1 AnswerLanguages3 years ago[British English] Please help understand 'linger' (context inside)?
So, there's a guy who's into underage girls. He lives with one who he met when she was 13. At this point, she looks like she's 18 or 20. Their acquaintance says, "Ask me, he lets (girl's name) linger. Cos, in the right light, she don't look like she's quite aged out yet."
So, what is this 'linger' or 'let linger' all about?

2 AnswersLanguages1 decade agoEnglish Grammar. Reported Speech. Past Tenses?
I need to render a dialogue in reported speech. A woman tells her acquaintance that she was born in Boston. Verb phrase "to be born" is most commonly used in Simple Past. But if I got to render the dialogue in reported speech will it be "She told Peter she was born in Boston" or "She told Peter she had been born in Boston"? I'd rather use Past Perfect. Is it correct?
ThanQ for your help.

I saw a Tamil language movie, Angadi Theru, with Eng subs of course since I don't speak Tamil.
Now, there was one obscure expression I cannot make out.

Please, if you have any ideas of what it could stand for, help me, answer my question.
