes. You can use justify in this context. I might suggest if you are asking someone that you go with "expound." This word instead asks the individual to explain or go into greater detail. When you start off with "justify" you are implying that the individual is already wrong or incorrect and that they need to prove that they are right.

    A new world

    Learning a new language is like an adventure. Why?? Because, you have good moments and you have bad and embarassing moments; but this is the life. Studying English has been an exciting experience because I'm in a classroom with 20 or 25 guys,.  We are all the same age. they are the same age of mine, I like spending to time to with them, but sometimes they're lazy and just want to be playing all the time, and that is stressing ... there are several factor that impendent me improve my skills in the classroom :( (Are you saying that some things are keeping you from improving?)


    I like learning other languagues and I do not do just it for a pleasure. although because It Knowing other languages is important when you have to get a job,. You can get a better job than you expect. The world is demanding to the that people to speak more than one languague. Another important thing is You can know and sharing share experiences with a lot of people.
