(1) i think it's traditionally "on a page" but then what if we are talking about electronic pages for web sites? do we use "on" or "in?"

for example:
"how many words are on this web page?"
"how many words are in this web page?"
or both works?

(2) another question: how about for web sites?
do we say "in a web site" or "on a web site?"

My English teacher asked us to make up a story by using the phrase "get in someone's hair". I've never heard of this one. So can you please tell me what does it mean?

Thank you so much!

I'm 15 years old and I'm writing a speech, or a "talk" called Sacred Scripture.

I have a rough draft written, but I have never really given a speech or talk before other than school reports that are required. This is for a church retreat.

What makes a good speech/talk?

They need to be under about 20 characters, but I can abbreviate some words.

I already have "The sun will come out tomorrow" (sun'll come out tmw) and "Tomorrow there'll be sun".

Can you tell me whether i have to use "shows" or "show" in these sentences below and why.

the national museum is now displaying a collection of ancient bones that < > the link between man and animals.

what should i use singular form or plural form if i use " a variety of"


I'm wondering because i was taught to use plural form in the case of using "a number of something" but to use singular form in the case of the number of something

ex : a number of students driving are increasing
the number of students driving is less than before..
