does ,,make my mind up'' mean the same as,,make up my mind''? thanks

[Maple_Leaf]

make up one's mind = to decide ?

[Alan]

Hi Maple Leaf,

Yes, it means 'decide' and suggests it is a process of reaching a decision/coming to a decision.

Hello Baktygul,
Nice to hear you. My name is Lina. I hope this reply finds you well. I'll try to help you out. Since we are both the same as learners, may be I make some mistakes. With that, the discussion will start. Expression is a noun. 1. Expression of feeling, e.g. I cry as a sad expression when I have to say good bye to the one who I love. 2. Formula that used in mathematics, e.g. A mathematical expression for rectangular perimeter is width plus length, and rectangular area is width multiply by length. 3. Expression is the act of forcing something out by squeezing or pressing, e.g. Because I have to work, the expression of the milk from my breast to my baby's bottles in the morning is important. What are your thoughts?

Instead of "I just can't make my mind up ; Can I write :"I can't make my mind up".Please explain it clearly.

[Alan]

Hi,

By adding 'just' you are emphasizing the impossibility/difficulty when it comes to making a decision. 'Just' here could mean the same as 'simply'.
