How to use "Against" in context?
There are many different meanings to the word "Against."
The most straightforward meaning is "opposed to." For example, if someone asks you to put your fork against the plate, you would be interpreted as meaning that you want the fork to be in contact with the plate so that you can use it as a tool.
Another example is when you say "I am against raising taxes." This means that you believe that taxes should not be raised, and that people who advocate for raising taxes are wrong.
Opposition can also denote a relationship. Suppose someone asks you how you are doing.
