Got it? Hehehe... Don't worry, there's more... We use determiners with nouns and adverbs with verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs. For example: nobody, no one, no money, no honey!! not here, not now, not funny Quote:

First, if you don't mind, we usually like to post new topics under a new thread so that others can find the answers more easily. I appreciate your cooperation and understanding! "in" denotes location (in the jar, in the car, in the tar, etc.) while "into" denotes direction AND location (walk into the room, get into the car, go into a tunnel, etc.) A good contrast exists between these two sentences: walk in the room: You are already in the room, and you are walking around inside it. walk into the room: You are outside of the room, so you need to go to the room (direction) and put yourself inside it (location). HTH!! Erin TestMagic help you before your test? Please remember to post after your test. Please? Please? |

According to BARRON TOEFL BOOK, "no" is used instead of "not any" just for short it out. "no[/b]body" means "not any body". Now I have another question to Erin. I am confused with this problem. So please help me ** The bonds holding protons neutrons and electrons [together] [in orbit] around an [atom] nucleus [are] among the strongest known to scientists. 1.together 2.in orbit 3.atom 4.are According to the answer, using "atom" in the sentence is wrong. it should be " an atom's " instead, because nucleus is a singular count noun and therefore needs a determiner. 's is a determiner. but in my opinion, we can consider "orbit nucleus" as a compound noun, and "orbit" is a noun with function of an "adjective" and modifying "nucleus". Please explain for me what i am wrong here Thanks in advance Yours trully Harbinger Edited by - harbinger on 2002 Jul 07 12:49:37 |

HI Erin, I am terribly sorry for that. I am just a new comer, so that I don't know the rule of the forum. However, please explain for me, why did you say that my nick "harbinger" sounded scary. I could not find anything scary with it, maybe I misunderstand its meaning. Thank you in advance, Yours trully, Edited by - harbinger on 2002 Jul 08 10:15:47 |
