Fantastic thread,. I advice to make sure you give us daily lesson so that to encourage participation and continuation of the thread

Remove "advice" and put "advise" if you are talking about it as a verb.
Advice-noun
Advise-verb

 

[Tysher]

Naja naja,
We use "good in" when it is followed by a verb.
Eg. She is good in playing football.

We use "good at" when it is
followed by a noun.
Eg.She is good at football.

I'm having problems in this area 1 first person singular and plural 2 second person singular and plural 3 third person singular and plural. I normally mix them so I need your help. If I'm not mistaken grammar is centred there. One day I said loudly "I doesn't understand " people were laughing I thought I was correct but not, I should have said "I don't understand " please show me your office. See you soon

Not always the case....

What if someone says

'good in mathematics'

'good at algebraic expressions'

.....what i can say is.... IN is used when referring generally AT when specific....

But you are right somehow..

Might is when we are not sure of something..

May .... Used in polite expressions.... When referring to possible expressions..

Pretty one...I had nothing to say but I wanna suggest at this platform to have an error correctors who are coppetent in english so as to correct incorrect sentenses

I find your comment wrong somehow.,so I am going to correct you from the little knowledge i have

Official Language in our country is British English and not American one,that being a case "want" should replace your "wanna"

Write "competent" instead of "coppetent"
Also "sentences" not "sentenses"

That's all!I stand to be corrected

Your comment could be read this way to sound better "Thank you,I have learned something here

Don't put all eggs on one basket"

If you want to be good at any language especially in writing, have a habit of proofreading before communicating your ideas to others.

Incorrect- The Secretary and Principal are coming.
Correct- The Secretary and Principal is coming.

Is correct to say time out,for meaning of time is over,especially when you want to collect examinations from your students?
