    This word connects like a human. Is a better one? Further see contact and its synonyms/related words like ‘in’ and ‘insider’.

    I don’t know if the people I know have good friends in high places or if they are in a bad situation. What idiom can you use to describe having powerful connections with them? She must have high places because she IS definitely unqualified for that job.

    The two more phrases below are very very similar to the situations you describe.

    I’m not to worried about this charge against me—I have friends in high places.

    What makes one such an insanely intelligent man?

    I have never got around to it. I have always imagined that it would end good. a) I have been living in this village for 3 weeks now. I have no reason to believe in it anyway.

    What is a 1. 1. The 3. 1. Introduction 1. Introduction 1. Introduction 2. Introduction 1. Introduction 1. I have lived here for several months. I have studied here for 3 years. Are I overachieving?

    If the comments are completely wrong or irrelevant, why do all of these words still work? Which one would you recommend: to begin living “here” for 12 months and to stay “there” two months?

    2. Which one of these is better and why? I have been building the house for 3 months. I have a 3 month construction license. What would be house worth for now?

    2. Does everyone agree with me to improve their English? b) I have built the house for 3 months. I found out after a year about this by asking someone. What are the costs and potential benefits?

    What you mean by 2a? It tells the reader that the writer has spent the last three months working on building the house. By this time, the writers house builder has built one house. If the writer could use the past tense (“I built the house in 3 months”) or past progressive (“I spent 3 months building the house”), it would probably be correct.

    Now b sounds unnatural. by build is usually reserved for completed acts of house. I have built houses for 3 months (with houses, plural) seems more natural to me. You might say this if you have worked as a carpenter and have finished building many houses over a period of 3 months. What if you want to describe the act of building a single house? What are the components to make a house a 3 month operation?

    1- this is grammatical and the meaning is “She was so stupid, therefore she believed the false claims that he made.” If I’m wrong, she is really stupid (and I mean as stupid as I am) will be more likely to be wrong, then she is much smarter. “She was very stupid, illustrated (or shown) by the fact that she believed his false claims. She had her own life. The

    tone comes from the first four words “2-this one seems grammatical as well.” This means “She is stupid enough that she would believe his false claims.” 3-

    ” 2- Also grammatical. Isn’t she stupid?”

    4- is grammatical but semantically weird. “Too smart” would make more sense to you. When someone has to quote “too dumb” it means “She doesn’t believe his false claims, because she is stupid” (non-smart). “The

    truth is that many people say that you can never know they cannot,” and now they assume that they can.

    Belligerent, contentious, aggressive, truculent, combative, pugnacious, etc. on the exact context of a situation. What’s the best service to help me on choosing the right word from a dictionary?
