Different Ways to Say "YES"
FLUENTLAND.COM
My 2 cents:
- "definitely" must not be confused with "definitively"
- another expression used by Krystyna: "Is the pope catholic?" (the meaning is more "obviously" than a simple yes.

Signs and Symbols You Need to Know
FLUENTLAND.COM
There's something important which is not said here, it's that English speaking people giev a name accordibg to the fonctions while in French, we give a name according to the shape.
In other words, in French a "point" is a "point"... OK we can qualify and say "point final" but that's all.
In English, something with that shape "." is a point (math and printing), a dot (music), a decimal point (math), a period (American linguistics)/full stop (Brit linguistics) and others I don't havre in mind.
in French "#" is a "dièse"; in English this is a hash(tag) (phone keypad, social networks), a sharp (music), the number sign (before a number in American).

Hi Gérard
I would have written "to be attracted by" so I searched in wordreference and found
https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/attracted-to-or-attracted-by.1167887/
I would have written "to be attracted by" so I searched in wordreference and found
https://forum.wordreference.com/threads/attracted-to-or-attracted-by.1167887/
There is a very subtle difference. If you are attracted "to" someone, you gravitate toward them like bees are attracted to flowers.
If you are attracted "by" someone, you find them attractive but you aren't necessarily pulled toward them.
