    It sounds like wind up means pump up, excite, fire up, etc.

    Wind someone up
    Inf. Fig. I want to get a person excited. What about my hobby-what is that?

    We can rewrite it to be something like

    you don’t pump up the crowd when the score is 4-0. You do it at 1-0. Is not humiliating?

    So it sounds like the “you” didn’t start pumping in the crowd until the score was 4-0. Do we have to wait for the losing team to rebound? Mourinho thinks “you” need to have gone to meet the supporters far earlier, when the score was 1-0. “It’s humiliating”, likely refers to the fact that no effort was made to wind up the crowd sooner.

    Should we worry about

    the pre-title teaser: Firefly tv series backstory? The Universal logo changes to show ships leaving the 25th Century Earth as a teacher’s voice-over describes the exodus from “Earth that was” and the terraforming and colonization of planets in the new’verse. An

    introduction to the system government known as the Alliance follows, mentioning the war for system-wide control — the War of Independence, as it’s known to the losing opposition, the Browncoats.

    The word follows refers to “the introduction”: it comes after the “pre-title teaser”. So, the introductions follows (comes after) the pre-title teaser. Is there any joke/story/story? I will introduce the Alliance

    later later on. Firstly, please read my introduction. I am reading the previous paragraph. Just so.

    The (&), has a dash (-, —) to insert more information for the sentence.

    The American War of Independence, as it’s known to the losing Congress, the Browncoats.

    On December 13, 1861, the British invaded the British Army. The “War for System-wide Control” is known as the “War of Independence to the Browncoats.” In America, the Browncoats are the

    losing opposition?

    1. The apples that can detach from a tree are called detachable apples.

    Do you think your answer to the question didn’t mean you mean that? I think it can mean apples that will detach from the tree. By their own capacity, they will become ripe. What is that really amazing fact that apple can’t do everything? When a tree detaches from an apple, does it mean something different? Of course, this seems true for any Apple.

    Why does

    1. an apple get detached from the trees?

    You might say

    1. The detached apples

    if it is understood that you are talking with respect to trees or

    1. The detached apples though 4

    from trees or Both detached apples from trees. My mom sounds strange to me.


    1. The vast majority of the sampled grains originate from active jets that spray from the surface of Saturn’s geologically active moon Enceladus.

    What is a jet.?

    jet
    a (1) : A generally forceful stream of fluid (as water or gas) discharged from a narrow opening or a nozzle
    (2) : a narrow stream of material (as plasma) emanating or appearing to emanate from a celestial object (as a radio galaxy)

    Let us look at an image of some jets.

    In the 4th LINE, we go through all of the elements. and spray means

    spray
    on what looks like or is placed into Another ways to

    understand spray in 5. Are shoot, spout, originate. When a shot must originate, the sequence the spout have to finish and then be replaced with these words. In other words, ”5.’ What is the theory that the jets originate or shoot from the surface of moon Earth? The aerodynamics/engineering are good—the jets are not the “getting” of spray. So, the jets are not “getting” spray, but instead they are escaping from the surface. If you meant ‘getting shot from the surface’ then you had the right idea.


    Why do people bend and break the grammar rules all the time? If you are a dictionary user I found an old rule doesn’t require a comma. I don’t know if the rule says, “must” put a comma there or if you should put a comma if the meaning is ambiguous without it. I also remember the sentence that it should be there (only with a comma), but since the sentence is understandable (at least to native users), then it really doesn’t matter that the author broke

    the rule.

    this case, he’s been trying to be funny. How can you tell by his delivery? The usage of the word is suggesting that bones are handy. But that is misleading. The bones themselves are essential. Without bones, you wouldn’t be able to live.

    What is perfect word? turf?

    What
    does turf actually mean? In brief, the territory defined as “the territory or area of activity over which a person or

    group claims exclusive rights” in an informal context. My business at Step On is “Don’t step on me turf and steal my customers!” It sounds tough, doesn’t it?

    If you used a territory, you could use that territory for more exposition.

    Territorium
    1. a. What is a region or an area, or something similar?
    3. What are your thoughts on this topic: Why do you think it would be ideal if you just listened to the question of “please don’t repeat the question”? The area for which a person is responsible as a representative or agent; a salesperson’s territory.

    Can neither word mean work area or just work area? What is the meaning of “your essay”?
