I will get back to you on this question soon with a more detailed response.įirst of all, I would like to thank you for replying to my last comment.I hope you are having a good time and enjoing yourself at the most.Today, I have read a sentence comprised of more than fifteen words on newspaper.It includes all the information together.The sentence reads as: As you’ve probably noticed, these words are followed by the names or titles of people. In terms of your question about ‘managed by’ and ‘headed by’, your understanding of the example sentences is correct. I find that sometimes these sorts of books leave students more confused than before. Technical grammar books are difficult for most people to understand, so do not lose hope and do not be too hard on yourselves if you find grammar challenging. ESL students do not realize the many mistakes that native speakers make. Everyday, I have English speakers who were born in Canada ask me grammar questions. In terms of grammar, many people, both native and non native speakers, have difficulty. Secondly, I just wanted to remind everyone that it’s okay to make mistakes. First of all, I’d like to say that it is clear that you have studied English for a long time. I would request you to help me understand this rule citing some examples.
in our office headed by Steve Johnson.Ģ.The company has several branches spread across the city managed by different manager.Īctually mam, what I want to know is that what grammar rules words like “managed by”,”headed by” follow in the above sentences.įurthermore,how do we use them in a sentence and what’s the related grammar rule.Though, the meaning is very clear as the first sentence indicates that Steve Johnson heads the finance dept.In other words, he is the head of the finance dept.In the second case,the meaning which we can derive from the sentence is that the company has deputed enough number of employees to supervise the activities of each department it has across the city.The sentence clearly means that there is a manager posted at each branch.To be honest, I have acquired this idea as I am an engineering student and have been reading books in English for past three years. Consequently, it makes me feel bad.Sometimes, I read some sentences in my technical books whose sentence structure is not known to me rather I do not know the rules associated with them for being able to make sentences in that way.I have shown some examples of those.ġ.We have a finance dept. Moreover, I always think that what I am doing/learning/understanding is incorrect. I would like you to thank for correcting my sentences which I included in my last comment.I have understood my mistakes after reading the rectified ones corrected by you.Today, I intend to tell you something.Sometimes, I feel that it is not possible for me to learn this language properly as I can’t keep a belief in myself. I want to improve my English, but I don’t know how.
Today I was tired, so I went to bed early. I visit engvid everyday, and I love the videos on the site. Here are some more examples of this comma rule. This is the comma rule for what are called FANBOYS: For, and, nor, but, or, yet, so. Therefore, we don’t need a comma before ‘but’. If the phrase after ‘but’ cannot be its own sentence, we don’t use a comma. ‘But’ actually joins two sentences together. ‘I don’t like watching TV’ can be its own sentence because it has a subject (I) and a verb (don’t like watching. I like watching movies, but I don’t like watching TV. We use a comma before ‘but’ if the phrase (clause) after it can be its own sentence.
