Is 'Homely' Commonly Used in American English to Mean 'Unattractive'? Need Confirmation from Native Speakers!

Native English speakers, how do you feel about the Russian accent, does it sound pleasant, do you like it, does it infuriate you?

Out of curiosity - do you know these words well?
I came across them in one of the quite wordy fantasy series. I was wondering how familiar are native speakers when it comes to these expressions and how common are they: * GERMINATE * SENESCENCE * DULCET * WEAL * SERIATIM * MORAINE * MASTICATING * THROES * DESICCATE * PRANDIAL * TRAIPSE * BOLUS
Which one do you prefer: “anticlockwise” or “counterclockwise”?

What's wrong here? Shouldn't they be equivalent?

How common is it to say/write "I'da"?
Hello, I was recently playing a video game and one of the characters said "You know, I'da waited, but...". I had never heard anyone say "I'da" before, so I'd like to know how common is it to use it in casual conversations. Is it something we'd rather say and not write while texting someone?

My teacher insists that the answer is 5, but I think it’s 3. (Question 63)

What are these 2 called? Specifically the areas highlighted in yellow
Also why do some streets have them (the yellow areas) and some only have the drain? (Although this one isn’t really about English so sorry)
Are the words "won" and "one" pronounced the same?
Are they pronounced differently? cause every time I listen they sound the same.
How do you pronounce 20
How do you pronounce " twenty "? Ive seen a post in the internet and one guy said that he pronounce it like "twenny" so because of that I'm confused now and I don't know how to say it more correctly ( twenty, twendy, twenny, etc.)
