stranger vs. foreigner
Last week I was in Ireland. On my way home I met a two people giving out election leaflets.
Since I am not Irish, I was like: Sorry guys, I am not local. I am a stranger. :)
However, they told me: You are not a stranger. You are a foreigner! :D :D :D
It made me really think if there is any difference between stranger and foreigner in English.
Thanks for your commnets

concrete vs. specific... is it really the same?
Hello guys,
Do you think it is ok to say: I don't have any concrete plans for the weekend???
Personally I would change the word concrete for specific since I would define concrete rather as a type of material.
Am I right though?
Thanks for your advice

How do you say it guys?
Hello everyone,
let me ask you for some advice. In English language there is a phrase on the one hand/on the other hand. BUT!!!
1) Can you say on the one side/ on the other side instead?
2) Is it even possible to say on the one hand side/ on the other hand side?
