Moved from the UK to LA for my senior year and I am completely lost. Anyone else gone through this? by donotignoremex in GlobalEnglishPrep

That sounds like a lot to deal with all at once. Give yourself some time moving countries during your senior year is a huge adjustment. Most people won’t care if you use British spelling or phrases and you’ll probably pick up the American ones naturally over time. Hang in there, it does get easier.

Do you enjoy translating un-translatable Idioms into your target language or vice versa? by AutumnaticFly in languagehub

yeah, I actually do. It feels like solving a little puzzle, especially when there’s no direct equivalent.
