I mean, I play stuff, but I'm not very good :-)

I was mostly interested because I used to be a music major (voice)... but I don't really sing any more.

I should practice singing again. I'm really no good at it.

Q: Counsel for How are the many meanings of "as" linked?

Can you please counsel me on how to rewrite How are the many meanings of "as" linked?, for a reopening? Can this be reopened, if I ask just for one or 2 "underlying ideas or metaphors"? Ironically, it is closed "as too broad" but "as" 'S broadness is exactly my problem! Thank you all.
