@HDGD 1. “He’s not squeamish when it comes to blood.”
2. “My shirt now has a blemish, because he squirt ketchup on it.”
3. “Stop squirming around and let me put this shirt on you.”

@whoknowsdiamond thanks but isn't squeamish a verb?
- Spanish (Spain)
@whoknowsdiamond also is blemish the same as stain?
- English (US)
1. He doesn’t get squeamish when he sees blood.
(Squeamish is an adjective, not a verb)
2. He stained my shirt with ketchup.
or
He spilled ketchup on my shirt.
(“Blemish” and “stain” don’t mean the same thing. They do seem kind of similar, but they’re usually used in different situations)
“Stain” is used when liquid, food, or things like makeup or ink seep into some kind of material.
“Blemish” is used when something ruins the appearance of something else on a surface level. There’s no liquid, food, etc. involved because blemishes are usually caused by something being handled too roughly. “Blemish” can also be used figuratively to mean that something harms someone’s reputation.
3. Don’t squirm. Let me put the shirt on you.

@whoknowsdiamond@bsloan7 I am so confused right now
is it "he doesn't get squeamish" OR "he's not squeamish."
is it "he doesn't get squeamish" OR "he's not squeamish."
- Spanish (Spain)
@whoknowsdiamond@bsloan7 also one person says that stain and blemish are the same and the other person says that is not the same.
now I appreciate@bsloan7. because u gave me an explanation but@whoknowsdiamond. said that is the same and I believe that she's an English speaker.
so do people speak English how ever they want???
