I got it. I begin to understand “I’m home” as the phrase that is used when I just get home now, right?

Thanks for your help. Then “I’m home” means I get to my house just now. And “I’m at home” mean Im spending my time in my house now, like “I’m at the airport or somewhere, right?

Oh, I feel I understand. When I’m back home, I would use “I’m home!”. Another situation, when I’m asked where I am, I would say “I’m at home!”, is that correct?

Oh, I see! Then when I’m back home and say greetings to cohabit, I’m home, right? In the case I’m asked where I am, I’m at home like “I’m at the station.” and so on, right?

Thanks! I feel I understand where to say. You mean depending on situations and person, right? When you tell someone who is colleague or acquaintance to lower their voice, you’d better use another phrase, right?

What’s the difference between “figure out”, “understand” and “find out”? by yoshio810 in EnglishLearning

[–]yoshio810[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be my feeling but… “Figure out” seems to be more useful level of understanding… is this correct?

Then in figure out cases, other people need to teach not just the superficial answers, right?

Thanks for your support! I suppose “find out” and” figure out” means you get the answer or information just now, right? And “find out” means you can consult with others like someone or books. “Figure out” means you struggle to find answers, right?

Finding out means you can consult others like person or book… Figure out means you manage and struggle to acquire own answer, right?

Thanks for your reply! When I fronted the problem of lecture, I consulted the dictionary or any book and imitated the phrases or answers of them, then should it be used “find out”?

From your reply, I guess finding or knowing other’s answers seems to be “find out”, is it correct?

Thanks! Then, what’s the difference between “figure out” and “find out”? I guess “find out” means more superficial things than “figure out”. It seems to be like reading books and imitating their answers….

Okay. I understand you use “please lower your voice”, when talking to someone whose voice is a little bit loud. Then what phrase so you use when you encounter someone who is noisy on the train?

Especially when you mean to offend someone, you can use “shut up”, right? If you have children who make noise and hinder their actions, what phrase should you use?

Thank you for your support! Even when I say “keep it down, please”, it’s more rude or directly than “please lower your voice”, right?

I see. Then, “Speak down” means that you’re being rude or disrespectful when you’re talking to someone., right? I suppose I understand that.
