| I did a collocation exercise today. and the following is the answer. impeccably attired painfully obvious perfectly plain now look at the first, attired, does it mean clothes, is its meaning well-dressed? painfully obvious, what's the meaning painfully? can you give me a sentence to illustrate its meaning? perfectly plain, what's the meaning of plain? please give me example sentence. thanks a lot, by the way, please look at the following sentences: 1, In what country was he born? 2, What country was he born in? these two sentences, which one is formal? which one is informal? why? thank you again. |

| impeccably attired...very well dressed painfully obvious...so obvious that it would cause pain if it could perfectly plain...completely unadorned, not fancy in any way It is less formal to end a sentence with a preposition (like in). |
