- Is the correct word girlie or girly? And what does it mean?
crwdns2631929:0crwdne2631929:0
Hello Milania, You can use both of them. The two of them are correct and you can choose another one meaning the same 'girlish'. It is an adjective and it is used to refer to things related to girls. In some contexts it is used referring to nude women. On the other hand, you can see it just by referring to feminine clothes. See the following examples: A girlie magazine = a magazine with erotic pictures of girls. She looks girlie in that dress = she looks feminine. I hope you find it useful. Don't hesitate to text me if you need more help. Kind regards,
- What preposition should I use with the verb "to be born"?
Can I say "I was born on..." or "I was born in..."? Which of the prepositions is correct?
crwdns2631929:0crwdne2631929:0
Hi Kimbley. You can use both prepositions for different uses. You would say "I was born on" with a date or the weekday, e.g. I was born on the 1st of June, I was born on a Saturday, etc. Whereas, you would say "I was born in" with a place, month, season, time of day (not the specific time, for this you would need to use "at") or year, e.g. I was born in England, I was born in June, I was born in the summer, I was born in the morning, I was born in 1990. It's not a simple answer, as different prepositions can be used with the same words but for different purposes. I recommend you have a lesson focussed on prepositions and their uses.

Hi Victorzzz. I asked the support desk for you, and they said that 5 lessons is the maximum you can buy with a subscription. However, if you would like more than this, you can upgrade your subscription and add extra credits. So, fortunately, it does seem possible! The 'need help?' function at the bottom of the screen is really useful for these types of questions. :)

Hello solamio There aren’t is the contracted form of there are not, and both means the same. One might sound better in a sentence but that doesn’t make the other incorrect or different. It’s totally up to the speaker to chose and use which ever pleases him/her. Thanks

Whereas ,"I'm sorry to bother you" , the action is going to happen and you are starting with the apology before the action of 'bothering ' takes place . Happy learning.

- Hello! What is the right option: by who or by whom?
When I want to say about the one who performed an action but in passive voice, should I use by who or whom?
crwdns2631929:0crwdne2631929:0
Hi Richardson, Whom should be used to refer to the object of a verb or preposition. When in doubt, try this simple trick: If you can replace the word with “he”’ or “’she,” use who. If you can replace it with “him” or “her,” use whom. Who should be used to refer to the subject of a sentence. Whom should be used to refer to the object of a verb or preposition. When to Use Who In a sentence, who is used as a subject. Let’s look at a couple of examples: Who would like to go on vacation? Who made these awesome quesadillas? When to Use Whom Whom is used as the object of a verb or preposition. Consider these examples: To whom was the letter addressed? Whom do you believe?
