'a' is not conjoined with the word 'lot' as in whole. so therefore it is wrote "a lot". Is this true?

...lose. I cannot even remember how many times I've seen it spelled "loose". The main reason I have asked this question is because misery loves company. Now that I have pointed it out, if you haven't already noticed, you will now.

Why a word has more than one meaning?

Is it due to the reason that there is/was scarcity of words?

Were the same words invented by different people at different places but later they came to know that particular word already existed, and thus there were so many meaning for the same words?

Or there are some other causes behind it?

What exactly is the grammatical fault, in that sentence? It should be "How much fun is that?", but the first one is more and more acceptable these days. We don't say "How money do you have?, at least not yet."

I saw this on a license plate and couldn't figure it out. Is this a common acronym or a phrase or what?

If I'm asked to annotate something, like an excerpt from a poem, a random document, or whatever, what does that exactly mean?

I never really saw the necessity of it, since I've felt it wastes time, especially if it's on a timed exam, and I'm trying to understand the meaning of the document in the first place.

But if I'm required to do it, what do I do exactly? Do I define words I don't understand, do I circle words which grab my attention, showing the intensity of a phrase or something?

I'm sorry, but I don't see the point of wasting my time to find words with a similar theme, and finding some kind of imagery, when I don't even know what the story is about.

Who thought of 'swear words'?
Who, one day, decided that words like f*ck and sh*t would be concidered rude and naughty words?
How is bi*ch any different from hello? [apart from obvious spelling differences].
And why are some 'swear words' concidered worse than others? For example, saying f*ck would be worse than saying a**. But why?

For example, if I wanted to say "The four most common questions are why did he commit the crime, how did he commit the crime, and how did he know her?"

How would I correctly word that?
