Re: Simple English Test! by Sanchez01: 7:41pm On Jun 21, 2016
1. Both options for #1 are wrong. You don't GIVE but GRANT leave.
2. A) I wish I were the campaign manager of PDP in the last general election.
3. A) The news of president Buhari's arrival was broadcasted yesterday.
4. B) They appeared to be talking on private matters.
5. B) He fell from the top of the house.
6. B) The subject matter of his discourse was excellent.
7. B) ) If she knew about his financial situation, she would have helped him out.
8. B) Her baby daddy has too many baggage.
9. B) B) Nothing but that would satisfy him.
10. This would definitely pass as A but the consonant 'H' in the English alphabet is the only consonant that is allowed to carry both the 'A' and the 'AN', just like the vowel 'U' can sometimes carry or tag along with the article 'A'. EG, He has A UNIQUE point of view.

If i fail to get the correct answers to all the questions, i will never forgive myself for wasting $4000 every semester.

And i might as well return my degree to the University of Florida


1. Na Hausa language be that ??

2. The available options are not grammatically correct, the first option would have been the correct answer if there is "the" before PDP. Eg.(I wish i were the campaign manager of the Democrats in the last general election.

3. A

4. B

5. B

6. A (subject is synonymous to matter.)

7. B

8. A (i know some people may disagree but i remember asking my professor the correct usage of the two and he told me baggages, the same professor that told me that i shouldn't say it's educational, it's educative is the right term.

9. A

10. A


Waiting for people who would falsify my answers

Re: Simple English Test! by MadCow1: 10:34am On Jun 22, 2016
Tooo Easy, I will rather not.


Edited.. : After so much pressure from my Fans and Former Students in Yaba Left Univeristy, I have decided to answer the test.


omonighoblessing:
This is a simple test to see how good your English.
Choose your answers by commenting either A or B for each question. I'll post the answers in the comment section later. Let's go..

1- A) If the king gives us leave, you or I may as awfully preach as they that do.
B) If the king gives us leave, you or I may as awfully preach as them that do.

Answer = A "As THEY that do" not Them that Do.

omonighoblessing:
2- A) I wish I were the campaign manager of PDP in the last general election
B) I wish I was the campaign manager of PDP in the last general election

Answer = A 'Its WERE not Was'.

omonighoblessing:
3- A) The news of president Buhari's arrival was broadcasted yesterday
B) The news of president Buhari's arrival was broadcast yesterday.

Answer is B. The past tense of broadcast is Broadcast.

omonighoblessing:
4- A) They appeared to be talking together on private affairs.
B) They appeared to be talking on private matters.

Answer A.. I am not too sure but A sounds about right to me.

omonighoblessing:
5- A) He fell down from the top of the house
B) He fell from the top of the house

Answer B.. Ofcourse when a person falls, he or she goes down. You cants 'Fall Up'.

omonighoblessing:
6- A)The subject of his discourse was excellent.
B) The subject matter of his discourse was excellent.

Answer B. Subject matter

omonighoblessing:
7- A) If she had known about his financial
situation, she would have helped him out.
B) If she knew about his financial
situation, she would have helped him out.

Answer is B This one is a bit tricky.. 'had Known' means she didn't know before but now does.. 'Knew' means she didnt know before and still doesn't. I chose be because I want to believe she still does not know.

omonighoblessing:
8- A) Her baby daddy has too many baggages
B) Her baby daddy has too many baggage

Answer B.. 'many already Quantifies the Baggage so no need to make the Baggage plural.

omonighoblessing:
9- A) Nothing else but that would satisfy him.
B) Nothing but that would satisfy him

Answer B.

omonighoblessing:
10- A) That a historian should not record trifles is perfectly true
B) That an historian should not record trifles is perfectly true


Answer EITHER is correct depending on Pronounciation. If the 'H' is silent, the 'an' is the appropriate prefix to use. If the 'H' is pronounced, then 'a' is the correct prefix to use. but if I must pick one, I will go with A Historian.

'Campaign manager of PDP' is ungrammatical.

It should be 'the PDP'.
