1. Context is needed, but I believe the speaker is saying that they feel like people are staring at them like they are looking at a piece of meat (i.e. eyeing them hungrily) instead of looking at a person. The speaker is likely wearing something revealing/provocative. 2. Funny-looking, weird, and strange are all words that would describe "goofy" here. 3. From Wiktionary: Drive - "(Military) A sustained advance in the face of the enemy to take a strategic objective. Synonyms: attack, push Napoleon's drive on Moscow was as determined as it was disastrous." "On" specifically is the natural preposition for this noun. "Driving on" implies they are advancing toward their objective - Berlin, in this case 4. This is an instruction for controlling a vehicle - in this case likely an aircraft. A stick in this context is the control device, AKA "flight stick" "joystick" or just "stick" in English. The command "Hard stick right" means to push/pull the vehicle controls forcefully to the right - likely as hard as you are physically able (within reason.) 5. Colloquial, especially in the southern US - "on" doesn't hold meaning other than it is how we imply a direction of movement. Compare it to "Go on," "Head on (over, out, etc.)" "Come on (over)" 6. "To settle for" is to agree/accept something even if it is not 100% satisfactory, i.e. a compromise. In this case, the speaker/listener likely want to open the object, but will "settle for" a peek inside instead of fully opening it.

This is regional and conversational, but it is natural - I would say this in the Southern US. It is an abbreviated form that omits "while" and sometimes "from" "I broke my leg (while) skiing." "I lost a tooth (while) playing rugby." "I made myself sick (from) eating ice cream." Etc.

The meaning is correct, but we would generally not say it with any other details. Adding it to specific examples makes it feel unnatural. Generally, we would say something like "Let's just play it by ear" without mentioning whatever "it" is. Example: "What should we do for the class project?" "Eh, let's just play it by ear."

"I went to a cafe with a rooftop balcony this morning."

"Slugger" is a nickname. It refers to baseball - a player known for their power when hitting. Similar nicknames in US English - champ, chief, kid, pal, bud. "Looking good today, Slugger!" "How about some help over here, Slugger?" Etc. "Hang in there" - Don't quit, keep trying, persevere "It may seem hard now, but if you hang in there you will reach your goals." "Hang in there - the weekend is only two days from now."

It means that you loved your time in the other country and will always remember it. And that you might even go back if given the chance.

American English - It is not used other than in expressions. We would say "to mend fences" (to make up with someone) or "on the mend" (recovering) but I can't think of any daily use for it.

Based on the context, Anna is transferring a file to her computer. While English speakers might use "copying" or even "copy-pasting" to describe this in an informal conversation, it is internet slang and not proper English. "Uploading" is the correct choice for this action. *Native speaker, but not an educator - hope this helps!
