Hi Ganesh,
How about using a dictionary? That way you would find out that 'delighted' means happy and 'terrific' means great. Also, you might be interested in learning what SHOUTING means.
Let me know what you think. Thanks, Torsten _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

Dear Teacher This is the first time I know using capital letters is considered to be rude and should be avoided. I got this knowledge by writing quires in capital letters to you. Thank you very much for your advice.
Furthermore I appreciate your prompt reply. Sometime in the dictionary for a word it gives several meaning to one word so we have to select a correct meaning according to the sentence. Is there is any way to find out the suitable meaning according to the sentence? Many thanks
Kind regards Ganesh |

| Yes, that's fine. Is it okay to comment on someone's appearance the first time you meet that person? |
