Activities
- You would use "there is no" when you are referring to an object without putting an article (a, an, or the) before the object. For example: There is no way to get around that boulder. You are referring to "way," but you did not put "a," "an," or "the" in front of it. You would use "there is not" when you are referring to an object and you DO put an article before the object. For example: There is not a way to get around that boulder. You are still referring to "way," but you have used the article "a" in front of it. I really hope I was able to help. :)0 votedAugust 24, 20080
- Essentially, there are two basic definitions of "for" that I can think of. One-the way "for" is used in your example-is a reference to something, whether it is time, a thing, or a person. Example: I got a pair of shoes for my friend. The other use of "for" would imply cause and effect between two things. Example: I went to the store, for I was out of milk. I hope this helps. :)0 votedAugust 23, 20080
- When you use "by," it means that something will happen no later than a specified time. For example, if a teacher gives me a project for class, the teacher may say that I need to have that project finished "by" September 3. In this case, I can finish the project any time before September 3, but it must be finished no later than September 3. When you use "until," it means that something must happen before something else can happen. For example, my mother may say that I cannot go to my friend's house until I clean my room. In this case, I must clean my room before I can go to my friend's house. I hope I was able to help. :)0 votedAugust 11, 20080
