I know that saying, for example "There's two of them" is wrong. But can somebody explain it to me in GRAMMATICAL terms?

I am going to buy a couple more. WHY? Why is it so difficult to add one more word, only two letters, when speaking (or writing) the phrase... a couple more? Isn't the correct phrase... A couple OF more
Perhaps it varies by location (West coast specifically} and the dialect or slang? No, that isn't right. Proper grammar doesn't (shouldn't) change from region to region.
I believe the internet - social media has caused language (grammar) laziness. Maybe people do not realize the educational decline, or simply just don't care. Lazy.

IDK to use (who is "she") or (who is "her")
LikeReply 12 years ago
- Greying_Geezer
  Firstly, I believe you mean, "IDK _whether_ to use....". But to answer your question, the correct form is "she", which is the subjective completion (and therefore in the subjective form) required after the linking verb "is" (third person singular of the verb "to be".) "Her" is the objective form of the noun, used, for example, in, "I don't know her." (And just to confuse matters, her can also be a possessive adjective as in, "She brought her umbrella." more »

LikeReply 12 years ago
- Greying_Geezer
  The better wording would be "Try ringing the doorbell...." "Try to ring the doorbell..... implies that one might or might not be able to ring it, which is not the intent. Also, both examples provided are grammatically incorrect in that each example contains two sentences joined by a comma. They should be joined by a colon or a semi-colon or written as two sentences with a period (a.k.a. full stop), a space, and subsequent capitalization. more »

  LikeReply 62 years ago

  You almost certainly want to use "affect" here—the issues have have an impact (or an effect) on their lives. Using "effect" as a verb here would mean that the issues initiate or bring about their lives, which could conceivably be correct in the case of a defining moment or transformation that sends their lives in a totally new direction. If that were the case I'd expect to see further description on this transformation. Again, you almost certainly want to say "affect" in this case. more »

  I agree with your comments except with one reservation. I'd submit that the comma is unnecessary and likely incorrect.

Today, I owe Grammar.com a debt of gratitude. I am hoping to get other family members to utilize the information here. Once again, thank you so much.

  Jessica, "can be " is a linking verb, while "sweeping" is an intransitive verb, having no direct object, and is followed by a prepositional phrase, "across the night sky", which can act as an adverbial phrase, modifying WHERE The Space Station was seen sweeping. Hope that helps. more »

Both versions of this sentence (me as well as I) show as correct in your Check My Writing box above. Are both really correct?

I say "an historic storm." Others say "a historic storm." Which is proper?
LikeReply7 years ago
- Ratna Fleig
  "A historic storm" is proper because "an" is only used if the word after it begins with a vowel sound.
  LikeReply 27 years ago
- Alex Makarov
  not quite. if "h" or the first consonant is silent, then "an" would be appropriate, i.e. an hour, an honor

Hi there,
I'm teaching English as a second language, and my students often make mistakes in the question sentences that are not highlighted by your app. I'd like to share some of them:

- Did my dog had breakfast? (the verb "to have" in the same form as the auxiliary verb - you catch it in Present Simple tense, but not in the Past Simple)
- Had my dog breakfast? (no auxiliary verb)
- I don't want to see him, don't I?

Also I'd like to thank you for catching the most common type of mistake - the wrong word order in question sentences :) Thanks a lot! And if you could add checking for these types of mistakes, your help would be absolutely invaluable! more »

I wanted to see which of two versions of a sentance about a book had the correct grammar:
1:
Its desolate swamps of somber, poison-soaked pages, as beautiful as the chance encounter of a sewing machine and an umbrella on a dissection table, was recognized as an important precursor of Surrealism.
2:
Its desolate swamps of somber, poison-soaked pages, as beautiful as the chance encounter of a sewing machine and an umbrella on a dissection table, were recognized as important precursors of Surrealism.
(Two phrases in each sentence are quotes, but I removed quotation marks to avoid confusing the app.)
The app says both are correct. How can that be? more »
