Is there such animal that’s called ‘joy’?
I’ve encountered a T-shirt that my friend has which has lots of different animal footprints in the back. I got them all but that ‘joy’. It seems to belong to a feline of sorts. Or is it a short form of something? Seeking help
Is this “cunt hair tight”?

Usage of "the wife" when talking about a spouse
I see that quite often on Reddit, no idea if it's common anywhere else or not. A man is explaining something that happens in his life and he refers to his spouse as "the wife", for instance "I did that and then the wife said". When I read that, it automatically comes out as really pejorative, am I right or wrong in my assumption ? In French I've never heard it used that way and it would sound awful and demeaning but that kind of expressions and usages are often hard to directly translate.
Why "Got lost" is the answer here?
The first thing I thought about was "She often gets lost". "She often got lost", seems wrong for me even though I am not a native speaker, Can someone tell me the right answer?
Does this sound correct? “What do you do with the food you cannot finish in a restaurant?” “I would get them to go.””I would take them to go.”
Thank you!
Shouldn't this be 'thought'?

How do i improve my accent?
not sure if this is the right flair or the right sub for it but I have a very typical Indian accent whenever i speak in English, i have tried videos and some apps to try and mimic what they say but i can only do that for words, i keep failing whenever i have to speak in sentences. for example, i can say *bo'ohw'o'wo'er* but when i have to speak a sentence, it automatically becomes "bottle of water"
"Do" is difficult for me.
I sometimes get confused when I study English. In the example sentence "You can speak English"If you are asked to make this sentence a question,It will be"Can you speak English?" This is easy to understand because you can see "can". But if you use "You speak English" as a question, "Do you speak English?" right?I don't know because there is no "do" in "You speak English". " Are "You do speak English" and "do" really in the sentence? Does that mean it's abbreviated? Learning a language is very interesting.
What’s the joke here? Why would an electrician strip?
