A window of time is an idiom. It's just another way to say 'an amount of time in which something can/could happen'. When a window is open you can climb through it, correct?. But, if I tell you that I am going to close the window in one minute, then you have one minute to climb through the window. Here is another example: tonight the sun will set between 7:15 - 7:30. If you want to take a picture of the sunset you can't go out side at 6:30, or 8:00. There is a small 'window of time' (15 minutes) in which you can take a nice picture of the sunset. Only after the window opens (7:15) or before the window closes (8:30) are you able to take a picture of the sunset. We might also call this a 'window of opportunity'. Decent simply means 'pretty good' or 'not bad' or 'OK'

I can't access the audio either but 'eagle wraps' doesn't make any sense. It is very likely that that is not what was actually said or not what they meant to say. Maybe it was some kind of 'collapse'? 'Economic Collapse' or something that sounds similar to 'eagle wraps'.

So the author is talking about how Frida had Polio as a child but lived through it. "Its a gift to survive death, isn't it?" ---- The author is saying that escaping death is a gift, perhaps because it gives the survivor a different outlook/appreciation for life. "It puts US outside the fray."--- now the author is talking about Frida and including himself by using 'us'. "How strange, that I include myself, I wonder now what I mean" ---- The author is wondering why he included himself in the sentence before this one. The author did not not survive death, he did not have Polio or some other condition that almost killed him. So why did he say that "it puts US outside the fray"? This question is answered in the following sentences.

So in this instance nudge still carries the same meaning but it is a metaphor as you guessed. In your example a budget obviously can not physically nudge anything, but it can help create some non-physical economic change or boost. The meaning is still the same though 'to push in a gentle way'. The budget is 'pushing' the economy forward/up.

I think you are talking about reported speech, like in a newspaper? If so.... Normally we talk about subjects doing something to an object. For example: "The goalie kicked the ball into the stands." Goalie is the subject and he kicked the object (the ball). When using reported speech we talk about things being done/happening to the object. We would change the example above to this: The ball was kicked into the stands by the goalie. The subject and object switch places We still use verb 2 We need to include was/were before the verb.

Line 2: you are talking about interactive subtitles, the 's' at the end of subtitle makes it plural so you are talking about more than one of them. When you have plural nouns like this you don't need to use indefinite articles (a or an). Line 3: again you are referring to the subtitleS, so you want your subject to be 'they' not 'it' because there are many subtitles. Line 6: I'd like to suggest you use my system for your videos. You don't need that 'to' after 'you'.
