nairalanddotorg: I.T.K. You also made a mistake. It should be "maybe practicing Nursing would be. .." and not "maybe practice Nursing...." A$$ H©L£ No man is an island of knowledge. You should have corrected him with decorum. Practice is a noun in British English, thus practicing is non-existent. It should be practising. |

That's by the way. One problem with No. 6 is that the use of 'Did' as in a question. Since one isn't sure of the answer, expressing the main verb as 'past tense' doesn't make sense since it appears as if one already has knowledge of what he is asking after. In this case, it becomes a redundant question. |

Rapmoney: When people say someone is 'smarting', does it mean they are talking about the skin? You need to be serious. You said there's no such verb as smart. |
Education › Re: 10 English Sentences That Can Make You Appear As A 'Quarter-Baked' Graduate by DesChyko: 11:27am On May 02, 2016 |
Lol.. I take it you don't read much novels. Smarting is also a verb. It's a reaction of a person or the skin to a sharp pain like a whip. |

fiizznation: Furthermore, I was able to identify the major grazing fields for the Fulani cattle in Nigeria. And the southeast is not on that list, meaning Fulani herdsmen rarely take their cows to the eastern part of this country. How many South-Eastern states have you visited? If none, then I'm sorry. A mere map cannot give you the intelligence you need. This is Nigeria, not the U.S.A. How many of our Local Governments (774 in all) have a concise map on the internet? It isn't a matter of challenging anyone to start tracking and taking pictures to clarify your personal doubts. I believe anyone interested in such should have mapped out their region properly on the internet. Or better still, you take a road trip and prepare a journal. It's always easier to doubt when you're not on the wrong end of a gun. |
