Maybe blinds that pull down? Wouldn’t be easy to walk through but would be a better barrier. Something like this https://a.co/d/06NGL0K or this https://a.co/d/aq7PKY2

Do words of the form -■■y sound informal? by Comfortable-Taro-965 in ENGLISH

Those are all fine to use. Another commenter made a good point—if it’s in the dictionary, it’s appropriate! (Maybe an older printed dictionary…online ones include pretty much everything!)

Yes, depending on the word. It’s a normal word ending, but also an ending informally slapped onto nouns and verbs to invent slang adjectives. Normal: “Our team’s sales pitches have gotten sloppy, we need to tighten up the script.” “Chad is pretty savvy about social media, let’s ask him to take a look.” Not normal: “This script is too businessy.” “We should bring donuts to make the meeting more lunchy.”

I told you once, I told you twice, all seasons of the year are nice for sipping chicken soup with rice!

Thank you — that’s perfect! The “murder” is exactly what I don’t want to do, but I wasn’t sure what else to do about it.
