Can I say "from March to end-June" to mean "from march to the end of June"? just like you say "from March to mid June"

Do native speakers still say "the" and "a" word
I just think that these words are unnecessary when I watch videos, anime, or movies especially in infromal conversation
Does "straight shooter" make sense in this context? about to get it tattooed on my wrist
I'm not sure where I've heard this definition, but the way I thought of it is that a straight shooter is someone who's highly motivated to accomplish something. the idea behind it is someone wanting something so badly and being about to pull the trigger. I'm someone who's highly obsessed with self-improvement and I'd love to get it tattooed on me. before I make any mistakes, is this interpretation correct?
What does “cooked” mean?
Hello everyone! Lately I often hear this word and I don’t know what does it mean. For example I watched caseoh and he said “we are cooked him” and I don’t know what does it mean. English isn’t my first language so can you explain the meaning of this phrase and word?
5 Things I learned about English from 2 weeks on Reddit
Hey everyone! 👋 I’ve been using Reddit for the past two weeks to improve my English, and here’s what I’ve discovered: 1. Context Beats Grammar Rules✍️ Native speakers don’t always stick to perfect grammar - what matters is how natural it sounds. 2. Slang Is Everywhere 🗣️ Phrases like “spill the tea” ☕ or “hot take” 🔥 seemed confusing at first, but context helped me figure them out. 3. Tone Changes Everything 🤔😅 The same sentence can feel friendly or sarcastic depending on punctuation, emojis, or subreddit vibe. 4. Mistakes Are Okay ✅ Even when my grammar wasn’t perfect, people were kind and focused on understanding me. 5. It’s Like Language Immersion🌍 Reddit exposes you to real, everyday English that’s impossible to learn from a textbook. Anyone else using Reddit to practice English? Share your experience! 😊
Why "Story Rich" and not "Rich Story"?

For native speakers, is the word huzz a bad word or just another way to say hottie

From Cambridge dictionary. The latter example doesn’t make sense to me
To me the simple statement “none” sounds very unambiguous, contrary to the definition of “equivocally” above. I feel like my english got pretty decent in the last couple of years and it’s been a while since I got so confused by a dictionary definition. The sky is blue, the sea is wet, no patients fully recovered. How does the latter have two opposing meanings?
What a native English speaker would say in this instance...
Here's the scenario. A mom is feeding her kid with a spoon in the kitchen. Someone from the living room asks her to come. In this scenario is it natural for a native English speaking mom to say "I can't. I'm feeding the kid"? If not what would be a natural response? Thanks in advance!
