This phrase basically means 'for whom the bell rings' but generally in a church because the word 'toll' implies that the bell is large and making a louder sound than a smaller bell ringing. For me, I get the sense of a funeral bell here. There are many song meaning websites that will help you more with the full interpretation of the song.http://www.englishforums.com/English/NeedCheckingAnswer/dmwx/post.htm#18396Tue, 06 Jan 2004 23:11:00 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:18396vivica"so they know what they have done" or even better...

I guess it is context dependant because it could mean either, depending on if it is a question or if it is an exclamation.http://www.englishforums.com/English/IsThisGramaticallyRight/dlwr/post.htm#18334Tue, 06 Jan 2004 14:55:54 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:18334vivicaI think it would be better to say 'we went clubbing over the new year' or 'we went clubbing on new years eve'http://www.englishforums.com/English/WhatDoesOrWhatMean/dmgp/post.htm#18333Tue, 06 Jan 2004 14:54:18 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:18333vivica'Or what' is generally a rhetorical question (a question that needs no answer because the answer is implied by the question). Therefore, in this case, 'is this scary or what?' is implying that the speaker thinks that it is scary, not really asking if the other person thinks it is scary. It can also work the other way in that the implied answer is no. For example, 'Do you know what you are doing or what?' Hope that helps a little.http://www.englishforums.com/English/Swearing/dmhg/post.htmTue, 06 Jan 2004 14:44:16 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:18332vivicaHi, I'm not sure if this goes in this board or not, so please move it if it is in the wrong place. Could anyone tell me if there is a standard rating for english swear words? I've tried to find a list on the internet but I can't find one at all. I need to know for my schoolwork. If anyone can help me and direct me to one that would be brilliant. Thankyou.
