Ok, I'm going to google everything you just wrote there and get back to you.

Can I get a Lingo Lesson from you?

B+: where and what is this?
Can caps: what determines their acceptability?

5U4? I recognize this.

Is there a Cliff Notes reference that I can purchase, or access online, that you would recommend for a crash course?
