hmm.. not that complicated.. suprising you cant keep up.. lets break it down..

in regaurd to literary art, the words great(the use of gull in poetry, writing, music, ect..), in regaurd to answering the question(What does the word nerve mean in this sentence.
The whole sentence is "Do you believe the nerve? Did you see the way she looked at us? I'll show her. " ).. not as accurate(your answer is not as accurate as mine).. would you agree

and in reply to the spiteful phrasing.. a little modesty perhaps
