Why is it "He is Risen"?
Should it not be "He has risen"? Sounds weird to me. (Reposted to remove names)
What’s your go-to phrase for sounding polite but still being a little sarcastic?
Mine is: ‘Thank you for your request. You know how much we value your opinion. We’ll give it the consideration it deserves.’
Can I say it?
Can I say "It's so pleasant" instead of thank you when people wish me happy birthday?
A few question about English

Dear natives, which show sounds decent to improve speaking? (For non-native speakers)
1) Simpsons 2) Adventure time 3) Family guy 4) Other recommendation from you 5) Friends It would be so much helpful for me if you answer Ps. Does people use ‘i’m on the level’ as ‘i’m being honest’ irl? I learned this phrase from Simpson and dared to use once to my american friend. And he asked me ‘what does that mean?‘. It made me feel embarrassed

What’s the British equivalent of “Friends”?
I want to improve my British English, so I’m looking for a british series with plenty of everyday language — kind of like “Friends”— with some slang and natural, casual speech. I don’t mind which part of England the accent is from, as long as it’s interesting. Oh, and maybe some recommendations for reality shows would help too!
Why is it "were" and not "was"? I thought days are singular?
