 LanguagesAsk questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful. Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

28. Kasım 2006, 21:52:04  I have just come across the following sentence: "But for Duncan to be here he would have had to have been on the same flight as us." Is it proper English? I would say just "...he would have had to be on the same flight..." 28. Kasım 2006, 22:44:35 Konu: Re: Pedro Martínez:That's grammatically very proper English. I'm sure about it. 28. Kasım 2006, 22:50:26 Konu: Re: King Reza: I'm quite sure it is proper as well. Pedro, the way you would have said it doesn't sound quite right. BUT it is how I talk, unfortunately, my English has gotten quite laxidazical. (Love that word!) 28. Kasım 2006, 22:54:57 Konu: Re: King Reza, Rose: Thank you both. Every day one learns something new...:) 29. Kasım 2006, 02:13:14 Konu: Re: itineraries Pedro Martínez: Both sentences are correct. If there's any difference in meaning, it's very subtle. I'd be inclined to use the less wordy one unless I could think of a good reason for the perfect tense. Rose: How do you feel about the word "lackadaisical"? 29. Kasım 2006, 02:17:13 Konu: Re: itineraries KotDB: I never said my English was perfect |
