关于Set的意思和用法的提问

A: If you set down a drink, it means you go from holding the drink to putting it on a table (or other object).

"Set down" in your sentence might be a different meaning.
If you set down a path (or road, or trail), it means to start traveling in that direction. To say the sentence in a more simple way, "You started walking out into the beautiful landscape."
The original sentence is a little bit confusing.

A: Delay someone:
"Spilling coffee on my homework set me back a few hours because I had to redo it."

Or to cost:
"That new car set me back $25,000."

A: @tomomama: As a verb, it means to set a clock back to a certain time. As a noun (setback), it's something that impedes the progress of what you're doing.

A: @domdom16: It's talking about an actress who had a panic attack while filming a movie.

A: to correct a misunderstanding.

If you wrongly accused your friend of doing something, they will want to "set the record straight" with you. They will tell you that they did not do it.

A: I set up the equipment.
He will set up the shop.
They already set up the TV for us.
Why not set it up now so it's ready when you need it.

A: Each week I set aside $20. When I have saved enough money, I'm going to buy a new bicycle.

A: We're about to eat dinner, could you help set the table?

A: It is a set of balls

A: @Tomumako: "I'm all set for my trip next week "
"I'm all set and ready to go."
"I'm all set for school."

A: Both expressions are the same to me.

I'm all set means that you are ready, before going somewhere.
Example: I'm all set to tell others that they are ready to leave.

Replace 'I'm all set' to 'I'm all ready'. The meaning is the same - to be prepared to go somewhere or do something ^^

A: Set = Includes everything as one

Combo = Things can be added on

For example:
-A McDonald's Large meal is a combo

- A salad and steak is a set.

A: There is no difference.

A: Setting is used in stories to describe where the story takes place. This includes the time, area and atmosphere/mood.

Settings are what you can change when playing a game or watching a video.

A: "Karen set off for the supermarket"
"Karen set out into the storm"
"Karen set out to become a top journalist"

Set off is just to go somewhere.
Set out can be either to go somewhere, or to achieve something. It implies something more difficult that just 'set off' would seem. It sounds like going on a mission.

Both of them have a lot of other uses as well, though - you can set off a bomb, you can set out plans = there are lots of different uses, it's a little bit complex. Would you like to provide more context?

A: She set me up. I was not aware of anything until it all happened.
...until it, all went down.

A: - Thank you!
“The effect will be not so good if just use one alone." < -- That is a great sentence and works perfectly for what you are trying to say. But if you want to use your first sentence, you could say:

"Generally speaking, you will need a complete set to get the correct sound effect(s). If you only get one speaker, you won't get the correct sound effect(s)."

or

"Generally speaking, you will need a complete set to get the full sound effect. One speaker won't give you sound quality this system is designed for"

There are many ways you could say this depending on the loud speaker system you are selling and what the customer is looking for. I hope these two sentences I provided help you out!

"It is already set"

A: so after work, I bought a set of textbooks which could help me learn English more effectively

A: "I made a silly remark, at which he scoffed."
"On which flight are you traveling?"
"In which room are you staying?"
"He picked up the hammer with which he began to work."
"For which of my friends are you working this weekend?"
If you look at these examples, "which" is used because we are choosing between a known number of things. Whether we use "at", "on", "in", etc, depends on what we do with the item we're selecting. One scoffs AT a remark, one travels ON a flight, one stays IN a room, one works WITH a hammer, and one works FOR a friend.

A: This set meal includes broiled fish with salt, rice, miso soup, soba noodles, pickles, another small food and tea.

-> This set meal includes broiled fish with salt, rice, miso soup, soba noodles, pickles, a small side item and tea.

The broiling time of the fish cause around a twenty-five-minute waiting time to be prepared your food.

-> The broiling time of the fish requires around a twenty-five-minute waiting time for your food to be prepared. (This way is understandable, but personally I would reword it to: "The broiling of the fish requires around a 25 minute wait.")

A: You could say "build confidence" to sound "natural" but it's understood regardless.

A: I'm pretty sure it means that they focused on that one person. They didn't like anyone else just that one guy
