    To answer your question of wether it is "normal" for someone to ask this, it would depend on what you were talking about. If someone asked you this and you were not already speaking about your brother it would not be normal. Generally they would ask "what do you do for a living?"

    The firt sentence wouldn't work. But the second two would, depending on the context.

    Hey Robin! Saying "I am going to plug in my headphones" is perfect! Also, it is usually "headphones" (you generally put the "s" on it even if it is one pair for one person). You could also say "earbuds," but "headphones" is more common. Some people say "headphones" when referring to those with the band over the top, ans "earbuds" for those that go in your ears.

    Hi Gabriel!

    1) You only use a colon (:) when there is a full sentence before the list you are giving. In this case there is not. It would read:

    "The state has the exclusive power to legislate on policies when it is for credit, foreign exchange, insurance, and transfer of values."

    2) For this one the order of your clauses is just a little bit mixed around. I would re-phrase like this:

    "The election of a representative of the employees, for the purpose of further direct negotiations, is ensured with more than 200 employees."

    This would be an example of a relative clause, in which the middle portion can be removed and the sentence still makes sense. It just adds additional information.

    Hope that helps!
