Grammar
QUESTIONS with grammar help please?
Could you please take a look at this?
1 I'm selling everything except for/apart from...
2 I left the TV on as background image/sound. (can you say both because I mostly hear SOUND?) (I know I've asked this but I don't know if you can say IMAGE?)
3 You can hear the phone viberating better if its on a table rather than on the floor.
4 I can be your girlfriend for tonight in front of everyone so that people think you do have one.
5 The cord can't reach the plug from here.
6 Follow me while you wait/are waiting for your appointment.
7 The worse team we could have come up against was LA. We got lucky in the draw and got an easy team as opponent in the first round.
8 There are always yellow ones left at the end of the pack of candy because there are more yellow ones to begin with and I don't like them as much as the other colors. (candy)
9 How many minutes do I have left before it shuts off.
10 I usually finish the meat before the side dish.
thank you

5 The cord can't reach the plug from here. (is it Can't and not Won't?)
