    Grammatically speaking, it should be "I've got" instead of "I got". The former is the correct way to say "I have/own/obtain", whereas the latter means "what you had in the past" as you knew. I'd say this is either a careless typing or a casual way to say it. BTW, "I've got" is not that easy to be heard clearly and distinguished from "I got" in a spoken language sometimes.

    The difference between "でも" and "しかし" in Japanese? I know they both mean "but" in English, can anyone tell me what the usage difference is between them? Many thanks in advance!

    "English" means a language itself, a person using this language or anything related to this language. If you'd like to introduce who you are, then you should say "I am an English". But if it is the personal style you want to describe to your friends so that they can get to know you more, then using "I am English" is also correct to say.

    A more polite way to say "No, thanks" in Japanese. When I entered a super market in a department store in Okinawa last month, there was a staff approached me and wanted to offer me a basket for shopping. Fact is I don't need it at all so I responded "結構です" to that staff. I soon regretted pretty much 'cause I found myself might just hurt that staff's feeling, plus I do know Japanese consider social manners pretty much seriously. So here's my question, what should I say in a more polite way in response to. Highly appreciate in advance for any precious advices.

    Well, "literally" has the following 2 main meanings: 1. Word for word to understand what's being told. 2. To emphasize the truth or actions. Sometimes English native speakers use metaphors to describe something without saying it "literally", so when they'd like to emphasize it, they'd say it as it looks by using "literally" instead of "do/did/does". For instance, He "literally" exploded with rage. = He "did" explode with rage. = 他“簡直”氣炸了!= 他“真的”氣炸了! meaning, He was "really really really" angry!

    Sentence number 2 is the correct one, 'cause "last spring" is a season in the past.

    Just like you mentioned, it ended up with no luck after I googled it all night! However, I found a sound track for you: https://damienirwin.bandcamp.com/track/cup-of-tea

    In short, it means "whether the item must be thrown away or not". Usually there'll be a notice on the wrapper of the item you bought to indicate how it should be taken care of after unwrapped, to dispose or to recycle. The whole statement can usually be found inside the "necessity of disposal" notice block on the wrapper.
