Rafa still looks like a teenager when he smiles like that

These two have the best bromance in sports. Class 24/7/365

After Nadal exposes his piece, what will he do with the shirt?

So the shirt will expose its private parts? The word you are looking for is displayed.

Not everyone is a native speaker of English.

So it’s a good thing that he corrected OP and provided a better word to use… assuming op wants to improve

I was able to decipher the meaning, so communication occurred. Were they being helpful or just correct? Intent matters.

Intent matters to a degree, but the commenter wasn’t particularly rude or mean about the mistake and their comment may help OP improve their English. You’re acting like their intent was to embarrass or be rude to OP but I disagree that’s the case and feel your knee-jerk defense of OP’s language skills is unwarranted

They could’ve just said “haha idiot you used ‘exposed’ wrong” but instead they basically explained why ‘exposed’ was flawed and suggested an alternative

I disagree that my considering the circumstances of OP’s word choice might be due to being a speaker of English as a second language was a “knee jerk” reaction. I put forth a possibility to consider.

I mean - I don’t think you spent too long musing over your comment and wondering if you should make it, I’m not sure why it wouldn’t be knee-jerk

It is not even necessarily wrong. See "Exposition"/"Expo": An event where things are exposed.

Poor Novak. Always in their shadows.

If he manages to stick around for another 3 years, he has a chance of making the number for the most amount of slams. Not that he will be revered for it or even celebrated nearly as much as Roger or Rafa.

Because there are really no great men tennis players in his time. During the prime of Rafa and Roger, they had some contenders, now it’s very thin.

Man, wonder what the line is to where they make a museum strictly for you.

TIL there's a Nadal Museum already

The Rafa Nadel museum? Yeah. Definitely on my "to do list". Right after my visit to the 2nd largest ball of twine museum in North Dakota.

As someone who taught tennis and loves it and played competitively into my 50s, I’d love to go. Rafa is one of the great athletes and sportspersons of all time. If you don’t get it, that’s your loss

Yet you still clicked an article about Nadal and Federer and was even compelled to comment. If anyone has a hardon for these guys it must be you

Last I knew it’s actually in Kansas. Have you seen the largest ball on twine in Minnesota. Both attractions are much better than Wally World

Believe it or not, you are not the center of the universe and individuals with different personalities and interests exist outside of you (and thank god for that)
