Do Native Speakers Ever Use These Rare English Words?
Hi! I’d like to ask native English speakers, do you actually use words like perspicacious, perspicuous, propitiatory, lachrymose, propinquity, or sacrosanctity in your daily life? I’m an English major, so I have to memorize a lot of vocabulary, but I find these kinds of words really hard to retain. They don’t seem to appear very often in magazines, books, or other common texts either. Do you have any advice on how to remember such rare words effectively? Thank you in advance!

Would you say that phrase "a couple of years ago" refers to exactly 2 years?
I always thought that people mean small undefined number when they use this phrase. But apparently it refers to exactly 2 years. Is that how most people use this phrase?

What will you fill the blank?

Why is the answer to Question 20 not “A”?
I thought he is fast because he was running?

someone please explain this to me😭
this is the second time i've made this exact same mistake before but like i don't get it, why is it "are having"?

Does this handwriting look readable to you? Because I would’ve barely understood a word if I didn’t know the context. And still I can barely read a half of it
