The expression "to be short of/on" Hello everyone! Today, I'm trying to learn the expression "to be short of/on". Could you tell me the list of sentences below makes any sense? 1. I'm short of money right now, so I can't lend you some. 2. You're too short of time to get the airport. You won't be there on time. 3. He's short of experience, so that to get a job. 4. She's short of love. That's the reason why she has sex with everyone. 5. We're short of fun and we're having a party tomorrow. 6. They're short of polite. They shouldn't use so many cursing words. 7. I'm short of imagination in order to draw something really weird. Thank you! :)

1. I'm short of money right now, so I can't lend you some. Yes correct 2. You're too short of time to get the airport. You won't be there on time. Yes but short on time would sound better 3. He's short of experience, so that to get a job. Correct 4. She's short of love. That's the reason why she has sex with everyone. Incorrect. I don't think we say "short of love" 5. We're short of fun and we're having a party tomorrow. Doesn't sound correct. Not idiomatic.You would say "we need some fun" 6. They're short of polite. They shouldn't use so many cursing words. Impossible. You need a noun after short of. Polite is adjective. 7. I'm short of imagination in order to draw something really weird. Correct.
