Blog comparison

Focusing on the design and not on the content, there have been two blogs that I liked equally, and they are the one of "juanjoromero" and the one of "soymatematicas". Both blogs offer visibility, order and clarity, aspects that are basic on a blog.

The structure of the sections is good, with lots of links and good order of them all.

Here, there is a list of thirty examples of sentences in English in which we can see the expression. Next to each example of sentence in English, we find it also in Spanish. It's great to see what kind of contexts can be used.

On the dictionary British National Corpus, is focused exclusively on the context of the expression you are looking for. In this case, be happy with offers more than one hundred examples. Each of the examples specifies what kind of context it is: religion, interview, meeting...
