ks2me:

She/He/It always wins.

I/We/They always win.

How to always win. (In this case the 'to' is the keyword ..to win..not to wins)

ks2me,
how about 'only'?
She/He/It only wins?
I/We/They only win?

or She/He/It/I/We/They only win?

TIA.

Hi,


I need help on the following 2 questions.

Q1. The ice in the glass ________ melted.
(a) has (b) have had


Q2. I ________ saved $200 over the past six months.
(a) has (b) have had

Can someone help me with the answers and why please? TIA.

[Andaiz]

Q1 has - it’s the ice, uncountable.

Q2 have - presently, your total is $200. If it was "had", it would have been in past e.g., I had saved $200 over 6 months of last year.

I love my toy parrot.

You will say toy car not car toy right?

Unless the parrot's name is Toy then it will be I love my parrot, Toy.

Hahah. English, full of rules that contradict each other.

That's what I thought and have been using all my life.

I saw the other version for the 1st time in the worksheet of my P1's English enrichement class. :?:

Hi all

My son is in P1 this year and i discovered that he is weak in grammar. Eg, during his SA2, he made a mistake on "You was …" The answer should be "You were…"
He reads a lot of books and still cannot pick up from them. He reads for story and not for grammar. What can i do to help him to improve his grammar?

Pls help

Hi favianboy
I used to teach my kids the 2 most important basic requirements in grammar first :

1. Tense
2. Agreement

Don't forget vocabulary, it is much harder to teach then grammar. I find giving spelling and fill in the blank the easiest way to teach vocab.

Good luck!
