How often do you buy a bag of sugar? Bag, box, jar, and spoonful are measure words we use for noncount nouns. What other measure words can you think of? We'll post more later today!  #AmericanEnglish

Hi everyone
Don't you think that in winter pants are the most important piece of clothing and they need to fit just right.

Sour is usually not good, stronger than tart.
Take care of tart, as a noun, it's a... special word. Smile

That's what I was thinking of but with a rather aggressive level of word.

Muriel, did you notice the idiom "to tart oneself up"?

No, the meaning is softer but it may show the goal.
The equivalent in French is just "se pomponner".

You are as curious as a cat! You practice English every day and ask lots of questions on the #AmericanEnglish Facebook page. "As curious as a cat" is an example of a simile. A simile is a comparison between two words using "like" or "as." Tag a friend and give him/her a compliment: "You are as ____ as ____."
