What does mean saying "the nail was lodged in between his toes"? This ia the whole passage. Conversely, a man in Britain jumped off scaffolding and impaled his foot on a large nail. His pain was immediate and severe enough that it required intravenous sedation and pain medication. However, when his boot was removed, the nail was lodged in between his toes and had not injured him. (Reference: Minerva. British Medical Journal. 1995, 310: 70.) His pain was caused by the brain activating a powerful danger/alarm signal. Thank you

Are there any mistakes in these sentences^^ I saw this on a package of AAA brand ( which i won't mention) I feel that there are some mistakes in those sentences below. " AAA selected "whole grain brown rice" from organic farmer community. Whole grain still has germ and bran which is rich of vitamin and various natural elements. Mushroom and carrot are in congee for fulfill benefit, adjust flavor by sauce powder sachet inside the package. Let's take care the world....Let's support organic. " I just want to know if there are some mistakes so, i can learn from them. Since i'm not a native English speaker, i can't point out exactly how they are wrong. Could anyone help me here? Thank you ^^These are what i think. Please, tell me if i am wrong^^ 1.AAA selected "whole grain brown rice" from organic farmer community. -selected -> selects -organic farmer community-> organic farming community 2.Whole grain still has germ and bran which is rich of vitamin and various natural elements. -which is->which are -vitamin-> vitamins/ 3. Mushroom and carrot are in congee for fulfill benefit, adjust flavor by sauce powder sachet inside the package. - fulfill benefit ->fulfilling benefit -Adjust favor-> i don't know??? -,adjust flavor by sauce powder sachet inside the package. I think this is an independent clause. "and" should be added before adjust... or maybeseperate 3. into 2 sentences ->Mushroom____. Adjust____. 4. Let's take care the world....Let's support organic. " Let's take care the world ->Let's take care of the world. -sopport organic-> Isn't organic an adj. ?

A quick questions about the structure of a sentence Here is the sentence that confused me..... Over the last couple years, a plethora of research has been pouring in that makes connections between Facebook and narcissism. I'm wondering which part of the sentence is the subject and which part is the predicate? This is what i think Subject : a plethora of research predicate: has been pouring in that makes connections between Facebook and narcissis. the next problem is what the word "that" in the sentence refers to ??? Thank you you, guys

Could anyone explain "as false as the Kardashians' lashes" and "pin the tail on" to me, please? I read an article about Social Media and Narcissism by Lisa Firestone. I have 2 questions to ask you, guys. Here are some parts of the article. Studies are now showing what many of you may have suspected: We are living in anincreasingly narcissistic society.In a world where prime-time television is dominated by a "reality" as false as the Kardashians' lashes, ........................................ So who's to blame for this generational increase in narcissism? Can we pin the tail on Mark Zuckerberg and the advent of Facebook? Over the last couple years, a plethora of research has been pouring in that makes connections between Facebook and narcissism. .................................... What I don’t understand are 1. …as false as the Kardashians' lashes… -->what does it mean? 2. pin the tail on.. --> What does it mean? Thank you so much Kay

Could anyone explain me this sentence? An alternative adopted froma widely used practice within Myanmar, is to use an unincorporated joint venture under which a local land right holder gives a foreign investor (who sets up a Myanmar-registered company) the right to build a construction and rent or sell units in return for the use of the land right. What i don't understand is..."and rent or sell units in return for the use of the land right." Thank you
