Is my English good enough? Be honest

I want to start creating content on social media in the opinion niche about the US because I love America. I’m from Spain, Europe so I don’t know if I should do the content in English (with my accent) or in Spanish (my native language). This is how my voice sounds in English: https://voca.ro/1124jW041LnB

What does 'Dipper' mean here?

What does 'Dipper' mean here?

I just began this book and already got stuck on the first page. I assumed at first it meant something like 'laddle', related to 'dipping' but it starts with capital D so idk. Thanks in advance

"Not gonna fly" in the Present Tense?

Can this idiom - it's not going to fly - ever be used in the Present Tense? For example in a silly rhyme like this: *He bakes a pie,* *Pie in the sky.* *It doesn't fly.* *He starts to cry.* Is it correct to use it here in the sense that an inexperienced but overconfident someone bakes an awful pie that doesn't win a prize in a baking competition? Is it gonna fly?

Can “partial to” and “vulnerable to” mean the same thing?

I’m writing an essay, and if I said “his insecurities made him partial to her lies” is that the same as saying “his insecurities made him vulnerable to her lies”?

Is any of them incorrect? If so, why?

I was watching this TV show called The Sopranos. Why does Tony called his uncle "Junior" when obviously he is younger than his uncle?

Do British people use phrasal verbs more often than Americans?

I've noticed that when I read novels by British authors, I come across more phrasal verbs than in American ones.
