Sorry krisi I wanted to explain before but I was at work and couldn't write a longer message.

We use that phrase to summarize things, for example when you want to explain something that is quite long you use "... in a nutshell..." as in "to make a long story short..."

...and the hard outer covering of a nut is a nut shell too, right?. Dixie, I don't think that's the one. Sunnypk used the same word to me when he/she asked me to throw a light in a hut shell. I'm just curious but not a big deal really so never mind...
Thanks again, Dixie.

well krisi no need to be mystified actually Wht have I used is idiom that can everyone be puzzeled to thing over it.

soory it's not hut-shell but it's nut-shell it was just mistyping that I hurriedly typed
Dexie is right
In a nut-shell means to describe anything quite briefly or shortly

I have alot of words like this one if I utilize here that u will hardly understand it.

I hope that u must have concieved my point

Oh really! Nice to know that... It's good to be mystified sometimes. Why not show some more of your mystifying words? :P
Just make it sure that it's comprehensible because for me language (English in particular) is not a tool to show off how many words you know or how knowledgable/intelligent you are but a tool to utilize so as not to be misunderstood... :)

By the way, did you see the reply you were looking for? (I've quoted if for you. Please check at games forum.)

soory for mistaking in spelling

actually I have severe fever anyways oh don't worry I am gonna share definately particular words but I have never exhibited my myself having utilized idioms and phrases, even I know if I use here hardly members will be able to concieve otherwise would that such words are utlized by me.

I am gonna start new thread where we will discuss about idioms and phrases just for you people to make you more knowledgable.

have a fun

but people consider wild goose chase this clish-clash to using idioms and phrases because where am I living there is not much scope of speaking English so I secure less chances to rub shoulder with my friends.
but one thing I must like to narrate that yet I am REPRESENTATIVE in English Learning Center
