Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Guy"

A: It’s used when someone accepts a challenge or someone trying to be better than them. “Come on guys” is you telling your friends to join you in whatever you are gonna do. And “it’s on” means “challenge accepted.” for example, when playing a game of soccer the other team keeps on pushing yours. So much that two of your players have had to leave the field. Now you are tired and annoyed. So you say “Come on guys, it's on, ” and then your team starts playing dirty too or working harder

A: beamer = BEEMER = BMW (car)

she wants to find someone who likes HER, not her car.

A: Maybe a "heater" could mean a good answer... I have actually never heard it used in that way

A: The guy sees me, and comes over to me

A “trot” is when a horse walks quickly, so “trot” can also mean to jog or walk quickly for people too

A: Dear Mr. Williams,
I have an appointment for a health check-up with you on Saturday. I apologize, but can't come because I will be out of the city this weekend for business. I will be free next Saturday. Can we meet at your office then?

Sincerely,

I am not sure what the book means by 5 mistakes, so I have made the email more natural. I hope you can correlate it with your lesson and identify the 5 mistakes.

A: "I never been" is most likely "I've never been" which is exactly the same as "I have never been."

examples:

I have never been fishing.
I've never been to Spain.

you will also sometimes hear people drop the "I have/I've" entirely when speaking.

Examples:

"Have you been there?"
"No, never been there."

Hope this helps!

A: A guy is a male.
But
Guys can refer to males or people.
*e.g this side of the shop sells guys' clothes and this side is for girls'
(Guys' = mens')
*e.g Could you guys please wait for me
(Guys = could refer to a group)

A: no, it’s not a rude word at all. The word “guy” typically means ‘man’ but when you are talking to a group of 2+ people, you can say “you guys”. It just makes it friendlier and there is no gender😊

For example:
• Do you guys fancy going out for lunch?
• Are you guys hungry?
• How are you guys?
• What do you guys want to do at the weekend?
• It’s nice to see you guys again!
• Have you guys watched this new film?

Another new term for you is ‘internet troll’ which is what @Kizukarigizu is. See this link for the full definition: https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.urbandictionary.com/define.php%3fterm=Trolling&=true

A: Check the question to view the answer

A: "resplendent"＝"bright"

"redundant"＝"repetitive" （"redundant" is used more in writing）

"examination"＝"exam"

"gentleman"＝"man" ("gentleman" is more formal)

"ancient"＝"old"

"precious"＝"valuable"

"enormous"/"colossal"/"massive"＝"big"

"exquisite"＝"pretty"/"beautiful"

"covetous"＝"jealous"

A: Nothing, in terms of the meaning. The second one sounds better to me though.

You need a comma in the first one though: “What do you think, guys?”

Both are also the same as “Guys, what do you think?”

A: I think you mean “with” not “whit”.

Your sentences both mean the same thing, but most people would say the first one. The second one sounds like maybe he is carrying the suit, not wearing it.

A: "Hey guys" Is an informal way to greet many people, for example. hey guys i would like you to meet my new assistant.

"hey class" is also an informal way to used to greet students in a class. for example ,hey class don't forget to do your assignments .
while "hey everyone" is an informal way to greet a group of people for example your teammates

this expressions can also be used to call for their attention.

A: Ah, "He went on to..." emphasizes the fact that it was not immediate that he "became the biggest.." but that it was a process

If you just say "He became..." it might have been that day after or the month after or many years later - because it is less committal about how long.

A: @Jennypark99 first sentence can mean she’s already having a bf and she’s seeing another one right now. And also it can mean that she broke up and now seeing another one too.
The second one emphasizes when someone asked “is she still dating (name)?” And the reply “no she’s dating someone else”
Probably the person who answers this question may doesn’t know about her new boyfriend :/

I hope it helps :)

A: Can I just go and queue in line if I don't have a reservation?

A: I just called and ordered my food, and now I am here to collect it.

A: I want to take you guys somewhere that isn't a Hawaiian style restaurant. Like somewhere you guys haven't been

A: If I knew you were coming to this room I would’ve made this room private and not public

Might’ve = maybe
Would’ve = statement

A: I recently met a guy on this app that’s from [ Insert country name here ] who’s looking for language exchange partners. However, his purpose for finding exchange partners was really suspicious, to be honest. He seemed to enjoy talking about money only, as well as FX. Recently, it seems that there’s an increase of these guys on this app. And they are usually from the same country too.

A: × One of guys are really good at playing Mario kart and he is the only guy to keep being the first and it seems like others don’t feel like continuing it.
✓ One guy is really good at Mario Kart and he keeps coming in first, so it seems like the others don’t feel like playing anymore.

The second sentence is also unnatural to me but it might be because I'm middle-aged. Here are some alternatives to consider:
"I don't think it's a good idea to keep playing."
"I think we should stop."
"I think we should do something else."
"If we keep playing it's going to kill the mood."
"If we keep playing it's going to ruin the atmosphere."

A: if the reality and what you wish is not the same, what you wish must more past(?) than reality.
