Hello. I got another question. Could you help me!?
Hello. Do you enjoy your day? If yes, glad to hear that. Anyways while reading a book to my sister, I found a suspicious sentence whether it is right or not.
"That Marylou is some poet." from the book, Slugs in Love.
Yeah. She wrote some poems for her love but in this situation where a slug found one of her poem and said, it should have been "a poet" or "a good poet" or something like "That Marylou has some poet (ability)" not is. Could you explain me why the author wrote the sentence like that? Thank you so much beforehand. Have a great one!

Hello could you help me please?
Hello
By another confusing preposition problem, I am stuck. The example is :
The little child counted eight on his fingers.
I think one should have used with or by(for imbuing the meaning of a tool) not on.
I know count verb is usually followed by the preposition on like for instance, I count on you which is a different usage of count in the former one so I am wondering why one used that proposition.
Please help me out of this problem.
Thank you in advance. Have a good one!😊

What does it mean? Could you help me please?
Hello, I read a book named the book thief.
In chapter 3 of this book, there is a sentence that makes me confused.
The mayor's wife bruised herself again.
I don't think literally she made a bruise on herself. However after searching for the definition of bruise, nothing is different from what I've known already about what bruise means.
So, I need your help if you don't mind please, share your knowledge of English.
What does that mean?
Thank you for reading and answering in advance. Have a good one!

Hello. I cannot handle this problem.
Hello. I am coming with a preposition problem again. It makes me confused a lot. Thank you for reading in advance.
2. How did you manage to —————— of that snob?
a) get over
b) get rid of
c) get off
d) get round
However now it includes not only asking which preposition is proper but also asking about 'of noun form'. Actually it is also a preposition problem as I think. I learned that of noun is equal to adjective. For example, of beauty is equal to beautiful. Then with that logic, of that snob is equal to snobbish as far as I understand. Then it doesn't make sense. How can I solve this problem? I have intuition about thinking like preposition of is quite like.. denoting parts of something. I don't know what I am talking about. Prepositions are killing me. In a nutshell, how can I solve the number 2 problem understanding prepositions well?
Phew.. I appreciate it so much whether you know the answer or not. Have a good one and good luck to you!

Hello, could you help me please?
Hello, thank you for reading in advance.
Again, I am stuck into prepositions problem.
I am harsh on her - familiar to me
I am harsh to her
I am (doing) harsh at her
(I think for is improper because it is usually used like this, I give a present for her. Am I right?:))
which one is more natural and why? If the answer is not only one, please let me see some examples for each preposition if you don't mind. And the synonym of harsh such as trenchant, mordant and stuff, can be under this rule by which harsh should be used.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and answering my question! Have a good one!

Hello. Could you help me? I got stuck into a problem.
Hello, how are you doing?
While studying, I found a problem which I couldn't figure out. Let me give you specific examples. I made these sentences : She is on my mind, she is of my mind, and she is with my mind. After that, I proofread these and I felt confused about what the exact meaning of each sentence is. Whether you could help or not, I would feel grateful for your reading. Thanks again.
Have a nice day!

Hello, could you please help me?
Hi, how are you?
While studying, I'd had a question. What is the difference between 'I care you.' and 'I care about you.'?
In my opinion, I know the latter is more natural but I have no idea about why 'I care you' is wrong.
Likewise, these kinds of preposition problems bother me everyday.
Thank you for your reading whether you would answer or not.
Have a good day!
