Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "I"
The meaning of "I" in various phrases and sentences
Q:
What does The more I think about it mean?
A:
The reason, 'the more' can be added is because it creates both depth and explanation. I could simply say, "I think about something," but when I say, "the more I think about something," it means that I can't get what I'm thinking about out of my mind. Almost like it's bothering me.
Q:
What does Sorry I am late kkk mean?

"kkk" is Korean, it's like "jaja" in Spanish or "haha" in English.

Q:
What does I've heard all I care to from you mean?
A:
It's kind of like "I've had enough," or "I don't want to hear any more from you," "Or no discussion." It's a bit more formal, kind of the tone that a mother would use with her children if they've done something very wrong.
Q:
What does I'm sure I'll know enough but you never know. mean?
