    In this context "accounting for" means making up/equalling/totalling etc.

    Concon area of Chile
    Hi

    Is there anyone out there from the Concon area of Chile who might be able to answer a question for me? I have a relative who is ill and who is in the red de salud Christus hospital. Her family who are far away are obviously very concerned about her and positive comments from anyone who has been/knows of someone who's been in this hospital might help to give them some reassurance.

    Many thanks

    It depends on how you phrase it. You could say "The shop sells a wide range of clothes" "there is a wide range of clothes on offer". You could also say "there is a big choice of clothes" but "wide range" is better.

    Sorry, I'm going to have disagree with Nanren (no offence, I'm a kiwi myself). I still don't think that you need the word "a". If you were saying "after they buy their phone is an insurance policy" than yes, but "mobile phone cover" is more generalised and therefore the "a" isn't required.

    The first thing people look for soon after they buy their phone is mobile phone cover No need for "a"

    Both sentences may be fine but No 2 sounds a lot more natural.

    I don't think its an expression that most people would use very often. You might say "you're the one that did that" - or "you're the one who did it" - as well as being about denying it's also emphasising the point - ie by saying "the one" you're emphasising that it was the other person, rather than you.

    "We all know that it's just laziness" or "We all know it's just laziness". Both are equally fine to say - the first is just a little more formal. Most of us would say "it's" rather than the more formal "it is". Also its "laziness" not "lazyness".

    No - the phrase as you've written it doesn't make sense. You could perhaps say "there's nothing that needs doing" or "there's nothing to be done". Eg - I've finished my work, there's nothing more needs doing - I've finished the job, there's nothing else to be done - The situation is what it is - there's nothing to be done about it

    Of late, more and more customers are moving to large shopping centers and other huge forms of stores which HAS led to the closure of (THE - delete) many local retail(S - delete) shops. I personally believe that this trend is A positive evolution, despite there (are - delete) BEING some negative aspects.
