Re: your back goes Hi Neillythere,
Thank you for your circumstantial explanation the matter in question. Words fails me to express my gratitude for your kindness. Your post at the present thread proved yours gratuitous willingness to help to the indigent.
But seriously, there was a grounded cause to put the present question on the table for discuss, namely, the first thing to do when the pain is killing you is to realize that your back didn't go anywhere at all. It didn't slip, it isn't dislocated and it certainly didn't "go out" as the expression seems to imply. All this sounds oddly enough and make a nice mess of things. For us, NNES’ is a common practice to break the meaning of many English words and expressions in the light of our own’s pictures on the basis of our own’s experiencies so we got frequently a distorted picture of the events in question. You might to experience our unutterable embarrassments only if you try to learn another’s language. I know you (NES) usually make that with very bad grace.
Thank you again for your backing.
Regards.
