    I guess Sil must have something to do with Japan. Not because she loves anime. But because of the Japanese emoticons she uses.
    I wish I''d love anime so I can enjoy your fiction stories, Sil !

    SORE THUMB !!!
    Yeah thanks, that''s great !!!
    Thank u also sil, ur Eng is so good. Can i ask ''how old r u'' ?
    Actually these 2 q r taken from Headway Advanced. Now i''m studying it on my own, so sure that i will have to ask u all if i have troubles.
    I had had some ideas for the 1st q b4 posting but i wanna get more interesting & correct ideas.
    E.g : For "get urself a drink !" i''m afraid that it''s not just simple as Sil thinks, becuz another sent. in that exercise is "Help urself, plz", which all know as " Make urself at home "
    Eng is so complicated anyway !
    Good luck 2 all !!!

    pphn: Context should always be considered an important factor, as Sil has pointed out. In a figurative sense, "get yourself a drink" may have various meanings depending on the context. Say, if you tell someone to wait for something, tell her "I''''ll do that for ya. Get urself a drink!" Or if you think someone should relax (because she''''s nervous, or worried, or mad, or whatever...), tell her "Come on, go get urself a drink!" Or it can be said as a kind of congratulation: "Get urself a drink! You passed the exam!" blah blah blah... I''''m too lazy now to think of other things....

    là bởi vì mình cũng đang làm theo cách này mà, chỉ mỗi tội là hơi lười nên chỉ có thể đọc một ít trước khi đi ngủ & một ít trong lúc "trút bầu tâm sự" trong washroom

    Japanese, you asked?
    Watashi no Nihongo wa warui desu. ;) Demo..Arigato Captor_of_sins-san. Anata no English wa sugoi desu. ^_-
    More mysteries to solve, Mila. ;) I don''t know where I''m residing. ;)
    Indeed, pphn, "get yourself a drink" can also mean "make yourself at home" and all that (jazz ;) ), however, it is VERY important that a context is supplied, because a word can have a METAPHORICAL meaning, a FIGURATIVE meaning, and a LITERAL meaning, IMPLICATION and HINTS are equally important.
    ^^ Hahah.. I feel so overated and my ego would so explode soon.

    Doi la bien kho..
