Currently, I teach in a language training school and my students always ask me all sorts of questions about English that I’m uncertain about, since I’m not a native speaker. I suppose there are certain things that can't be expressed accurately in English , but I try to teach them the most useful and authentic expressions. Plus, one of my personal goals in life is to be truly bilingual ~ With that being said , I really appreciate the help offered by all the amazing people on italki to help me achieve my goals ! And i'm looking for friendly and interesting people to talk to and build a genuine friendship with , feel free to message me and I could help you with mandarin ~

    Is it common to say “ cherry-pick”? I looked it up in the dictionary and the definition is “to select the best or most desirable”, I wonder how I should use this word in a sentence. For example My classmates have cherry-picked the best teachers and I have been left with dogs. (Btw what does “ be left with dogs “ mean in this sentence ?) Thanks a lot!

    Is “ headphones“ the same as “ earphones “? I’m confused about the two words. I thought they are different. Headphones must be worn over the head while earphones must be plugged in our ears. But according to the definitions about the two words in the dictionary, they mean the same thing. So I’m confused, I’d like to confirm from native speakers. ThThanks a lot

    What is the most natural way to say “ wear many clothes ” and “ wear more clothes “ in English ? I was told that it sounds unnatural to say “ wear many clothes “ , so I wonder what the better alternatives are. Can I say “ wear many layers “ or “ wrap up warm “ ? As for “ wear more clothes “ , I guess the better alternative should be “ Put on an extra layer “ ? Am I right ? Thanks for your answer explanation !
