what's the difference between noon, afternoon, and evening?

November 08, 2015

"Noon" is literally 12 PM. "Afternoon" is roughly between 12 pm and 6 pm. "Evening" is roughly from 6 pm to bedtime. These are not exact, except for "noon." Think of "evening" as night and "afternoon" as any time between 12 PM and night.

which one is correct, 'is there any problem?' or 'are there any problem?' thankyou in advance

November 08, 2015

"IS there any PROBLEM he can't solve?" ("Is" is singular; "problem" is singular.) "ARE there any PROBLEMS he can't solve?" ("Are" is plural; "problems" is plural.)

When should i use "dont worry" and "no worries"? Are they same?

November 04, 2015

"No worries" is something we say when someone apologizes. It means "Don't worry about it" or "It's not a problem":

---

Henry: Sorry for eating your burrito.
Peter: No worries. I already ate lunch.

---

"Don't worry" is something you tell someone when they're feeling scared, nervous, or anxious. It's an expression of encouragement:

---

Henry: I think I lost my wallet. 😰
Nan: Don't worry. I'm sure you'll find it soon.

Difference of "worse" and "worst" and give examples please. Thanks.

November 04, 2015

BAD → WORSE → WORST

---

- Nan is BAD at tennis.
- Peter is WORSE than Nan: he can barely hit the ball.
- Henry is the WORST: he doesn't even know how to hold a racquet.

i have studied in NY for 3 years or i had studied in NY for 3 years ?

November 04, 2015

It depends. If you are still studying in New York, then "I have studied in New York for three years" is right. If you are no longer studying in New York (for example, because you moved somewhere else), then "I had studied in New York for three years before I moved to London" (or something like that) would be right.

November 04, 2015

You would only say "I do love you" if someone claimed that you didn't or asked if you did:

---

Nan: You don't love me.
Henry: What are you talking about?! I do love you!

---

Nan: Do you love me?
Henry: Yes, I do love you.

is "french" on "french fries" a noun in part of speech?

November 04, 2015

"French fries" is a two-word noun. It would be weird to say that "French" is functioning as an adjective because we don't have "German fries" or "Chinese fries." If we did, then "French" would be an adjective in "French fries." 🍟

Why is it "God bless you" not "God blesses you"?

November 04, 2015

When we say "God bless you" after someone sneezes, we're actually saying "(May) God bless you." When we say "God blesses you," we're declaring for a fact that God is blessing that person. Unless you were a priest or other religious authority, it would be strange to say it.

i had had breakfast. can you please explain for me the usage of what for having the double had?

November 04, 2015

There's nothing special about "had had" (other than that it sounds repetitive). The past perfect tense is formed with HAD + past participle. In "had had," it just happens that the past participle is that of the verb "have." In terms of meaning, it's the same as "had eaten" or "had finished."

---

- I had eaten breakfast before she came to pick me up.
- I had finished breakfast by the time school started.

"don't belong to no city, don't belong to no man" what does this mean? im quite confused with negations

November 03, 2015

One problem with that statement is that it uses two sets of double negatives (Don't belong / no city; don't belong / no man." (In formal writing, it should be "Don't belong to ANY city; don't belong to ANY man.")
