Yes, the title probably made you think I need help with Grammar. Actually, I'm here to offer help. I'm takinf reaaaaaaally advanced grammar (although I may not always shot it  ) and I can help you with it if necessary. Anything from parts of speech to diagramming sentences I have covered. (I was taking collage freshmen-level grammar in the fourth grade) |
by that logic, cheese graters do not exist, as they are not graters made of cheese.
Do you just make everything I say into a quote?

I'm studying for a grammar test, and I was wondering if you could help me.
If you have a non-essential subordinate clause followed by the conjunctive adverb "however", which is in turn followed by independent clause, should the conjunctive adverb be preceeded with an semicolon or a comma? I forget sometimes.
Nah I'm just kidding, but if you need any help with others let me know.

 I only got part of that. That was a run-on sentence, though. And sure, if you want to help. Because apparently there's more grammar I don't know about. |

I have to first ask what grade you're in, because I might not be able to help.

Grade 8.
S/V Agreement is one of my weaknesses.
It's so easy, if S = Singular, then V = Plural and if S = Plural, then V = Singular. |
I love how off topic these welcome topics get. =P
You got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATH!!! ... =P

"Bob and his friends goes to the store."
The correct verb to use is "went", rather than goes because even with the added on phrase "and his friends, we are talking about Bob and his friends, which is plural.
"Either Timmehdex or senor baldeman stole the cookie."
The correct verb to use is "ate", because "either" implies one of the two in the group.
I need to know how NOT to put singular nouns with singular verbs for plural verbs with plural verbs unintentionally while writing.

Sorry, I forgot! Wagner: Do you mean present tense, future tense, and past tense? That's all I learned! I learned participles and other stuff as well... Past Tense: When did you come home? When is an adverb describing when you got home, which is past tense. Present Tense: Are you coming home? If somebody called to ask you this, it would be at the present, right? The answer is either you are or you aren't, both of which are at the present. Future Tense: We will invent flying cars. Will is typically used as an adverb describing the future. This example is no different. Is this what you wanted? |
