Hints:
32. there's no braige over "ONMLKJIH", why is it O to H instead of H to O...
37. oops, I've forgotten the answer...
38. wh[ea]ther ... for whom know Regular Expression...
39. back to basic...

38. whether or not
32. troubled water

So, no bridge! Then what are the blanks above "ONMLKJIH"? Air?

so you don't know "Regular Expression"...
Oops! It should be w[ea,he]ther. Sorry.

There is nothing above "ONMLKJIH", just to show that "ONMLKJIH" is beneath.
BTW, this is a hard one, though I could find the answer from a dictionary.

>Oops! It should be w[ea,he]ther. Sorry.
Do you mean: "w[(ea)|(he)]ther" ?

OK! Another wild guess:
38. weather forcast

昔人:
> Do you mean: "w[(ea)|(he)]ther"?
Yes... sorry that I have used a comma, which is my own extension.

38. weather forecast 對了，但另一個答案較佳。

"backwater" is part of the answer.

二魚:
Sorry, incorrect your solution is.

> 39. Highway overpass
Y E S

> 38. weather or whether? Haven't heard that before.
Neither have I. The second answer is "uncertain weather".

> 37. What dictionary do you use?
I'm not using the one I found the idiom, and I've forgotten which one it is, sorry.
