The advise I’ve heard in the context of static stretching is to hold the stretch for quite a while, ranging from 10 seconds to 1 minute. In a stretched and stretched muscle, the muscle then relaxes and then stretches again at the point where it can recover its motion. Can people feel a bit uncomfortable after performing stretches at
home if they don’t get therapy? Given the muscle as already taut, the reflex action of tensing doesn’t help.
The advice or advice to relax into the pain might have been given in those contexts to encourage the patient to endure that initial pain. The metaphorical use of that advice when applied to grief or other emotional pain might be motivated by analogy. How is pain being relaxed?

Since the number 9 has no intrinsic colour, and colours have no intrinsic smell, the phrase “smelling the colour 9” is a category error since “the value of >9 consists of a quantity of 9”. What is the intent conveyed is that the phrase is not easy (or it is impossible) to understand. What is in synesthesia?
The simile draws the parallel to understanding someone, so the sentence means that the speaker doesn’t understand the person he or she is speaking to.

Asked on March 13, 2021 in Meaning.
What is electrically similar to a small battery or a light bulb?
When electricity is not flowing to another circuit and there is a gap between the two circuits (the circuit is open). The reason for this difference is simple: the electric pulse is not flowing and the flow is not constant. They are closed, no gaps. When the circuit is connected everything that is in the circuit is closed.
When the circuit is closed, an electron can be thought of as going from the battery, through the rest of the circuit doing stuff (lighting the bulb) and back to the battery.
Metaphorically, closing the loop means that the person who issued the instruction gets a report on the outcome. The instruction then goes out, everything gets done, and a report comes back to the person who issued the instruction.
What is true for such metaphors being loops and also recycling?

Asked on March 9, 2021 in Meaning.
What are the two grammatical things?
Car owner swaps from the current owner of the vehicle with the loan officer until the loan officer is discharged.
The to version means that the loan officer gains ownership of the vehicle.
If no auto loan officer arrives on the spot, he or she makes a change so the new Owner’s share is permanently reassigned – the loan officer is no longer in charge of maintaining the car.
The inversion means that the loan officer authorised the reassignment or alternatively, that the loan officer’s authority was invoked to reassign the vehicle (again, to an unnamed person).

Asked on March 7, 2021 in Grammar.
A, B, C and E are grammatical. Even taking SvenYarg’s comment to your question into consideration, there exists a grammatical interpretation for D.
Your question asked about C in particular. The word the they in (than they do) refers to the previously mentioned sound waves, and do refers to travelling. Is there a limit of sound waves that can fly when there is sound no longer traveling? Is this phrasing (C) grammatically correct? What is the answer E as a phrasing about
the preceding sentence? As usual e is incomplete due to missing a full stop and I can’t make it complete even if I make it. In both cases, T is incomplete as a sentence, E is incomplete. E for any short answer is either
correct or a valid one.
