How to get interested in English
I'm trying to study English, but always failed, what can I do for that?
size of animal shit
In English, we often compare something to animal shit to insult it, but is there a grammatical distinction between dog shit, horse shit, and bull shit etc.? Can we create new abusive expressions based on those ? for example, rabbit poop or elephant poop?

Is it common to use “thineselves” to say “yourselves”?
I saw someone saying “you best prepare thineselves” and I’ve never seen that term before.

why “was” instead of “were”
the poster is native so he must be right, but I don't understand why when describing subjunctive things
How to know the meaning of a word without translating it?
I've been learning English for many months now and I think I know 95% of the words, but when I find a new word, I still find it annoying to have to open the translator and figure it out. Is there any way to know the meaning of a word without having to translate it?
Never use 'to' after (Request/Recommend/Insist/Suggest/Dare/Demand)?
I am starting to notice a trend where native speakers avoid using 'verb+someone+to'' structure after certain verbs. Specifically, I hear 'I suggest (that) you do it' instead of 'I suggest you to do it'. 'I recommended (that) he go' instead of 'I recommended him to go'. 'I demand (that) he leave' instead of 'I demand him to leave'. 'How dare he speak to me like that' 'I request (that) you disappear' instead of 'I request you to disappear'. So always use 'that + he/she/they/it + base form of verb' after these verbs? Am I on the right track?
Which one sound sounds more natural in speaking?
"I’ve left my laptop for repair, so I can’t do anything right now." "My laptop is being repaired, so I can’t do anything right now." If there is a more natural way to say this, let me know!
