    Forgetting everything when talking to other people! Am I the only one that completely blanks out when trying to speak with others in the language I am learning (Spanish). I talk to myself all the time in Spanish and it sounds good to me:) As soon as I try to talk to a native speaker, I panic and forget everything and all that comes out is "ummm" "hmmmm" "ahhhh".

    "A good of a speaker" would only be used in a comparison- "he is as good of a speaker as she is". On its own it doesn't make sense

    In the U.S. we don't generally say double four or triple five. We would say them as forty-four or just four-four and five-five-five. Thus, 6666 would either be sixty-six sixty six, or six-six-six-six

    Hi, The "y" in "ready" is pronounced like the ee in Sheep. So it is pronounced like "red-ee" In "you're" the "re" is weak. It usually ends up getting slurred together as sounds like "yer" or "your" (as in your ball, your hat...). Pronouncing the word as "your" would sound more proper than the shortened "yer" sound.

    Neither of those sentences make sense. Maybe there is something lost in the translation? Given the context, I assume they are trying to say that great managers make it a nice place to work (make blue skies) and they are out and involved with their team day to day (put themselves about). But you wouldn't actually use either of those sentences to say that.

    1) You could say either "flew her in" or "flew her out here". I guess it should technically be "in" but "out" is used more frequently. 2) "shot", in this case, means it's worn out. "Blew out the springs" = broke the springs 3) usually people say they drove over a pothole. The tire description would depend on how it happened. If you went over the pothole and your tire just went flat, you can say "my tire just went flat", "I got a flat" something along those lines. A "blow out" is generally more of an event- if your tire sort of explodes you would call it a blow out. While "punctured" would be technically correct if something went into the tire, it's not common to exclaim "my tire was just punctured"

    Personally, I would use "down" to mean you are staying on your street and walking for 3 blocks. I would use "over" to mean you have to turn right or left off of your street and go 3 blocks to a street that is parallel to the one you are on.

    Giddy: really excited about something to the point of being giggly or silly. "She was giddy with excitement"- When you are so excited about something that you can't contain the excitement. Dizzy: When you feel like you are going to faint. You could say "dizzy with excitement" but that isn't used as commonly.

    "Represent" is a very slang way of saying they are representing their town. It's actually "representing" but it is usually pronounced "representin". Another slang version of this is "in the house". For example, "where are you from?" "New Jersey in the house" or "New Jersey, representin'". It's not something you would normally use in a conversation. "Beyond"- the way I have heard this used, is that it is used to emphasize what was just said so it can mean super cool, frustrating, annoying, etc. For example, if someone is talking about an annoying customer, they might say "she was beyond" which, in this case would mean "beyond annoying". But, if someone is talking about a great concert they went to and said it was "beyond" that would mean it was "beyond cool". So it basically reflects back the context of the conversation. Again, this is very slang and is something you would use with friends or in a fun way. Not in a formal or professional conversation.
