write – wrote – written

I write a short story every day.

I wrote a short story yesterday.

I have written hundreds of short stories in my life.

I hear you. = I understand and I agree with you.

E.g.
A: All this work is making me lose my mind.
B: I hear ya, brother. (I am or was in a similar situation)

my grandmother’s mother = my great grandmother

the (weather) forecast =

E.g. According to the weather forecast, we are in for three consecutive days of rain.

to be in for something = to have something come up / this is what will happen

E.g. If you think a visit to Disneyland is all fun, you’re in for a big surprise.
