Question about English sentence.?
Hi I am not a native speaker of English and writing a report in English. I did an experiment with 3 conditions, and the result of the condition A was largest, that of the condition B was in between, and the that of the condition C was the smallest. And I wrote "the result was gradually decreased from the condition A to the condition C", but the professor made a comment on it and said that "gradually" is used for the change in a time course. In this case, how can I mention the result?

Help with English Question Sentence!?
I agree with everyone else, except that the word antecedent literally means to go before. In the sentence you present, the antecedent actually comes AFTER the pronoun! The sentence should put the noun first and the pronoun that it replaces after it. Although the house was old and needed a lot of work, Carla knew it was for her. I just wanted to mention this in case you wanted to impress (or scare) the heck out of your English teacher.
English question: How to rephrase this sentence?
If it is Phillip, one would say: Hector and Phillip get along well because of the latter's interest in sports. If it is Hector: Hector and Phillip get along well because of the former's interest in sports. It is incorrect to begin any sentence with 'because' so if you meant both you might say: 'As they share and interest in sports Hector and Phillip get along well' or 'Hector and Philip get along well because they share an interest in sports.'

Thank you Sai Kiran Tanikella for asking me to be of service.In Spanish adding ", no ?" at the end of a statement makes the sentence into a question. In English, adding ", right?" Or "isn't it?

English question!.? Grammar...?
This sentence has no direct or indirect object. I will break down the sentence for you and show you the different parts: This salsa tastes good. This(adjective) salsa(subject) tastes(verb) good(adjective). The sentence does not have any direct/indirect object because the only noun in the sentence is used as the subject. I'll give you an example of a sentence with a direct object, then one with both a direct and indirect object: Bob ate salsa. Bob(subject) ate(verb) salsa(direct object). In this sentence, salsa is the direct object, because it is the object of the verb(ate). Ask the question: "What did bob eat?" the answer will give you the direct object. Here is a sentence with both: Jill gave Bob salsa. Jill(subject) gave(verb) Bob(indirect object) salsa(direct object). In this sentence, ask your self the same type of question you did in the other sentence to figure out which one is the direct object: "What did Jill give?" You know that the direct object cannot be Bob because it would make no sense. Jill did not give Bob. She gave salsa. So salsa in the direct object. To figure out the indirect object, ask a different question: "To whom/what did Jill give salsa?" The answer is Bob. She gave salsa to Bob. So, Bob is the indirect object. You will never have an indirect object without a direct object. I hope this helped you to understand direct and indirect objects more.
In English grammar are all questions "interrogative sentences", or are questions and sentences overlapping categories?
sometimes a question is just a grunt or a lifted eyebrow. But a sentence that starts with one of the WH words, like Who What Where When , is usually an interrogative sentence.Where do you live? What do you want? When will you do that? Who stole all the cookies?So are YES-NO sentences. Do you understand?If you are not asking a question, but just saying something, then it is a DECLARATIVE sentence.It gets hot in the Sahara. I like to go swimming in the ocean. This fish smells bad.
