  • Is this The migration of the oracle as a

    native English speaker?

    I pictured a horse-drawn carriage with an elderly person dressed in flowing tattered clothes and an old knotted branch as a walking cane. Having been kicked out of their previous town for making too many false predictions, this oracle began to migrate to find a more receptive audience.

  • If my comment does not have context, why does Quora have some suggestions?

    Have you been waiting for a long time? “, the subtle stress is placed upon got, just like you determined.

    Whilst word stress can introduce meaning to a sentence when the emphasis is not so subtle, the sentence needs to be more descriptive and long. How can I clarify and enhance the words in a sentence?

    You and your sister just got here.
    What are you saying to yourself: I just got here.
    My sister did not just get here. subtext : My sister didn’t just get here.

    Have you spoken to anyone here?
    How do I just got here?
    I haven’t had time to talk to everyone because I have only just arrived.

    I need you to go to the store, you cried, because I now need you.
    Me: I just got here.
    I spent my time here and would like to keep here for a while still. I’m interested in sharing as per you. Subtext : I need to keep here.

    Most of the competitors have almost finished the race.
    Me: I just got here.
    Subtext: I’m not progressing as quickly as I would like. I have many reasons for this.

    No two stress references are alike. What does ‘second’ mean exactly? Stress on just will be interpreted as a more emphatic complaint than stress on got.

    From your context that you have provided, it is likely that a person is genuinely appreciative. The reason “learning” is quoted is probable because the author feels they aren’t actually learning and feel embarrassed.
