Oh, easy! As I said before, Kind of and Sort of both have the same meaning just different words to use. "A type of something" Is a term used to describe something. "Calico is a type of cat", "An almond is a type of nut" and "A bi-plane is a type of airplane" You say this to take a complicated word/term and make it easier to understand. like "A term is a type of 'saying'" Hope this helped! I can explain further if you need
The difference between "kind of" and "sort of"? There really is no difference. any situation that you can use one in, you can use the other. "I sort of broke the plate..." and "I kind of broke the plate..." both have the same meaning. I'm not sure where type fits in there or if I got it right at all. Could you use type in a sentence?
