0 votedMay 3, 20172- Always be aware of the tense of the verbs in your sentence. My teachers always encouraged (past) me to do the best that I could (past) and that helped (past) me a lot. In this sentence, the verb tenses are consistent, therefore this sentence is correct. My teachers always encouraged (past) me to do the best that I can (present) and that helped (past) me a lot. The verb tenses in this sentence are inconsistent, which is incorrect. If you would like to say that your teachers still do encourage you and this helps you, this would be the correct sentence to use: My teachers encourage me to do my best, which helps me a lot. I hope this helps you! :) Let me know if you need any further explanation.0 votedMay 2, 20171
- Competent means having the necessary ability, knowledge, or skill to do something successfully. Capable means having the ability, fitness, or quality necessary to do or achieve a specified thing. Qualified means officially recognised as being trained to perform a particular job; certified. Personally, I feel that competent and capable could be interchangeable when speaking about a person who has the skills necessary to perform a job well. When looking at qualified, the person would have to have gone through some sort of training, or have a certificate or degree to prove he/she has the skills necessary. The best adjective to fit your sentence? I would say qualified because you have mentioned certificates. With so many certificates, I think he is a strong applicant and is qualified for the job. You could, of course, use any of the above words: With so many certificates, I think he is a strong applicant and will be competent in the position. With so many certificates, I think he is a strong applicant and is capable of doing the job.0 votedJanuary 18, 20170
- The first one is the most correct, although it still isn't a perfect sentence. I would rather say: I have been studying English for approximately/about a year. Remember, the use of 'have been' makes this sentence present perfect progressive tense (which describes an action that began in the past, continues in the present, and may continue into the future).0 votedJanuary 18, 20171
- In older forms of English, most conjunctions took the subjunctive; e.g. "before I be put to death", "If it be the last thing I shall ever do"... It shouldn't be 'does' because in 'Til death do us part' we are using a subjunctive. I think you should look at this phrase as an idiom more than anything else.0 votedJanuary 18, 20174
