1)“其”是古文里用的,现在书面也很少用了,可能有时候在新闻里会有。”其“一般不表示”它“,然后”其“比较中立,感觉好像你不认识他。

2)差不多的。我觉得台湾人用”或许"多一些。

3)是的。而且现在流行的APP中文就叫:应用。

4)“觉得”一定是动词,“感觉”可以是“feel"或者是”feeling“。它们有时候差不多,但是”觉得“比较像”to think",“感觉”比较像“to feel"

5)可以的。没问题。

6)”在乎“ “在意”差不多,“在乎”用得更多一些。

The 了 here should be 'changing'. It implies 'I had clothes before'. Similar examples: 没电了。没水了。没钱了。

They are same. So they are interchangeable.

Usually there are not. '走' is 'walk'. ‘去’ is 'to go'. Here ‘那走吧’ is a phrase which is translated as 'let's go'. But in other cases, they are not interchangeable.

Yes, there is. 体育馆 is a place for football, soccer, basketball, badminton match. More like a studio. 健身房 is GYM for you to work out such as weightlifting, jogging...

是xiǎolì. I think the problem is the voice actor read it with a tone. So it sounds longer than regular 'lì' and make it sound like 'liè'

Ah, I never know China is 83rd of population density in the world. Thank you for letting me know. I think there are two reasons that Chinese use 人太多 that often. First of course is the education. 人太多 is what we learnt since we are kids. It‘s a stereotyping image. The second one is though China is a big country, most population lives in east China. 90% population lives on 40% land of China. So it makes people feel 人太多。http://baike.baidu.com/picview/244361/244361/0/b258f5c4e0ebd2968326ac4b.html#albumindex=0&picindex=0

In most cases, 好姐妹 is used for girls. If a man says: 你是我的好姐妹. It sounds like he is a gay.

Sweating emoticon is widely used. Usually it means: I don't know what to say. So embarassment is one of the situation.
