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

LikeReply 31 year ago

- acronimous

In grammatical terms, "There's two of them" is incorrect because the verb "is" (from "there is") is singular, while "two of them" is plural. The correct form is "There are two of them," as the plural subject requires the plural verb "are." more »

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 13 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 13 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 »

take a look here for a full break-down: https://www.grammar.com/chapter-8-affect-vs-effect
In short, affect is used when something actively changes something else. An effect is the result of that change.
So "Empower them to take action on issues that affect their lives." is correct :) more »

not 'effecting' as 'affecting' but ' having effect' as not in ' having affect'.

LikeReply 63 years ago
- Greying\_Geezer

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 »

Sub a lettuce leaf for the bun, to be healthier. (If you leave out the comma, it sounds like you are trying to make the bun healthier instead of replacing it altogether.)

LikeReply 194 years ago

I agree with your comments except with one reservation. I'd submit that the comma is unnecessary and likely incorrect. Although your interpretation re healthier is grammatically possible, I think it's unlikely. Better still would be to rearrange the wording to "For a healthier alternative, substitute a lettuce leaf for the bun." I wouldn't abbreviate substitute, and I'd find the substitution very messy to eat :-) more »

I was an avid learner and wanted desperately to improve my grammar skills. That's when I did a Google search and found Grammar.com. I printed much of the material and worked on it tirelessly back then. It may not surprise me if I still find some of the materials in one of my old binders. 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.

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 »

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.
