Weird/difficult formulation
Hi, There are two parts of this (long) sentence I am struggling with (both highlighted). The first part, I simply don’t understand anything. About the second one, I ve never seen « wont » used liked that. Is it linked to « will not »? It seems completely different. Or is it something like « want »? Thanks for your help!
i don’t understand why
Rn, I’m doubting my English. I mean, I’ve been learning English for about one or two years. I really want to reach C2 level because I want to live in London. But for now, I’m at B2. Sometimes I read texts or messages on Reddit or anywhere, and I struggle to understand them. It makes me feel bad, like I’m not making progress. I’m giving everything to English, even at the expense of other languages, even my native language, lol. I’m not learning any other language, I’m really focused on English. But still, I don’t know… I just don’t understand these days..
What's the third blank?
At first I thought it would be communication but that's number six, I think.
Why I'd instead of I've?

What does "Go Figure!" mean?
From what I understand that there are two different meanings. 1. Used sarcastically for something obvious. (Kind of like saying no sh\*t bruh). Example: Person A: The sky is blue. Person B: Go figure! 2. Something that's hard to understand. Example: Despite the dish not having any flavor, it still tasted good. Am I right or am I missing something? Which one is more used? TIA!
Son of a *beeeep*! Hey newbies, don't you tell me you knew this already, because I didn't :D Pardon for the language lol ! (found this at grammarly)

what's the difference between "silly" and "dumb"
hi english is not my first language. if i want to say "i feel silly/dumb waiting for you", what do you say? or do you say "foolish" instead?
Business days...
excuse my wording, but what the f*ck are they? I've heard that monday to friday are business days- but then what about 6 business days, do u just gloss over the weekend, or do you make saturday and sunday business days when their turn is up? Like for example: "honey i'll be gone for 8 business days, have fun!" how long are those 8 "business" days context: i am not native, yet i have a c1 level of education with a high vocab in english (including the term business days), but of some choice things i am just completely unaware of the meaning
Couldn't agree more! 😂
