【Preposition, for】Ⅴ

At which expresses its price has a nuance of a point,so it's different from other preposition,for.💰

You should sense next hard sentences immdiately, but how do you feel actually?😁

Example

⑱I wouldn't go bungeeーjumping for anything.

⑲I wouldn't marry him for all the world.

Both sentences have nuance such that I would do nothing about it absolutely,even if I could get something valuable.😤

Example

⑳Are you for or against the plan?

We seem to learn to need a lively imagination from here.Actions of being toward something or going against another one involve metaphor of an approval or objection.Those situations are similar to the Japanese one.It doesn't always mean other expressions are formal.😚

Example

21『Shall we go out for a drink?』『I'm all for it』

It means the person agreed on a suggestion completely.

Example

22 You can't see the wood for the trees.

It means while you can see the trees, you can't see the wood.🌱
