Lesson 385

occur = there is / are

inn = bar / restaurant / pub

cart = carriage = car

get on with work = advance with work
= how well the work goes on

the writing = to write

He is far away from me.
= He is in a distance from me.
= There is space between me and him.

6) And

Can you imagine a sentence in which the word “and” occurs five times without any words in between? There is one at the end of this story. There was once an inn called "The Horse and the Cart". Outside was a sign with a picture of a horse carriage. But the sign had got very old. So the owner of the inn decided to have a new one made. He went to a painter and asked him to paint one and write "HORSE AND CART" in large letters on it. A few days later, he went to see how the painter was getting on. He liked the picture of the horse and the carriage very much, but he didn't like the writing at all. He said to the painter: "No, no, there is too much space between" horse "and" and "and" and "and" cart ".
