Is this sentence grammatically correct? "NW should fix their server list by removing the current in-game server name in order to avoid confusion when we want to choose a new server."
It’s grammatically correct, but confusing and unclear. At the very least it needs some internal punctuation, but it would be better being split into two sentences.NW should fix their server list, by removing the current in-game server name, in order to avoid confusion when we want to choose a new server.NW should fix their server list by removing the current in-game server name. This would avoid confusion when we want to choose a new server.
Does the sentence "Is your problem fixed yet?" sound correct and OK in English?
I'm inclined to choose the second sentenceHas your problem been fixed yet?Or, the first sentence without the ‘yet’.Is your problem fixed?You use the present prefect form in a question when you're asking about an event that (may have) occurred in the past, from the current context. Here the ‘yet’ at the end of the question means ‘now’ or ‘at this time’. Even if you skipped that word it would still be implied if you are using has been.In contrast, the is can be used for a general inquiry, like when you are fairly confident that the problem must have been fixed in that interval of time. There is no context of present in this case so the ‘yet’ is neither implied nor should be mentioned explicitly.However, even if you used is instead of has been it wouldn't sound wrong in common parlance.P.S: if David is American I suppose issue would sound more natural to his ears as opposed to problem.Edit:It was pointed out that I may have implied that is can be used as short for has been. That is certainly not what I meant.
Does this sentence make sense? If not can you help me fix it? (Sentence is in parentheses)?
I would phrase it as "Make pleasant conversation" rather than "Talk friendly pleasantries" And if there is more than one panelist (which is implied by introductions and names), it's panelists' (plural possessive), not panelist's (singular possessive).
What makes a grammatically correct sentence?
A grammatically correct sentence is one that has clarity and holds to convention unless it makes example of breaking it.Sometimes grammar is obeyed to demonstrate how new terminology breaks down in the final analysis or how old terminology was originally expressed ingrammatically to incur change in dealing with it.One is free in writing to ellicit fresh literary devices to invite wider perspective or dispell cliche'd notions . Business before pleasure is acorruption of the wish, " May your business be for your pleasure as well""God bless you" sounds like a command of a wizard who may soon sneeze, but " May God bless you" identifies the idea of hope which is comfort to know another holds.
Is this sentence correct, "Once it's done I will update you"?
It is not necessarily wrong…just harsh.“Once” is the difficult word in this sentence. The ear favors a different word with the same meaning. EX: “When”, “After” or a combination such as, “As soon as” or “The second/minute”.Compare the two sentences:“Once it’s done I will update you.”vs.“When it’s done I will update you.”or better yet…“I will update you, when it’s done.”As a thought on the subject of Once vs. When or (Other possible conjunction), Once is a word that best refers to a past action more so than a future action, and more specifically at times, a single moment in time.As in…Once upon a time, in a land far far away.orShe was once the most respected woman in Hollywood.To illustrate this with your sentence…“I will update you, once it’s done.” - It is not a past event and we do not know the exact moment in time that the event will occur. So we us (when) in place of (once). When implies some uncertainty to the moment in time but does not weaken the sentence at all.There is a substantial amount of leeway in any case but as a good rule of thumb, if it sounds awkward when you read it back, it probably is and you may want to replace it with a nicer sounding word with the same meaning, check punctuation or rearrange the sentence slightly.Hope this helps.James
Is this sentence grammatically correct? “People might have no place to shelter from mother nature if million of homes are flooded leaving countless people homeless and lost their belongings.”
Original question:“I will get banned if I said that.”Shouldn't it be would instead of will?Most of the answerers are close (but no cigar) to the correct answers. The MOST USUAL meanings of the sentence should be parallel constructions either in the future tense1. I will get banned if I say that.or in the conditional tense:2. I would get banned if I said that.Explanations:1. If, in the future, I say that, then, when or after I say that, I will get banned. By being in the future tense, this implies that I have not been banned (in the past), and that I haven't said that, or at least haven't been caught (in the past). This may apply to a new rule, only now taking effect for the future, or it may apply to a rule that I haven't yet broken (or been caught breaking).2. If I said that, then I would get banned. This focuses on the conditional aspect rather than the time. Depending on the context of the sentence, it *could* imply that I haven't been banned yet, and thus haven't said it, and so is equivalent to #1. Or, it could be discussing the conditions in the past, "When I played football, I would get banned if I said that to the ref. But I don't play football any more."HOWEVER, Charles Clack has correctly identified a circumstance in which the construction would be correct as asked!3. I will get banned if I said that.I have not yet been banned. I may or may not have said that, and I'm not telling you whether I did or not. But - assuming they catch those who say that, if I did (in the past) say that, then (in the future) I will be banned.It's not the most common usage, but it is perfectly valid.
Grammar HELP!!!! Fix this sentence plz!!!!?
I don't think you should use acclimate, which specifically mentions getting accustomed to a new climate. I think "assimilate" is better diction. 1. to take in and incorporate as one's own; absorb: He assimilated many new experiences on his European trip. 2. to bring into conformity with the customs, attitudes, etc., of a group, nation, or the like; adapt or adjust: to assimilate the new immigrants.
Is this sentence correct? "If my question is grammatically wrong please correct it ?"?
No.Here are some suggestions to consider that can fix and improve your sentence:Your version is not asking a question, merely making a request. So remove the question mark at the end of your sentence.Add a comma immediately after the word "wrong".Remove the single space after the word "it".Ideally, avoiding using the word "it". Below is an alternative sentence you could use:"If my question is grammatically incorrect, please edit to fix the errors."
