: : ?? What does "to root for" mean?
: It means "to support". As in the song "Take Me Out to the Ballgame". There is a line: "Root, root, root for the home team."
: It's an American term.
: Maybe I spelled it wrong.
I just never heard that before.
But in that case, I support the version of the story where both sides win (ie. a version where both figthers walk away alive and more wise than before :-)
Yeah, I know, Disney spoiled me but things like Hidden Tiger, Crouching Dragon make me sad and I don't like being sad :-(
I don't mind things like "A Mother's Love" where a lot of emotions are carried but I hate it when authors kill off important persons without a good reason :-)
