Hello! I agree with Sandi! "Right" is used for emphasis in the phrase "kept right on". "Kept right on" means continuing to do something, even though the person is expected to stop. Example: I saw him on his bicycle. I waved to him, but he kept right on going! (He didn't stop to wave back) I told her to stop chopping tomatoes, because we had enough for the salad. But she kept right on going! (She continued chopping tomatoes even though she was supposed to stop) The meeting was supposed to end at 5 pm, but the boss kept right on talking until 5:30! (The boss was supposed to stop talking at the end of the meeting, but he or she did not) Keep in mind that the phrase "kept right on" is informal and has a mild negative connotation. Native speakers generally use this phrase with friends or family when they want to express confusion or frustration about someone's actions.

Hello Ashraful! "judge by" talks about character traits or observation. "They judged him by his clothing to be a very rich person." "Never judge a book by its cover." "Judging by the peeling paint, I would say that this chair is very old." "judge on" talks about performance, competition, and contests. "He entered a public speaking contest, and was judged on his ability to persuade others. He scored a 10 out of 10." "In the ice carving competition, competitors are judged on their skill and creativity." In the sentence, "Is gender you judge someone by?", it is "judge by". Hope that helps!

When we are talking about our home, we drop the “the” and just say “home”. When we say “the home”, it can mean a facility that cares for elderly people or people living with disabilities. When we are talking about a place where someone else lives, it’s more common to say “the house”. :) Great question!

Accent happens when a native speaker puts the pronunciation/stress rules of his or her first language onto another language.

Both are used in native English speech, but “an da” is used when the speaker is speaking slowly, and “an na” is generally used when the speaker is speaking very quickly. This may vary depending on the speaker.

I recommend brainscape.com. I just started using it to study Japanese, and my word retention has improved dramatically!

These two sentences appear virtually the same to me. However, there may be a slight difference in meaning, depending on the speaker. “I’ll see that he doesn’t get up to any mischief” implies that it’s possible “he” will try to get up to mischief, and that the speaker will stop him IF he tries. “I’ll see that he won’t get up to mischief” implies that “he” will definitely try to get up to mischief, and that the speaker is determined to stop him. Hope that helps!

2. is the most natural to me as well. However, when the possessive pronoun “his” is used, 3. seems more natural to me. I suspect the reason 2. sounds more natural than 1. to English speakers is that 2. avoids an awkward repetition of sounds.
