permanent residence is the right one.

Residence is a state of living in a particular place while resident is a person who lives or has their home there.
You're right

Jennimma:
STRESS ON POLYSYLLABIC WORDS

1. When words ends in -ic, -ion, -ing, -ous, -ial, or -ian, the stress falls on the second syllable counting from the end.
Eg: understanding => under-STAN-ing

dictatorial => dic-ta-T0-rial

dramatic => dra-MA-tic

enormous => e-NOR-mous
Notice the letters in capital? Thats the stress(counting from the end)

2. Words ending in -ity, -ate, -al, -ve are stressed in the 3rd syllable counting from the end.
Eg: fortunate => F0R-tu-nate

opportunity => op-por-TU-ni-ty

normative => NOR-ma-tive


3.For words ending with -noon, -tain, -bey, -come, -pose, -sine, stress the LAST syllable.
Eg: afternoon => after-NOON

understand => under-STAND

obey => o-BEY

entertain => enter-TAIN.

Which syllable should be stressed in the word:- entertainment?

Entertainment=> enter TAIN ment
Re: Nairaland Jamb Tutorial Centre {english Language Thread} by Martiyu(m): 1:22pm On Nov 30, 2014
Jennimma:

Entertainment=> enter TAIN ment

Does it mean that any word that ends with "ent" or "ment" will have its second syllable from the end stressed?

What will the stress be for the following words... Detriment, Detrimental, coincident, coincidental, coincidentally

I'll be glad if u'l add very concise explanation to whatever answer you'd give... Thanks prof

Goodmorning Class.

You're welcome to this wonderful thread-NJTC. If you're sitting for the up-coming exam(JAMB), you need not be afraid. We are here to help you succeed. Your only job is to read...and when I say read,i mean it. Go through your jamb past questions and answer them. Discipline yourself not to peep at the answers while reading. Get textbooks and useful materials. Burn that night candle and then back it up with prayers.
Jamb is easy and you can pass in just one sitting.

Ok,enough of the tips. Lets get down to business. You can ask questions to me or to my co-tutors-MarthaK and Naijaboiy. Please feel free.
is there a whatsapp group 4 this? Plz help!

there is no difference. They are both the same thing. Like i said earlier "shifting stress occurs on words that function both as noun and as an adjective."

Good afternoon...your questions are well appreciated.

1. If you did not offer IRK in your O'Level then which subject did you offer? I think we should start from there.

2. The subject combination for law is Government,,Use of english,,Literature and Crk/Irk

3.for government...you should read the text books you have. essential government textbook will be of great help.
For literature,,just have a wide grasp of your literary terms and learn how to answer questions from unknown stories.

4. I think jennimma has answered that

5. No idea...jamb brochure should help smiley

6. There should be a thread for that wink

You're welcome cool

CONCORD OR AGREEMENT

Concord is when grammatical elements agree with each other either in number or in person. In other words,we're looking at the relation between the number of the subject and the form taken by the verb.
1. Number Concord- the question of number concord arises only with the present tense verbs and with verb to be. Eg: he/she/it knows
we/they/I/you know

but in past tenses,it is he/she/I/we/they/you/it knew.

In the case of verb to be,we have:
{for present tense}
I am
He/She/It is
You/we/they are

{for past tense}
I was
He/she/it was
you/we/they were

The general rule is that plural subject takes plural verb and singular subject takes singular verb.

2. Notional Concord: this means an idea that is based on assumption. This concord interfere with the number concord. In other words,when the thought is of the group as a unit, then singular verb is used.
Eg. The band is playing(the group thought of as a collection of individuals)

The band have scattered(the group as a unit)

OR

The audience was large(a group)
The audience were clapping their hands(as a unit)

3. Noun Plural In Appearance But Singular In Usage.
They include news,physics, mathematics, economics, premises, headquaters, electronics etc
Eg: The school premises was dirty
The headquaters is far

{was and is are singular}
Also expressions,amount<time,money,measurement,weight> are considered singular when seen as a unit.
Eg. Three hours is enough time.
Ten thousand naira has been spent.
Three-fifth of the money was recovered.

4. Noun Singular In Appearance But Plural In Usage.
They include: the poor,the rich, livestock, sheep, cattle, lice, nice, date, etc.

Eg:The rich also cry.

The livestock belong to the Emir.

Also titles,names even when in plural form usually takes singular verb.
Eg: the adventures of Emeka has been published.

The knights of the Mulumba is sponsoring a carnival.
