True or false? Polly is opposed to the letter "e".
This statement is not true.
This statement is false. Bob asks Polly what she has "against the letter "e". This expression (to have something against someone or something) expresses that one person is "opposed to" or "resents" another person or thing. Bob mistakenly thinks that Polly did not use the "e" key intentionally. Polly's response to Bob's question is that she has "nothing against" the letter 'e".
