What is the difference between ''he was here'' and ''he was there''?

Naomid

No Idea%

Sir-Phil

The difference is just the letter "T"

Mr Paul

Add necessary puntuation marks to the below statements and make corrections where necessary.
"Its time for me to be celebrated, I am born to rule."

pecable

"Its time 4 me 2 be celebrated,i was born 2 rule"
de word "am" was replaced wit "was" cuz he is not a new born baby!!

Sir-Phil

It's time for me to be celebrated, I was born to rule.

Its -> It's
Am -> Was

Mr Paul

@pecable, the first thing to take note of is that, it's wrong to use letters for words (as in 4=for; 2=to et c), as this is real English Grammar.
Second, "I am born" is correct, because its used as simple present form. Another example of this is "I am done with your work".
@Sir-Phil, there are only two areas of amendment:
1. " Its " should be written as " It's " (you got that correctly).
2. Comma( , ) should not be used but semi-column ( ; ), because, the pulse is longer than the use of comma.
The two statements should be-
" It's time for me to be celebrated; I am born to rule. "

pecable

Thank you for the correction @sam7

Mr Paul

@pecable, you're welcome and thanks for understanding.

Sir-Phil

Who can clearvy state the difference between a Clause and a Phrase?

Panchaze

The difference is that clause has a subject and a verb and can make a meaningful thought whereas phrase does not have and cannot make a meaningful thought because it is incomplete.

Sir-Phil

Yes... I would have loved to see an example each of a Clause and a Phrase respectively.

Panchaze

(He gained it) is an independent clause whereas (after trying it for many times) is a phrase. Let me make a sentence with the two. He gained it after trying for many times. I hope i'm correct.

TERA

II HAVE NEVER TRIED BOTH OF THEM 2GETHER, BUT I THINK U ARE CORRECT.

Panchaze

TERA:
II HAVE NEVER TRIED BOTH OF THEM 2GETHER, BUT I THINK U ARE CORRECT.

Thanks Tera

TERA

UR WELCOME

Sir-Phil

Then I would proudly say without appologies that a combination of the two inarguerably becomes a complete sentence.

Mr Paul

"If you dont let him go; his people will come and meet you."
Two things to be done on the above sentence:
1. Make corrections where necessary.
2. Divide it into a clause and a phrase.

Sir-Phil

The Semi-colon there should simply be a comma coz the pulse isn't that strong. Then, the last statement should rather, be: His people will come for you.

Mr Paul

Yes, you got number one right; but you didnt divide it to clause and phrase.

Sir-Phil

If you dont let him go, (Phrase)
His people will come for you. (Clause)

Mr Paul

@Sir-phil, Clap for yourself !!!!
Spottykay, give him a round of applause.
