12/25 Assignment 10

My question:
Is this sentence's gramer wrong?
God always be with us.

My friend tells me the answer is wrong!
The "always" must put behind be verb and the verb is "is" not be.
The other one thought the answer is right, beacuse the senstence omits "May"
So...what is the correct answer?

Learning English message boards's answer by Jay* (U2975371)
If you are asking God to be with you, then the wording is fine.
You also would need a comma after God.
If that is not what you are saying then the sentence can be: God is always with us.

I make a mistake on my question. The word grammar is spelled gramer.

Message 3 - posted by SCV (U2084605) **, 3 Hours Ago
A non-believer (and perhaps even a few believers) might suggest that it is more useful to learn to spell "grammar" correctly.

YOUTOBE LINK

3 expressons :



surrender(give):to give something that is yours to someone else because you have been forced to do so or because it is necessary to do so



treasure:someone who is very helpful and valuable to you



I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment I spend with you is a moment I treasure
Don't want to close my eyes
Don't want to fall asleep'Coz I'd miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
Laying close to you
Feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God we're together
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever
Don't want to close my eyes
Don't want to fall asleep
'Coz I'd miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing
I don't want to miss one smile
I don't want to miss one kiss
I just want to be with you
Right here with you just like this
I just wanna hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And you stay here in this moment
for all the rest of timeBaby, baby
Don't want to close my eyes
Don't want to fall asleep
'Coz I'd miss you baby
And I don't wanna miss a thing
'Coz even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do
I'd still miss you baby
And I don't want to miss a thing


The lyrics is impressible to me.

The love is so valuable and God give it to us.

We love our lover,our family,our friends and each other

Google amazing search

This time I want to search"yahoo".
According to my memory,"yahoo" mean a rude person,loud and unpleasant person, especially one who lacks education from Gulliver's Travels .
It's not just a search engine.

Let's search Yahoo by google search.
When I type "Yahoo".It is all about search engine of Yahoo.
Like,Yahoo!,Yahoo! Mail: The best web-based email!,Yahoo! Directory..etc

When I type"Gulliver's Travels " .
There are all about indroduce this novel,like,Gulliver's Travels - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia,Gulliver's Travels...etc.

When I type"Gulliver's Travels +yahoo".
There is one of my anser "Yahoo (Gulliver's Travels) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"

When I type"[intex]:Gulliver's Travels yahoo".
This is what I find,"Yahoo! The word was invented by Jonathan Swift and ..."&"Gulliver's Travels: Sources of word Yahoo".

In the end,I type"define:Yahoo",and then it say...
"One of the oldest and most established directories, also one of the top 3 search engines.".
I also search up in the mid of page"A loutish male person."

I feel that the Google Search is so powerful to search something interesting.

Big&Large 10/9 Assingment 3

Is there any rule governing the use of "big" and "large"?
I think that the answer is "Yes!"
Sometime it is the same usage but it can be a lot of different to use them.

"A large of number(amount)"is more than"a number(amount) of".
You can describe how many by large .
For explame,a large sum of money ,a quantity of....etc
Yon can not describe it by big.

"The big" mean impontant.Like,my girl friend's birthday is a big day!
Big deal,Big event.....etc

Alough "large"&"big" can describe something of size,but there are a little different sometimes.
"A big hit" You can't say the quantity of hit so I think "big" is abstract.
"large-scale" is definded that product 100000 per year in manufacturing so I think "large" is concrete.

In the end,yo can say"It's big than XX".If AA is 2 kg, BB is 4 kg.
You must say "BB is large 2 kg than AA".

Quick & Fast 10/2 Assingment 2

In Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary:

2.The word"quick"is always used on someone.
Ex.

Meaning of the word Assignment 2

If I tell you a place where has a big screen,a great sound equipment,a dark room and many people in there.What's that?

The anser is movie.....theater...film...cinema...
WOW What's the different between them?

From "Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary",
when you search"movie" ,you will find many different words.

Movie: a cinema film

Theater(theatre): a building, room or outside structure with rows of seats, each row usually higher than the one in front, from which people can watch a performance or other activity

they all mean the same thing "place".
The theater is place to watch show .
The cinema only watch movie .
In a long time ago,the movie was made with film.
