Which of the following sentences is grammatically INCORRECT (please help)?

1. Try breaking the sentence up into "Me went to the movies over the weekend" and "My brother went to the movies over the weekend." Both of them should be correct, and if one isn't then the whole sentence isn't. The first one isn't right, it should be "I went to the movies over the weekend." Then just put them back together and it should be "My brother and I went to the movies over the weekend."

Is the following sentence grammatically correct?

It appears that either sentence may be correct, although using "were" in your sentence is generally preferred. Some answerers have stated that "none" is a singular pronoun, which is a specious argument because "none" can mean "not any" (plural) or "not one" (singular). Keep in mind that "everyone," though it ostensibly sounds like a plural pronoun, always takes a singular verb (e.g., "Everyone is here." NOT "Everyone are here.")

Some indefinite pronouns (e.g., "some," "any," "none," "all," and "most") may take either the singular or the plural verb, depending on the referents; in this case, usually the best choice is to use the singular verb when the pronoun refers to a singular word and the plural verb when the pronoun refers to a plural word, even when the noun is omitted.

Singular referent: Some of the manuscripts had merit, but NONE WAS of the caliber of last year's award winner.

Plural referent: NONE of the demographic variables that were examined WERE found to be significant risk factors.

Singular referent: SOME of my time IS spent wisely.

Plural referent: SOME of his calculations ARE difficult to follow.

For the pronoun "none" specifically, it often doesn't matter whether you use a singular or a plural verb, unless something else in the sentence determines its number. In your sentence, the word "teenagers" makes "none" a plural pronoun.

Preferred usage: NONE of the teenagers WERE wearing seat belts.

Which of the following sentences is grammatically correct?

The first sentence is correct. The second sentence is incorrect."Either" goes with "or". "Neither" goes with "nor" (like "no", "not" and "negation"; you can see the pattern, I'm sure).The neither/nor construction is now considered quite formal in English so it's hard to imagine it being used when talking about whether you want dessert.It would be more typical to say something like, "I don't want pie or ice cream", "I don't want any", "I don't want either of them" or "Neither, thank you".

Which of the following sentences is grammatically correct?

The only one that is correct is the last one (4).

2.Though a jungle gym can be a fun place to play, they can also be quite dangerous.
3.Grandpa sat in an overstuffed chair sorting old newspapers.

Which of the following sentence is/are grammatically correct?

None of them are correct. See explanation below. However, I have also mentioned the correct form of sentence.Using "free of cost" is actually wrong. Since "free of cost" isn't used isn't a standard expression", this should be either "free of charge" OR "no cost". Here is why:COST: Meaning is an amount that has to be paid or given in order to get something.Free of cost: free of the amount/money? WRONGFree of charge: RightNo cost: RightHere, anyone who is providing the card for free must have cost some amount for card. So, we can't even say that the card is provided with no cost (certain amount is expended for card by the subject).Since he is providing this card (which already cost him) to his client, which was actually chargeable for free, the correct form of sentence will beThe card is provided for free. CORRECTThe card is provided at no cost. (CORRECT but meaning wise incorrect which I have already explained above, since the card definitely have some cost)The card is provided free of charge. CORRECTThanks for A2AHope this helps. Happy grammaring. :)
