Hi #16 (permalink) Thu Oct 13, 2011 7:36 am   Hi
 

I am confused that why should we use negative adjectives in a positive sentence ?! In my view all of those are wrong for this case !!
regards,

Naughty would be like "demonic" or having "shenanigans".

Dear Mr.Alan/Toersten,
Maybe in learning idioms we don't need really understand their meaning, isn't that right? because some expression are really absurd to understand, and have the opposite meaning. Example: ''break a leg vs good luck'', ''you're very naughty vs you're very kind.''


For this reason I have wrote a list of that idioms that I don't know, in order to review and learn them. All these Responses tests have been very useful.
