A complete guide to English language

[Skweeky]

I can't take it anymore.
Today I was on the bus and I noticed a poster with this printed on it

' The following service's will be running ... '

So I've decided, for once and for all, I'm going to explain the use of the apostrophe.

* They are never used to make a plural
e.g 1 service, 2 services
1 kiss, 2 kisses
1 sheep, 2 sheep

* They usual point to an abbreviation:
e.g. It's a nice day = It is a nice day
There's a man at the door = There is a man at the door

* They are also used to create a possesive form
e.g Ben's toys
The dog's bone

Except when using 'it' 'her' 'our' 'yours'
e.g The bone is in its mouth

* If you are referring to a plural possesive however, the apostrophe goes AFTER the last letter
e.g The dogs' bones




Thank you

[Snee]

Thank's, that halp's.

[backlash]

Thank's, that halp's.

LOL

[thewizeard]

I was wondering about that and also felt rather shy recently, regarding their usage. The reason being; I would be ashamed to be corrected by smart foreigner especially if she be a woman! Same problem with colons and worse semi-colons; any tips? :)

[Mr JP Fugley]

Actually they don't make an abbreviation, it's a contraction.

[thewizeard]

Actually they don't make an abbreviation, it's a contraction.:O

Go on Mr. J.P. Fugley, someone must put her in her place; next she will rewrite the complete dictionary and probably call it a theasurus; and they are dangerous.

[thewizeard]

anyways there's more to the English language than a silly apocalyps!

Unless your "historical heritage" resides in your brain, however like me I am afraid it probably resides in your heart, which makes us vulnerable..


Anway the best beer in the world is brewed in Belgium..if that makes you feel any better and not to mention Bon Bons..

Oh and while we are still communicating...dont ride the Broncho..

[Skweeky]

I keep my historical heritage in a box under my bed. It gets too rowdy otherwise

[thewizeard]

Skweeky, there is more to this thread than the Scottish rule for annoying Skweeky; ie. the inappropriate use of an apostrophe. Truth be told, hubby knew you would notice that particular one, and probably used crayon to add one just before you noticed it.. Just a bit of good clean fun, call it foreplay.
So how about adding some more "completer" rules..You know, we all need it. Perhaps the method of choosing between using a semi-colon and a colon to begin with.
I always find colons distasteful and sometimes smelly too. Which makes the correct choice, difficult.

[Skweeky]

It's too hard to explain; semi-colons are an emotional thing.

If you don't understand, stay away from them.

It would be like trying to drive a TVR Tuscan Speed 12 at 150mph without knowing how to drive.

Fact

[Sextent]

The Semicolon

The semicolon is somewhere between a weak full stop and a strong comma and used to join phrases and sentences without having to use a conjunction (and, but etc.) where the phrases or sentences are thematically linked but independent.

Look at this example.

* Many great leaders; Churchill, leader of Britain during the Second World War; Alexander, the great Roman Emperor and general; and Napolean, the brilliant French general, had great strengths of character which were useful when their countries were at war but also great weaknesses which did not serve them so well in times of peace.

Notice how the semicolon works with the comma to enclose the connected phrases while the whole forms one logical sentence.

[thewizeard]

We need more of these examples Skweeky and of course Sextent. Thank you kindly. Strange those two nicks in one sentence.

They can also be used to show plurality of symbols, acronyms, digits or individual letters. An accepted rule is to use an apostrophe if the acronym, letter is lower-case, and not necessary if they are upper-case.

Hehe and we needed an American to tell us that. I felt it indiscreet to draw attention to that fact considering her motivation..which is why I added it somewhere ( in brackets) without actually pointing to it. Still Texans are known for their President Straight talk.

Anyways how about the rule if an a precedes a consonant or a vowel ? I noticed recently some interesting anomalies..

Also the i before e rule needs some clarification .

Neither, nor, either, or..all possible candidates for the completer guide.

[Hairbautt]

So is it: "Its kinda stupid" or "It's kinda stupid."

[mbucari1]

So is it: "Its kinda stupid" or "It's kinda stupid."The correct form is it's, because in actuality you are making a contraction of It is

Only four mistakes, nice try.

Quite a short one at that.

[Dr.Pretentious]

Did you mean Bunnell there?

[Mr JP Fugley]

Nope, I have no idea what that means.

[Hairbautt]

So...does a comma appear before the word 'but'?

ex. "I did everything she told me, but I ran out of time for the extra stuff."

I swear to god I've seen both and last time I did grammar was...well...its not even worth mentioning because no one concentrates on it anymore.

Least not where I'm from. :dry: True story.


I should probably pay more attention to the books I read...:dabs:

[Mr JP Fugley]

It depends.

[mbucari1]

Ewe've changed three things tho'.Yes, I did. I changed the comma after "Why" to a question mark, Capitalized the i in "it" and fixed the spelling of "sence". Those are technically three things, but I consider the capitalization of the "i" a part of changing the comma to a question mark.


So...does

I should probably pay more attention to the books I read...:dabs:Your example sentence is correct. Compound sentences join one or more independent clauses joined by a conjunction (which may or may not be preceded by comma) or a semicolon.

Ok yes, I have traded some in the past. However, if you read the comments, you will see the majority are for giveaways. So don't be too quick to judge.

BTW, why can't people spell the word "sense"?

How do you "...do too quick to judge"? That makes no sence.

What's the accountant doing in the language thread?

[Agrajag]

:noes:are you saying that I should have used "to" instead of "too"?

No, you did. Then you changed it.

[mbucari1]

are you saying that I should have used "to" instead of "too"?

No, you did. Then you changed it.It was too from the beginning. Too means excessively and is an adverb to describe the extent of "quickly". "To" on the other hand is a preposition used in many contexts, most relating to motion.

[Biggles]

What's the accountant doing in the language thread?

Hey! we communicate too....well unless we become consultants then that ability is surgically removed and a 1500 watt shite dispenser is installed.

In a recent missive from HQ, following consultancy work, we are apparently going to have a year of "optimisation", and through "upskilling" we will take the organisation to "beyond fit for purpose".

I accused them of using the Dilbert random statement generator - :unsure: although I did this on the work board which might be a bit career limiting. Hey Ho!

[Agrajag]

No, you did. Then you changed it.It was too from the beginning.

:noes:

I read it, you changed it at the same time as you changed the other part. Probably noticed the other mistake when you re-read the sentence.

It's no big deal or anything.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Hi Les, comment are you.

I spoke to someone the other day who told me she was from the "Dialogue Team". I asked her what that meant and she said "We talk to people".

I only didn't larf out loud because she sounded really sexy.

I is well - been doing a lot of DIY (the paint and window sealant kind rather than the sweaty version).

The consultancy speak is a fecking disease. The more obscure and opaque it is the higher the fees. I was sent on a course where I had to stand on a chair and surf to Beach Boys music (actually that was ok - just a bit mad and the lunch was good).

I think the Dilbert management book for dummies is a valuable piece of equipment.

It's very empowering

It's full of excellent suggestions for team building exercises.

Some of my colleagues would have acted had they known this. One did summarise the course as "complete pish". The provider, a Tony Robbins trained individual, was not entirely chuffed with this assessment and found it "challenging" :D

The food was excellent though.

Not the worst course I have ever been on - that was a two day kinetics course which I can only assume was an administration glitch. Accountants rarely drive fork lifts and move heavy boxes. I slept most of the two days.

2 independent clauses are joined by a comma and a coordinating conjunction (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so).
2 independent clauses are joined by a conjunctive adverb (however, in addition, instead, etc.) which is preceded by a semicolon and followed by a comma.
2 independent clauses are joined by a lone semicolon.Your sentence used a hybrid or types 1 and 3. One correct way to rephrase that would be to replace the semicolon with a comma.

All right, here it goes. Sorry you're feeling ill Skweeky. If you're looking for a cure, you can't go wrong with pot. Would being high be better than hungover?

[Agrajag]

Well, I've always been a little oblivious to the obvious and scrutinizing of small details.

:lol:

Did your shrink tell you to keep repeating that to yourself.

[Skweeky]

Not at all. You really must not jump to conclusions, that post you " corrected" was an otherwise failed attempt to pacify Skweeky, I thought you had probably missed that! Check Skweeky's post prior to my "erroneous" one. I really think you should be more attentive and show more understanding regarding the female psyche.Well, I've always been a little oblivious to the obvious and scrutinizing of small details. As for understanding the female psyche, I'm 20 years old. I have no interest in a relationship and haven't pursued one since I broke up with my girlfriend in high school. I have no interest in learning atm.

:mellow:

Half of the people you'll meet throughout your life will be female, it might make your life easier to try and understand some of the female psyche.

Do you want me to make a guide?
:D

As for pot...

I think my hangover is so bad because of all the charlie I had last night. For some reason it always leads me to think I can get away with mixing drinks :unsure:
Today shall be a drug/smoke/alcohol-free day:yup:

[brotherdoobie]

I'll join you in abstention. I think I coughed up a chunk of cancer, last night. (Where did I put my liver, btw? I remember washing it...)



However, I don't believe I've dried "it" out.... :dabs:


-bd :unsure:

[brotherdoobie]

something to numb me head.

* Today shall be a drug/smoke/alcohol-free day:yup:

* How boring..anyways the main reason is... that by the time charlie arrives in Glasgow.. he has been cut to at least 33.3 procent of his original Amsterdam's size ( quality) ..The problem is getting it across Hadrian's Wall.. and of course the English.

[Skweeky]

I know, my brother-in-law used to get the stuff straight off the boat ( he works in the harbour in Antwerp), you'd look at the stuff and your face would go numb...

None of that over here I'm afraid :(

[thewizeard]

The simplest way to get charlie pure and uncut to say, Edinburgh is just to blister bubble pack it..so that "they" see exactly what the stuff looks like. Never having seen proper charlie before..it will pass the customs easily.. The idea originated in Glassgow and worked!

[Skweeky]

:lol:

It would probly work

[Proper Bo]

The problem is getting it across Hadrian's Wall

:blink::blink::blink::blink::blink:

[Something Else]

How high is Hadrian's wall?? Surely someone can launch it via morter.....

[Proper Bo]

About 3 feet

[Adster]

so whats the point of the letter x skweeky?? hardly any workds start with it and if they do why not say ecs ecks... its a useless letter

[Proper Bo]

[Skweeky]

It just looks fancy and mysterious.
Imagine all the dodgy films and tv series titles we'd have without 'x'

The Ecks Files
Ecks-Men
Triple Ecks


It'd feel liking being trapped in a Terry Pratchett story.

It's because you're possible at the other side of it Bo
So it has to go past you first :lol:

[Proper Bo]

I don't touch that shite.

Normally he's impossible!!§!

[100%]

So...How do you spell "definetly" properly?

[mbucari1]

Like he said

[thewizeard]

Well three of them xxx ...is what you need to search for porn, so basically you cant do without the X..also how are you going to finish you letter to your loved one if there is no x?

[thewizeard]

Miss Skweeky..another word I think needs a little explanation. The word share. Perhaps you could explain it for our BitTorrent traders? It seems that they think that sharing means that you should get something for in return... :O

[Skweeky]

I think any such effort would be wasted upon our Bittorrent traders.
They easily seem to forget that some people are only just starting their collection
