Your dictionary should help you now.

	Kaos  #374138  Sun, 03 Jun 07 12:01 AM Oh! I see. My dictionary says: fare = to get along. I now understood what it means in that context. How about: See how he fares against the oldest enemy...    Kaos

	Peaceblinkfriend  #374217  Sun, 03 Jun 07 07:31 AM I wonder whether it will sound formal if I say, 'How are you faring with your project?' instead of 'How are you getting along with your project?'. Thank you. Best wishes, Peaceblinkfriend    Peaceblinkfriend Joined on Wed, May 9 2007 Australia Contributing Member (1,743)

	Clive  #374594  Sun, 03 Jun 07 11:08 PM Hi, Yes, unless you say it with a smile to show that you are using slightly formal language as a modest form of humour. Best wishes, Clive    Clive

	Peaceblinkfriend  #374812  Mon, 04 Jun 07 11:32 AM Ah, I get it now. Thank you for helping me, Clive. Humm...could you please tell me what 'a modest form' means? I mean I understand what 'humour' means but I don't have the foggiest idea about 'a modest form of humour'. Thank you. Best wishes, Peaceblinkfriend    Peaceblinkfriend
