[quote author=~Bluetooth]This guy is a mo'R'on. . . . .You only gave me the synonyms of a phrase verb which doesn't dispute its main usage. Its just like saying " Take to' which means to give up a habit. The source which is the verb cannot be modified to "took to" or "taken to ". Same with this tune up as it will always remain tune up.

Stop embarassing yourself ![/quote]I'm done schooling you.

I don't engage in name calling.

You are not always right.

Just accept it.
Bye.

[quote author=~Bluetooth]I didn't know you even replied me but let me embarass you a little bit.

"Tune up" is a phrasal verb and can only be used when referencing a musical instrument or frequency of a radio or television, so your usage up there with reference to understanding is utter bullshiit because you can't give another meaning to phrase verb just like idioms too ![/quote]According to Michael West dictionary?
Please, you can do better.

[quote author=daz_york]It is actually "advice" with a "c" when in noun form, not "advise" which is a verb.

Kudos to the minister for setting up the Lab in Abuja.
The report would have taken more time.

Now is Stella guilty or not?
I don't think so.

No need to get worked up.
It has nothing to do with bigotry.

jullary: My wife is from AKWA-IBOM, she doesn't understand yoruba! And am from OGUN-STATE! I don't understand her language so the only way we can comunicate is english so my children don't understand yoruba. What about that
Try and speak Yoruba to them irrespective, they will understand.
I have a friend, the father is Igbo the mother is Hungarian.
He and all his siblings can speak Igbo and Hungarian fluently,as well as English.
Their parents spoke their respective languages to them.
This helped the mum to learn Igbo and the dad to learn Hungarian.
Politics › Mountain Of Fire And Miracles In Enugu Demolished. by eaglechild(op): 4:19pm On Oct 10, 2013
The mountain of fire and miracles ministry Enugu main branch is undergoing demolition.
The building is said to be located very close to a water way and drainage and will hamper the ongoing construction of a dual carriage bridge at Zik's Avenue.

Several notices have been allegedly served to them, by the state government, but they were apparently unheeded.
Clarification is needed by church members on the reason for not relocating.

Since when did pe*nis and va*gina and bre*asts become vulgar words.
They are body parts.

You losers are obviously smoking some cheap and headache inducing igbo...
Lagos is not SW.

Go back to the rain forests of Ekiti.

Written in read, blood red, almost symbolic.
As if the mods are threatening to make you bleed, if you default.

Anyway, I advocate that the gvt should completely, withdraw all forms of financial assistance given to pilgrims of any religion.
