which one is correct : If I were his girlfriend, what I would say was............. or If I were his girlfriend, what I would say is.......... thank you 😊😊😊

January 24, 2018

The second one is better. However, most native English speakers would choose neither. Instead, they would use “If I were his girlfriend, I would say ...” or “If I were his girlfriend, I would tell him ...”

does this "Show Life You Mean Business" mean show to yourself that you are serious about your life?

January 24, 2018

You got it. It means that you are going to work hard, overcome challenges, and not give up easily when obstacles arise. 💪🏻

Hi, can I know what does it mean when someone says "I doubt so" and "I don't doubt so". What are the difference? I really don't understand this. Thank you. 💕

January 22, 2018

Hmm ... we've never heard anyone say "I doubt so" or "I don't doubt so." On the other hand, "I doubt it" and "I don't doubt it" are very common. You would say "I doubt it" if you don't think something is true. For example, if someone asked if I thought North Korea would win the next World Cup, I'd say "I doubt it." You would say "I don't doubt it" if you thought that something was possible (but you're also not 100% sure that it would happen). For example, if someone said "I think Donald Trump will be impeached," I might reply "I don't doubt it."

What does though mean and when can I use it?

January 22, 2018

"Though" means 'despite the fact that' or 'although.' You use it to show a contrast: "Though I am hungry, I won't eat anything today." "Though it's raining and cold, I will go jogging." 🌧🌬🏃🏻♂️

---

It can also mean 'even if,' as in "I will copy the book by hand, slow though that may be; it will help me learn the material."

---

It can also mean 'however': "She craves lobster for dinner. She has no money though."

A "statement of interest" sounds a lot like a "statement of purpose" (used by American schools).

is it true that when theres "dont" and "no" in a sentence, a double negative, it means "yes"? can you explain?

January 17, 2018

A double negative doesn't make it "positive"; it's just informal English. For example, "I ate barely no donuts yesterday" ("barely no" is a double negative) doesn't mean "I ate lots of donuts yesterday." 🙅🏻♀️ It's just slang for "I ate almost no donuts yesterday" or "I ate barely any donuts yesterday."

---

TL;DR: A double negative is slang/informal English. It's still a negative.

I have a sentence Ann who is a steward in coffee Bean works hard or Ann who is a steward in coffee Bean works hardly, which one is correct? Would you mind to explain?

January 17, 2018

Hmm ... you probably mean "Ann is a hard worker at Coffee Bean." (Between "Ann works hard" and "Ann works hardly," "Ann works hard" is right. It means that she works diligently.) Extra: "Ann hardly works" means "Ann rarely works."

There are some words using "up" such us build up, make up, etc. Can you explain why there is up there ?

January 09, 2018

Those are phrasal verbs. There is no real reason why "up" is included in them; it's just the way it is (kind of like idioms).

What does it mean 'if memory serves me'? And do it have any other way to say the same thing thing?

January 09, 2018

It means "If I remember correctly," which is another way to say the same thing. For example, "If memory serves me/If I remember correctly, she went to London two years ago." (You could also use "If I recall correctly.") 👍🏻

Belated happy birthday or happy belated birthday ? Im so freaking confused 😣

January 09, 2018

You'll see both all over the place, but the one that makes more logical sense is "Belated happy birthday." It means that you are wishing someone "happy birthday" belatedly. "Happy belated birthday" makes it sound like it's a happy birthday that is belated, i.e., the birthday is belated. We admins use "belated happy birthday," never "happy belated birthday."

Since it's ask.fm, you don't need to be overly formal. I suggest "OMG, I noticed it just now." If you want to be even less formal, "OMG, I just saw it now." 👌🏻

"he never fails to make me happy and cry at once" Is this sentence grammatically correct ?

November 30, 2017

It is, but it sounds awkward. "He never fails to make me happy and sad at the same time" is more idiomatic. Also, if "at once" means 'immediately,' then "He never fails to make me instantly happy or sad" would make better sense.

What do you mean, by unimaginable

November 30, 2017

It literally means 'difficult or impossible to imagine or understand.' Its synonyms include "unthinkable," "inconceivable," "indescribable," and "incredible." It is used to describe things that are either really terrible ("unimaginable pain," "unimaginable suffering," etc.) or amazing ("unimaginable joy," "unimaginable pleasure," etc.).

What is more right? I can’t believe it’s already December or I can’t believe it’s December already?

November 30, 2017

We usually put "already" after the present simple or the past simple of "be," so "I can't believe it is already December" is technically better than the other way. But if you say it to a native speaker, they won't care either way.

How to properly use don’t and doesn’t in sentences?

November 17, 2017

"Doesn't" works with he, she, it, and singular nouns:

---

- She doesn't drink coffee. ☕️
- It doesn't snow in Los Angeles.
- Peter doesn't like loud music. 🔊

---

"Don't" works with I, you, we, they, and plural nouns.

---

- I don't think it's going to rain tomorrow.
- We don't agree on many things.
- Don't they know that tomorrow is a holiday?
