oui, mike! foreign words are always tricky, but an hors d'oeuvre sounds better. (but god knows english speakers really mangle the pronunciation of oeuvre!)

perhaps, but MANY native speakers use it. maybe it is a hypercorrection, but "off of" often means "from" i cannot turn my eyes away from her i obtained the information from the internet

either is correct candy

what is the condition of ... ? OR what is its condition? (without context, all of these sentences sound a little odd)

and adjective or not, it is still a reductive past participle. the broken pot is on the shelf - also means, the pot that has been broken (in the past) is on the shelf (now, presently)

it can often mean "only" ... i want to buy a car but i just have 100 dollars ... or i have just 100 dollars. it can also mean "right, correct, fair", especially in the moral or legal sense.

i agree doubly with lib, both on his interpretation of the original post as well as his response that it sounds a bit stilted. (again, punctuation has caused the confusion ... the "poster" should not have put question marks after each sentence,

ask for the moon, yes ... though i have honestly never heard of cry for the moon. there is also the expression "shoot for the moon", which means to attempt something extremely difficult OR to spare no expense

i would probably just say "a million thanks" ... some people refer to a thank you note as simple a "thank-you" (hyphenated, maybe...). so a bride may say, "i have yet to send out my thank-yous for all the gifts we received"

3B = i am looking forward to hearing from you (would be ok as well), but still not as good as number 1 in my opinion
