One sentence I sent you before was incomplete. Can you please check it please?

1. Yes -- or "brings in"

2, 3 -- yes

4. Do you mean bring it up as a topic of discussion or literally bringing it up (as in vomiting!)?

5, 6, 7, 8 -- yes

9. I'd say "turn off the gas"

10, 11 -- yes

12. I'd say "get along" although "get on" is not incorrect.
