What does did a stint mean?

How do you use make it in a sentence?

is a fair question.

The answer is I do what I can!

My first real experience with make came while editing my novel. I'd made the rookie mistake of not creating a .txt file that included all the names I'd invented for characters, locations, items, etc. Now my protagonist and heroine had to start out knowing someone, someplace, something and there was no make in sight. A call to a make-sense friend (who, true to form, didn't answer) and a google/books search later there, like a miracle: The Make. It was even marked with a date, making it the first thing to appear in what I knew had to be my reference book: the Dictionary of American Regional English.

The dictionary entry defined make like this: An abbreviation of maker. So it can't be used in every case, only in some. And yet and yet, if your protagonist or your heroine were wondering why you hadn't mentioned such and such a location or object, you could look up that item in your handy reference tool and say this word: I don't know about an explanation. I don't have any idea. But it's important, and I haven't mentioned it, and it's on this list. You could tell your story using a word that sounded mysterious because it meant more than one thing.

My advice: if you need a good word to explain something that isn't listed in your reference works, take a look at The American Heritage Dictionary, which has a listing of 1,800 odd words, each with its own usage note. There, and throughout the dictionary itself, you will find many more suggestions for how to use the word make all you have to do is try to understand what is being described or explained.

How would you say to your friends I just wanted to apologize for my behavior in bed last night? Would you use I'm sorry (s wrkshn lhr)?

What does did a stint mean?

Why not use a word like "stayed in", "stayed at", etc.


The original sentence is: "He spent a stint in prison." As in: "He spent some time in prison." Stayed/stayed in: The first example is the more common of the two. 1) to remain or stay for a period of time.
In the case of your example, it means that he stayed there for a period of time and was released/bailed out. It can be used to describe a number of things that were done by people. It does not really mean "a stint", but rather describes a situation where the person did not leave the place quickly.

2) to spend a period of time (as in prison) in a specific place, usually by the authorities (for the purpose of punishment).
If we compare this with a stint, we can see that it is a short period of time that was spent in a prison. It does not describe anything related to staying in a prison.
