Hi,
Around Darwin ,we get tropical cyclones,because we are close to that hot water to the north of us.We also get continental thunderstorms-just come off the land,very violent thunderstorms with a mixture of hot arid,dry air and hot,humid air.We get monsoons,classic monsoons,where the northwest monsoons come in for weeks on time.
What are the meanings of parts in bold ,please?
just come off the land This should really be written as 'they just come off the land'. It means they come from the land to the ocean.
We get monsoons,classic monsoons,where the northwest monsoons come in for weeks on time. A monsoon refers to a type of rainstorm. It is saying that these storms come for weeks without stopping. 'On time' should be written as 'at a time', it means 'for a period of continuous time.'
and in the second part does where mean ,that in the same place that we get classic mosoon and monsoons ,we get northwest monsoons too, No. 'Where' here means 'cases in which'.
Best wishes, Clive
