‘By car’ and ‘in the car’ aren’t always interchangeable, are they?
Hello everyone, Would 'by car' and 'in the car' be interchangeable in these sentences?  1. It takes me about 30 minutes **by car/in the car**. 2. It’s 20 minutes **by car/in the car**. 3. 15-20 minutes on foot or a few minutes **by car/ in the car**. 4. I go there **by car/in the car**. 5. The nearest grocery store is 3 minutes away **by car/in the car**. Thank you very much for your help!

Why is there a "to" in the last sentence? It sounds more natural to me without it

I need a friends to practice English
Hi everyone, Hope you're all doing great! I'm currently learning English and looking for a speaking partner to practice with regularly. I'm a beginner, so I prefer simple and friendly conversations to help build my confidence and improve fluency. If you're also learning or open to practicing together, feel free to comment or DM me. Let’s help each other grow. Thanks! 😊

Time notation, is a dot valid between hour and minute?
I am reading a book and came across this notation. I suspect the authors are mainly British and I have been historically much more exposed to American English and notations. Is a dot between hour and minute valid in formal English? Is it contemporary?

Is it necessary to put "a" in front of the "diamond"? Can we just say "Diamond is the hardest natural substance"?

Is English a flexible and tolerant language?
1) Do you think English is a flexible, "tolerant" language when it comes to its usage? For example, I also speak French and I find it too strict, it's hard to make zero mistakes in French. Is English more accommodating? 2) And a question for native English speakers: do you think the level of English of non-native redditors is good?
