What does replace with mean?
- English (US)
@Israel_de_Araujo yes! if you were at a carnival/parade and it started raining, that would be a little unfortunate. “Raining on someone’s parade” is an expression by the way. So don’t take it in a literal sense.

@LearnThings thx, what does this sentence mean? It can't rain on my parade! He can't do it. and also what does"parade" mean?
- English (US)
@IsraeldeAraujo “*He can’t rain on my parade! He can’t do it.” would be used like you’re in disbelief. A “how could he do this?” kind of sentence. Parade means a celebration with dancers and floats and stuff, but in this context it would just mean ruin your mood basically.

@LearnThings I can't picture a "parade" do you think you could help me with an image ? I would of it myself but because I'm not sure what as to what it is I prefer ask you do it!

@IsraeldeAraujo I’d say this is a good example of a parade.
