I need help about this question
I'm very confused about this question. In my opinion the answer should be either b or c.
Is this sentence lexically ambiguous?
I came across this example sentence “He spent the evening sizing me up intellectually.”when I read the dictionary. Two possible interpretations came up in my mind one is this guy presumably an HR was assessing my capacity in a clever and meticulous way and the other is He was assessing my intellectual capability to perform a job. English adverbs sometimes can be really confusing
Consonant Clusters Are the Real Villains
Bruh, consonant clusters are killing me at this point. *Mon****ths***, *clot****hes***, *o****bv****iously*, *I’****ve b****een*, type shit. It's too hard, man. It feels like I’ll never get better no matter how much I dedicate to it. My mouth isn’t supposed to move like this. Dudes who invented these words gotta be kidding. Real talk.

How can I improve my English accent
[https://voca.ro/11jNm7CaKjKF](https://voca.ro/11jNm7CaKjKF) Here I am reading a text. I feel like this is the highest level of “correct” pronunciation I have at the moment. Do I have specific things I could improve? I am also wondering if it is obvious what my native language is if you hear this. PS I am really trying to get better at English, but I cannot keep up this pronunciation a long time.
Whoever vs whomever
I'd like to prefix that I am american but just a little stupid. I know that whoever works as subject and whomever as object but I'm currently watching the rookie and a sentence said in it threw me off "It seemed likely that whomever sent that text killed Dim" Shouldn't it be whoever? Like "whoever" sent that text is the subject performing the action or am I missing something here?
How to be really prophicient in English.
I have four months in a job that requires to speak English with real customers everyday by phone and even though I'm getting more confident in the language I got a strong accent and also I don't feel confident to talk about something that is not related to the technical vocabulary that I use in my job. Any advice?
Does my sentence sound natural?

Is “whisper off” a noun here? Does it mean the same as whisper?
