Drag as in drag queen?
Was listening Summer Nights from Grease and i suddenly listened the word 'drag', i thought i didn't heard correctly so i checked the lyrics..Is it some kind of description or as an actual drag queen? https://preview.redd.it/r2xk35onwobe1.png?width=484&format=png&auto=webp&s=7e69f553edab956795b406415f7707305aa0d289
Why does britney say Break the ice as “Break THE ice” not “Break THEE ice”? Doesn't “The” pronounce “Thee” if the words after it are plural?

Why not use "of" or "in" ?
Why is "to" instead of "of" or "in" here? I feel "to" seems a little bit weird, doesn't it? Source: https://www.foxnews.com/media/vp-harris-mocked-flubbing-opening-line-pledge-allegiance-what-embarrassment
Is "where" suitable here?

Please judge my accent
Although I've been practicing English for quite some time now, I find it extremely difficult to lose my accent. So I'd like to know how thick it sounds to native speakers and whether it's hard to understand what I'm saying in the recording below: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Hz2L2lmuudBtRqOIDvXEBz2MOoqgtgkI/view](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Hz2L2lmuudBtRqOIDvXEBz2MOoqgtgkI/view)

Which part of the world do you think my accent is from?
I'm just curious, a couple years ago I spent so much time and effort working on "minimizing my accent" it was basically more focused on trying to make my pronunciation clearer and easier to understand. Once I reached that goal I stopped trying to actively get rid of my first language's influence on my speech. I focused more on practicing a lot and learning to have good conversations. But now I'm starting to feel a little self-conscious again that my English is too bad for someone who's been learning it for so long. I try to remind myself that it's normal though This is me reading paragraph from a book (I might sound a bit nasally but that's probably because I'm a little sick not an aspect of my accent), I know obviously I sound like a non-native speaker, I wonder if it's easy to pinpoint my native language/ region. https://voca.ro/1hvo4prUw7ZC If you are a native English speaker/someone interested in accents and pronunciation, although I'm aware that I don't sound like I grew up speaking English I can't figure out exactly what my problem areas are. What are the letters /sounds that give it away? It was much easier to work on my weaknesses at the beginning because they were a lot more prominent. This audio might be too short to know all the weaknesses but I appreciate any feedback:)
“Get off of me” vs “get off me”
I assume both mean same but which sounds more natural or correct?
