1)What is the differences between entrance and entry in these meaning?

ex: You can leave your umbrella in the entry

 I’ll meet you at the main entrance.


2) What is the difference between glint and sparkle as verbs?

3) Are frizzy hair the same as flyaway hair?

4) What does this "in house" mean at the notice of the forum? Please note, all posts are moderated by our in-house language experts, so make sure your suggestions, help, and advice house the kind of information an international language teacher would offer

( I think that in-house means within the forum, doesn't it?

1) You can leave your umbrella at the entrance.

2) Generally:

glint:  to shine usually by reflection

sparkle:  to shine with tiny bright flashes

but many times they're synonyms 

3) No. Frizzy: tightly curled

4) Yes

1) I know they can both be deployed here. But I want to know the difference
2) WHat is the difference?

 I haven't misunderstood anything. Entry isn't to  be used in that context.

I didn't think of the context myself. I referred to Oxford dictionary
