"Post" is absolutely wrong. Unless .... It is asking about where the person attached to the dot is posting to an online forum. Maybe. Possibly. And that is stretching it. Does the teacher's book give explanations of why an answer is correct? Or perhaps the textbook publisher has a website that explains the answers? And an American wouldn't refer to a place of work as a "post" unless they are referring to someone in the military. Reply #161. Feb 02 14, 7:14 PM |

Or a nurse, government official, teacher, or clerk. It has the sense of being "stationed" somewhere, and people might use it ironically, but in my experience it's fairly common. Reply #162. Feb 02 14, 8:00 PM |

I've worked as a teacher and adjunct professor. Never have I heard anyone describe the job as a "post" in normal speech. "I have the post Literature for the 8th grade this year." While that job deserves combat pay, no matter where it is, it's not commonly called a "post". The jobs can be offered by posting the opening, and you can get a posting, but it's not called a "post" once you get it. Reply #163. Feb 02 14, 11:50 PM |

Never mind the answer, the question is wrong! Loopt mapping service gives you information on your friends' pysical location (whereabouts) as well as their internet activity (posts). Reply #165. Feb 03 14, 6:43 AM |

Even in an informal letter or an email I've never seen gotta or wanna. It seems people tend to write more formally than they speak. Reply #169. Jan 20 15, 2:22 PM |
