    I do not allow updating email and username through PUT API, because I think it should be persistent from when the user creates an account. You were almost there. You cannot say "it should persistent" You can say: It should persist Or It should be persistent

    As a rule of thumb, "Might" is used for more hypothetical situations, or things that are remotely possible. May on the other hand, is used for situations that are more factual, or could be factual. So, the correct sentence would be "May we suggest going to a restaurant instead?" Since suggesting a restaurant is not a hypothetical situation. Okay now, we could make it into a hypothetical, as such: If I was to win the lottery, might we suggest going to a restaurant? Since winning the lottery, is a hypothetical situation, we used might. There are a lot more distinctions, with might and may, which I will shortly list: - Might is the past tense of May. Example: I may go to the movies today. I might have went to the movies, yesterday. The last distinction is when asking for permission, we use may more than might, but they can be used interchangeably: Example: May I go to the shop? Might I go to the shop? For an english speaker, reading those two, the version with may sounds natural, while the other does not.They are both correct.

    Hi, This is a very good question. I have not read, the article. However, the only reason why one would not say "New experience" is context. Example: Imagine, your cinema has just introduced 3D glasses. They write an advertisement that says this: 3D Glasses will bring a new experience to watching movies. I could also say: Normally, we would watch movies with popcorn, now with 3D glasses, we can bring something different to the whole experience. Both sentences convey the same message. However in the first, we are saying that 3D glasses alone, will bring a new experience to watching movies. In the second, we are saying that 3D glasses will add to the experience of watching movies. Which one is correct? It all depends on the context. In my opinion, I think that 3D glasses only add to the experience of watching movies. Some people may disagree, and say that the 3D glasses themselves are so ingenious, that they create a whole new experience, so different from watching movies without them. In your case, the author believes that the fillers by themselves, do not add a new experience, they simply contribute to the overall experience, that was already present.

    3.


    For Number one to make a bit more sense, we could re-arrange it as follows: "for unfamiliar people to show kindness, music is a friendly language"

    Number two ends the sentence with a preposition, and although some schools do tell us to not, end our sentences with pre-positions, it is common within the english language. The result of moving the preposition from the end of the sentence, is a new over-formal sentence. This can be seen with number 3.


    Another example:

    "Who were you talking with?" - > "With whom were you talking"

    It would be, "I live on Oxford Street" as you cannot live inside of a street. You can live inside of a place however, so "I live in Oxford" would be correct.
