- Unfounded = baseless, unproven, unsupported. An unfounded fear is one that has no basis; it may be irrational. In your sentence, she started realizing that her anxiety and fears were NOT unfounded, which means that there IS a reason for her to be anxious and fearful. I hope this helps!0 votedFebruary 9, 20201
- To charge someone with a crime is to accuse them of a crime. Formally, "charged with a crime" is used when a formal allegation has been made and a warrant is issued for their arrest. In your sentence, police haven't been able to accuse anyone of the crime; no one has been charged with the crime yet. http://definitions.uslegal.com/c/charged-with-crime/0 votedJuly 6, 20120
I'm sick of soccer
These are two days, which in Spain during which the only news are is (1) about soccer. We don't have news about finance, politicians, or anything other thing else (2). Players are going to recieve an (3) extra pay of three hundred thousand euros, (4) because they have been are (5) the winners of the Eurocopa. And we have are very luck by because of this (6). In my opinion, they must should play soccer on Sunday, like all the other people who work.
1. "News" is an uncountable noun; that is, in both the singular and plural forms, it is "news." In your sentence "news" is singular, so the verb should agree.
2. The phrase is "anything else." It means the same thing that you were trying to say by "any other thing."
3. In most cases, nouns that begin with a vowel call for the indefinite article "an," and nouns that begin with a consonant call for the indefinite article "a." There are exceptions, such as "an hour."
4. No comma should precede "because."
5. Aren't they <em>still</em> the winners? Are they no longer the winners? If they are still considered the winners of the Eurocopa, then the verb (they are) should be in the present tense.
6. In English, we usually say we are lucky because of something, not that <em>we have a lot of luck because of something</em>.

1. To say the time in English, use "it is":
It is five o'clock.
It is midday.
It is nighttime.
It is 8:30PM.
2. Common mistake, even for natives. Here's a trick. Cover up the other part of the subject:
My family and me are going out to dinner.
-> Me are going out to dinner.
(Ignore the verb while doing this trick.)
You wouldn't say that, would you? You'd say instead:
I am going out to dinner.
-> My family and I are going out to dinner.
Remember: "I" is the subject; "me" is the object of a verb or preposition.
3. The phrase is "going out":
My family and I are going out.
My family and I are going out to dinner.
My family and I are going out to a bar.
My family and I are going out to the bowling alley.
4. Missing article.
5. I see "how we say" a lot with learners of English. I think it's a direct translation of a phrase in Spanish. In your sentence, though, it's "as we say." However, you can also say, "That's how we say it!"
6. "There" usually implies something further away, but since the photo is in the post, it makes more sense to say "here."
Without all of the corrections:
Well, now it is nine o'clock and my family and I are going out to dinner. Surely the first option will be snail soup, or "caracolitos," as we say. Also, here is a photo.
