Can native two-year-old really recognize such complex dinosaur words？Just curious
I came across a tweet from an American dad showing his daughter's(2yo) dinosaur book, and I couldn’t help but wonder do little kids really read those super long words? And do native speakers actually know how to spell them? In my native language, the names of these creatures are really simple, they can be literally translated as "long-necked dinosaur," "three-horned dinosaur," "sword dinosaur," "ancestor bird," "king dinosaur, " '' steal egg dinosaur''
If the answer is D, shouldn't it say "is done?"

Help me with this question
All the alternatives seems right to me
Why have the english never needed an official body to regulate their language?
If the english language doesn't have an official body that regulates the unique meaning of words like the Royal Spanish Academy, then how can english speakers understand the same meaning of a word when they speak to each other? How do you resolve the problem in official and formal language when two english speakers have different definitions for the same word? Why did the English never need to create an official body to legally regulate the meaning of the words they use, while the spanish did need to create one (the RAE)? Why are there peoples who need to create an organization that defines fixed definitions for the words in their language (the spanish people) and peoples who do not (the anglosaxon people)?
What do you call this thing?

Questions about the word “Both” in negative sentences
I came across this section in my cousin’s English textbook on how to use the word “both” in negative sentences. Here is the example from the textbook: “Both my brothers don't like birds” I thought the sentence meant “Neither of my brothers likes birds” But apparently it means “One of my brothers likes birds, but the other doesn't.” Some sites even suggest that “both” cannot be used in negative sentences, which makes it even more confusing for me. Which is correct?
