Profile
I come from a background where the main source of livelihood has been family business from the last several generations. Hence, I play a managerial role in my fathers business of manufacturing of products for various industrial sectors. I have two brothers in Australia and do plan to take a trip to the same very soon. I appreciate peaceful humans and have a special inclination towards those who love to learn English. I am a single male of about 30 and love to engage in practicing of English speaking with other keen learners of English language. Ill let you be the judge for more about me.Therefore, you are encouraged to reach out to me to see if we could be of any help to each other when it comes to English learning, in particular, and with life in general.

    Hi, in my opinion: 1. The book is so popular that it is now 'in its' tenth printing. 2. I prefer going out 'over' watching TV at home. 3. I go to church on Sunday suggests the speaker goes to church every Sunday. However, I go to church on Sundays suggests that the speaker usually goes to church on Sundays, but not necessarily each and every Sunday. Cheers Syed

    Figure out, in my opinion, is more active in nature, that is something that we do in order to find out about something. On the contrary, discover is something more passive in nature that is something that happens on its own, as a result of which we come across something new, like information, etc. Figure out, I reckon, is more of a synonym of 'explore' which is far beyond the scope of the word discover. Example of figure out used: I am stuck in this problem; I seriously need to figure out (or explore or find out) how to solve it. Example of discover used: The police discovered (or found) an abandoned car at the river bank. or Columbus discovered America in so and so year on his journey to so and so place, etc. Thanks Syed

    Hi! I had to manage the meeting myself suggests that you are trying to say that you and no one in place of you, had to manage the meeting, whereas I had to manage the meeting 'by' myself indicates that you were the only person available who managed the meeting. 'by myself' in my opinion, is synonymous to 'on my own' or 'without any other person's support or contribution or help' . Thanks Syed

    Hi! The 'who' in the sentence modifies the adjective 'one' in the phrase one of the martyrs. (Please note that a martyr is a person died fighting in a war or battlefield). Hope that helps.

    Hi! Omitting where would render the sentence ungrammatical; so if you have to delete the 'where' let it be: The library we met at, is the largest in the city , or Let it remain : The library where we met is the largest in the city. Either where (adverb of place) or at (preposition) would be needed to show the relationship between met and library in the following two sentences: 1. The library 'where' we met is the largest in the city 2. The library we met at, is the largest in the city. Other examples of relationship between met and library may include: We met outside the library. We met behind the library, etc Which means a word showing the kind of relationship between the two words is needed. Thanks Syed.

    Hi! Firstly, I want to point out that you seem to have a slight confusion as regards the correct structure of interrogatives or sentences that ask questions, for which please consider the following: Statement: This phrase is grammatically correct Name of the part of speech each word in the above statement belongs to: This (pointing pronoun) phrase (noun) is (helping verb) grammatically (adverb) correct(adjective) Breaking the sentence into meaningful parts: 1. This phrase is 2. grammatically correct. or 1. Pronoun - helping verb - article 2. adverb - adjective Now, please note that in order to change a statement (like one we have above) into a question, only the part 1 receives the change, leaving the part 2 as it is. Therefore, the helping verb ('is' in the above case) is placed in the beginning, followed by the pronoun (this) and then the noun (phrase) leaving the rest part as it is, to turn the statement into a question. As a result, we get the following question: 'Is this phrase' 'grammatically correct' ? Moreover, I would draw your attention to the fact that the group of words your question is about is not a phrase but should rather be called sentence. Phrase: a group of words that doesn't convey a complete thought, for example: yellow cab (the two words 'yellow cab' alone fail to convey a complete thought and require more words that would say something about the yellow cab, necessitating the existence of a sentence) So, Sentence: a group of words that conveys a meaningful thought, for example: Since I don't own a car, I will have to take a yellow cab to the school. Therefore, the group of words your question is about should be referred to as a sentence as opposed to phrase. Now your answer in my opinion (though I agree to the 'flawless' suggestions by my above friends) : The use of Genetically Modified Food has been a controversial issue 'as to' whether or 'regarding' whether it provides benefits or not, for the last quarter century.
