"I cant wait for 2017" or "I cant wait until 2017"

December 17, 2015

If you're waiting for the year 2017, "I can't wait for 2017" is right. In other words, if you're excited about 2017, then use "I can't wait for 2017." (It's like "I can't wait for the party!")

If you have to wait from now all the way until 2017, "I can't wait until 2017" is right. (It's like "I can't wait until noon to go to the restroom; I have to go now!")

was taken 5 years ago or is taken 5 years ago?

December 17, 2015

"Five years ago" was in the past, so it should be "It WAS taken five years ago."

What is "cookie cutter"? I heard that once on TV but I didn't really get what it means

December 17, 2015

It basically means "unoriginal" or "the same as everything else." Think of a cookie cutter: it cuts cookies in the same shape and size as all the others.

what is the meaning of 'friendzone' ?

December 17, 2015

"Friend zone" is a stupid term.

If a guy tells a female friend that he likes her romantically, but she tells him that he is "just a friend" or "like a brother," some people might say that he is in the "friend zone" or that he has been "friendzoned."

This is an offensive term. It suggests that a girl who refuses to date a male friend is evil, manipulative, or cruel. However, there is nothing wrong for a girl to want to maintain a non-romantic friendship with a guy, even if that guy is madly in love with her. (She would only be cruel if she gave him confusing signals or played with his feelings.)

The same thing is true if the genders are reversed, i.e., if a girl likes a boy but he wants to just be friends.

December 17, 2015

After LET and LETS, use the base form (bare infinitive) of the verb:

- I let her WIN. (Not "wins" or "won.") 🏆
- Will he let me GO to the party? (Not "goes" or "went.")
- He lets his sister DRIVE his car whenever she wants. (Not "drives" or "drove.")

Which one is correct? i just woke up or i just wake up?

December 17, 2015

It depends, but 99% of the time, it'll be "I just woke up."

Nan: Let's go shopping!
Henry: I just woke up. Let me take a shower first.

"I just wake up" is used like this:

Henry: What do you do when you have a nightmare?
Nan: I just wake up.

hey sr i dont understand about gerund, and infinitive. can u explain it to me with some example? thanks before🙏

December 17, 2015

A GERUND is an -ing word that looks like a verb but acts like a noun:

- SKIING is fun.
- Your SNORING kept me up all night.
- Is my SINGING bothering you?

An INFINITIVE is "to + verb":

- I like TO DANCE.
- Peter wants TO GO home.
- TO PASS the class, you need TO SCORE above 90% on the final exam.

"Seeing my mother be happy is all I hope" Is this grammatically correct ? Clarify. *why it's supposed to be "be" in the middle ?

"Seeing my mother happy is all I hope for" is right. There is no need for "be" in that sentence. (Similarly, "Seeing my mother smile" is much better than "Seeing my mother be smiling.")

how to master my english as a secondary school student ?

December 16, 2015

Unfortunately, the only answer is ... practice.

Read magazines and books. Read comic books (or translated manga) for dialogue. Try reading out loud.

Listen to English-speaking songs. (Do not listen to rap to improve your speaking skills; rap music is great for slang and vocabulary, but it generally has atrocious grammar.)

Watch English-speaking movies and TV shows. Start with easy shows (cartoons) and work up to more sophisticated ones.

Speak it constantly.

- How many PENS do you own? (Pens can be counted.)
- How many COUNTRIES have you visited? (Countries can be counted.)
- How much MONEY do I owe you? (Money is a mass noun.)
- How much OXYGEN have I wasted by being here? (Oxygen cannot be counted.)
