    1) "Out here" refers to just being some where. It's just a way to talk. Also, it implys that Washington County, Tennesssee is in a more rural part of the state. They could have just as easily said "We are here, in Washington County, ..." 2) Your friends being late would be disrespectful to you or disrespectful towards you. You would likely say, "That was very disrespectful" . If for example, their car broke down or the bus was late, something that wasn't their fault you could say, "That was lame" referring to the reason that caused them to be late. "Sorry we are late, the car broke down" "Oh, that's lame". In that case it was not their fault they were late to meet you. 3)I would agree that "on a scale" sounds more natural, I can't say if there is anything wrong with the first but it does sound strange. 4) If you just wanted to say that, I would say "I messed up on the/your/his/her remodel" I hope this helps!

    I would say, "The World Trade Center was comprised of seven buildings before it was destroyed." "The World Trade Center was a complex of seven buildings before it was destroyed."

    Usually people say the following: "I am worried." / "He is worried." "I am starting to get worried." / "I am beginning to get worried." / "I started getting worried." Rather than "feel worried", it is usually simply "I am worried." or "Are you worried?" though you could say "Are you feeling worried?" as well.

    To turn the tables means: To reverse one's position relative to someone else, especially by turning a position of disadvantage into one of advantage. This means that after years of Mattel making more and being more successful than Hasbro, Hasbro has suddenly become more successful than Mattel because of the Frozen dolls. They were doing poorly for a long time but suddenly they were doing better than the other company.

    Well, like anything else, you simply must endure. It can feel disheartening when you seem to be making little progress but it could be that you do not notice how well you are doing. The best way is to simply keep at it. If you are having trouble, make sure what you are practicing is not too hard for you. Also, speaking with other people makes things a lot easier because you have active feedback. When you read something, read it out loud, look up all the words you don't know and constantly ask yourself if you understand what is going on. It's tough learning a language, just hang in there!

    To me, "on account of him" sounds very strange. Usually it is "on [my/his/her] account," For example. "Please, do not stop on my account," It might be okay both ways but I feel the first is very odd. I'd rather say, "Because of him, we do not have food," instead of "on account of him, we have no food," as it sounds better to me but still could be correct.
