Just like in any language, there are grammar rules that aren't always followed by native speakers. This is one of them. Many native speakers will use the more informal "there's" for both singular and plural, especially when speaking. You can also use it in speaking and it won't be noticeable; however, writing can be more formal and you should try to use the correct subject-verb agreement. Informal writing like text messages could also use the "there's" without issue. I usually recommend as a non-native speaker to try to follow the grammar rules as much as possible. Great question!

I know you have a few suggestions for corrections, but those would be syle corrections. I want you to know that your writing is grammatically correct and clear to understand. Great job with this writing!

You're correct in your understanding of the lyrics...it's like "he created this feeling in me" or "he made me feel like dancing and crying" The verb "got" is very versatile in English and we use it for so many meanings! Great question!

You can not say those two phrases as affirmatives. You can say one of the following: "It will do", "That will do", "It'll do", "That'll do", "yes, that's good", "yes, that works". Other ways to also say "yes" could be: "correct, right, perfect, great, yup, yeah" depending on context and formality. I hope that helps.

"Send it to me after 10:00 on 7 Aug" is correct. This means on the date of 7 Aug, after 10:00 in the morning. The second one "Send it to me after 7 Aug at 10:00" means AFTER 7 August at exactly 10:00 (so on 8 Aug???) it's very confusing. You could also write "Send it to me on 7 Aug after 10:00" That order doesn't matter but the prepositions DO matter to explain (on, after). Let me know if you have any other questions. Happy learning!

Hi Song! Thanks for the question. This is a little bit confusing in English, but in my opinion, there is not a big difference between the two types of adjectives (east or eastern). The small difference is the feeling between the two. If I say "I live in east Spain" I am describing a region of the country. If I say, "I live in eastern Spain" I am describing the general idea but maybe not the specific region. I can say just "I live in the east". This is because "east, west, north, south" usually describe the direction or region and "eastern, western, northern, southern" can describe places but also other things such as "southern food" or "northern accent". In all of your examples, both would work fine. I hope that answers your question, but if you want to create more examples for me to look at or book a trial lesson with me to discuss grammar futher, I will be happy to help! - Teacher Alicia

Hi Susanna, I agree with Phil on this interpretation. I believe the author here means that "in the past, these two boys had been in many fights" as in, fighting wouldn't be a new experience at this time. If I say "I read a lot" it can mean "I read often" or "I read many books" but it's an experience. So I think the interpretation of "They fought often" is good here.

Thanks for the list of links for listening practice!
