Though.
I like my apartment, but I don’t like the neighborhood. I like my apartment. I don’t like the neighborhood, though. “Though” is used sometimes just like this, instead of the word “but”. You use it when you are trying to emphasize the difference between ideas. You can also say, “I like my apartment, though I…
Irregular Plurals
English is never simple. I feel so sorry for humans. To make a noun plural, most of the time you add an ‘s’. “Cat” becomes “Cats”. Sometimes, you ad an “es” such as “foxes”, “churches”, “bushes”.

I understand that. This is my luxury box. I have others. I don’t need a hotel.

I haven’t managed to edit and upload our video on the letter “U”. It’s been crazy around here…..
