I have never heard of any of these. I am from the USA. Is this a UK thing?

1. Context is needed, but I believe the speaker is saying that they feel like people are staring at them like they are looking at a piece of meat (i.e. eyeing them hungrily) instead of looking at a person. The speaker is likely wearing something revealing/provocative. 2. Funny-looking, weird, and strange are all words that would describe "goofy" here. 3. From Wiktionary: Drive - "(Military) A sustained advance in the face of the enemy to take a strategic objective. Synonyms: attack, push Napoleon's drive on Moscow was as determined as it was disastrous." "On" specifically is the natural preposition for this noun. "Driving on" implies they are advancing toward their objective - Berlin, in this case 4. This is an instruction for controlling a vehicle - in this case likely an aircraft. A stick in this context is the control device, AKA "flight stick" "joystick" or just "stick" in English. The command "Hard stick right" means to push/pull the vehicle controls forcefully to the right - likely as hard as you are physically able (within reason.) 5. Colloquial, especially in the southern US - "on" doesn't hold meaning other than it is how we imply a direction of movement. Compare it to "Go on," "Head on (over, out, etc.)" "Come on (over)" 6. "To settle for" is to agree/accept something even if it is not 100% satisfactory, i.e. a compromise. In this case, the speaker/listener likely want to open the object, but will "settle for" a peek inside instead of fully opening it.

These are interesting questions, I actually don’t know the answer to all of them, so I’m curious to see what other members of the community say. 1. I’m not sure exactly what this means, maybe more context would help. 2. ‘Goofy’ usually means silly in behavior or if describing features unconventional looks. 3. I think ‘driving on’ means ‘approaching’ in this context but I’d be interested to here other interpretations. 4. No idea what this means, was it a military order? 5. Here the ‘on’ doesn’t convey much extra meaning, it’s a colloquial way of saying ‘get out of here’, it’s perhaps a softer way of saying it. I associate this more with US than British English so maybe a teacher from the IS could answer better. 6. To ‘settle for’ means to ‘accept’ or to ‘agree to’ something, even though it’s not really what you wanted. Example ‘she wanted champagne but in the end she had to settle for sparkling wine’ I hope this helps
