critical

1. incarnation:act of assuming a human body and human nature. The incarnation of Jesus Christ is a basic tenet of Christian theology. I don't really get the definition.

2. If I am critical of something, what does it mean? like He is critical of vocational emphasisi in Teenager education. What does it mean? He doesn't like teenager education?
3. Before and in front of, any difference between the two? Is the former one for time and latter one for position, I don't really think so though. Before can sometimes refer to position as well.

It just means that you are finding faults with it and making negative comments about it. Usually it is because you don't like it, but not necessarily.

So incarnation basically means something resembles human? Can you give me one example using the word?

Hi,
I think this dog/man/horse/fly is another incarnation of my dead grandmother.

This new political party is not really new. It is another incarnation of a party that used to exist in the 1980's.

Bsest wishes, Clive
