Dear All, Can you tell me how i would know that I need or not to use dash to connect a prefix (e.g. re-) to a verb (e.g. open). Please refer to these: Please advise if we need to re-open the ticket or create a new one. Please advise if we need to reopen the ticket or create a new one. Many thanks. WHICH ONE IS CORRECT? 1) "The original invoice will be sent to you by mail." means "The original invoice is still with us and will be sent later ". 2. "The original invoice will send to you by mail." is incorrect because it means "the original invoice" will send something. ( Substitute "manager" for "original invoice" in the sentence and you will see what

I mean.) 3.

ADMISSION OR ADMISSIONS Dear teachers: Why do you usually say 'admissions policy/office' instead of 'admission policy/office'? Generally we do not use plural forms of noun in adjectival use. For instance, we say 'a flower garden(NOT a flowers garden)' or 'a shoe shop(NOT a shoes shop)', etc. Of course, I know we have to use plural forms when plural forms have different meanings form singular forms, such as 'arms race 'IN THE GARDEN' OR 'AT THE GARDEN' 1). The family is having a picnic in the garden. 2). The family is having a picnic at the garden. Thank you. 1. (Suppose that the garden is surrounded by a wall. In the garden means inside the wall. At the garden means outside but near the wall). I FEEL MY SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE IS/ARE AN EXCELLENT MATCH Location. USA. Posts. 10,884. Originally Posted by Tan Guat Lay.

We have no problems to work this out . This means something like. If we want to work this out, we have no problems. We have no problems about getting to work this out. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DROP AND FALL? 1). The wolf blew and blew, but the house did not drop. 2). The wolf blew and blew, but the house did not fall. Thank you.
