I understand the meaning of this from the context but I would never figure out to use such phrase. Can someone explain to me in which situations I would use “working something”, for example here is a sentence from a book I’m reading: “And right now, she is working the crowd”

Hi everyone, I,ve been learned about english language but still I do not understand what is the difference betwen As and Like.

I’ve only heard and seen the word “irascible” applied to a person and once used it to describe ones instrument, which I understand because you can anthropomorphize an object. Can you use it to describe a relationship? For example, “our relationship was irascible”, meaning that any small misunderstandings would easily turn into a fight. Or is it that I can’t apply it to a concept because a relationship in itself doesn’t have any qualities? And in this case it’s the person that is “irascible” and causing the fight?

Can someone explain the concept of “patronizing someone” to me? The answers I’ve heard vary greatly and I’m now confused more than ever!

Good evening, how are you doing? I have a question are the police and cops same? How we use them properly? If someone working in police station, how we can say that? He is working as a police offer? Or he is part of cops? Or he is working for police or for cops? Can we say he is police? Or he is cop? I can't get somehow, what would we say if an one of my family works in cops? Or in police Thanks in advance

Can someone explain to me “humbling” as in “humbling experience”. I read the definition but I still don’t understand the meaning. I also heard “humbling privilege”
