Something that I never understand: damp and moist :) Can you help me to understand this difference, please? Thank you, Gian

digitalization or digitization ? In a job vacancy I found "support for all technological-related and digitalization projects". But writing with my Microsoft Word, it says "digitalization" is a mistake. I think my Word isn't up-to-date, but this fact suggested me to ask here a question. Do digitalization and digitization have the same meaning ? Is one of them not correct? Thank you! Gian

Big problem: people's age or centuries? Hello!!! I have a problem... when I've read the sentence "into their 70s", I thought it meant the years between 1970 to 1979, but actually it was referred to the age of people, from 70 to 79 years. I understand that when I say "in the 70s" it can be referred to 1970s or 1870s or 1570s... depending from the context. But how can I understand we are talking about people's age? Very complicated :D Thank you very much!!! :-)

Spree and its meanings Could you provide me some examples of the different uses of the term "spree", please? For example, I already know "killing spree", "buying spree", "shopping spree"... But if it isn't a compound noun, can I say "We have a spree because we want to finish our work as soon as possible" ? And if i say "I have a shopping spree", does it mean it is only that moment (I see many things in a shop and I want to buy all, that moment) or it is my character? Or both, probably? Sorry for the many questions :) Hope someone can put in order my mind :) :) :) Thanks very much!
