Hi, Anton Shepelev - Denis Mosko!
I read your message from 26.02.2021 19:54

 AM> I do not see anything special in the phrase "bear the  brunt
 AM> of",  which you placed in the subject, that might not be un-
 AM> derstood at intermediate level.  That  is  a  simple  phrase
 AM> where  the verb "to bear" governs the unfinished noun phrase
 AM> "brunt of...". What is your exact problem with  parsing  and
 AM> understanding it?

Bye, Anton!
