  • 10. Who, which or that?

    "Who" (or "whom") refers to persons. "Which" refers to animals or things, never to persons. "That" can refer to either persons or things.

    Examples of correct usage:

    The girl who was hungry.
    The dog which bit the mailman.
    The bus that goes to the station.

    9. Anyone vs any one

    "Anyone" means "any person," not necessarily a specific person. It could refer to multiple people simultaneously.

    As two words, "any one" refers to a single person.

    Examples:

    Anyone can download my software. But a single-user software license can only be used by any one user at a time.

    8. Commonly misspelled words

    All right
    Dependable
    Independent
    Recommend
    Responsible
    Separate

    7. Don't put punctuation at the end of a URL

    While not technically an English grammatical error, don't put a period or anything immediately after a URL reference. Doing so will usually invalidate the URL. You might call this an internet grammatical rule.

    Example: Notice the lack of a period in the following sentence.

    My URL ishttp://www.kemptonsmith.com

    6. Software not softwares

    "Software" can be singular or plural. Never use "softwares."

    5. Do the quotes go after or before the period?

    Put quotation marks after a period or comma. Put quotes before a colon. Put quotes after a question mark unless the entire sentence is a question. This is a US English standard. British English usage can differ.

    Examples:

    He asked, "Are you hungry?"
    She replied, "Yes."
    Did she say, "Yes"?

    4. There, their, or they're

    "There" is used in two ways. It can specify a place. It can also be used as an expletive or empty word to start a sentence.

    "Their" is used as a possessive form of "they."

    "They're" is short for "they are."

    Examples:

    There are nine planets in the solar system.
    The two boys raced their bikes.
    They're both tired after riding so far.

    3. Overuse of Powerful

    Too many developers describe their software as, "XXX Software is powerful, easy-to-use, ... ." I searched download.com and found 2149 descriptions or titles of software containing the word "powerful."

    Powerful has several meanings, and usually refers to how effectively something is performed, as in muscular. A car with 450 horsepower is clearly more powerful than one with only 200 horsepower. But what is powerful software? If you mean feature-rich (like Adobe Photoshop), then say so. If your software does only one thing, but it does it completely or thoroughly (like CounterSpy), then say so. But please, no more powerful software.

    2. Site or sight

    A "site" is a place.

    "Sight" refers to your sense of vision; not to a web site.

    Examples:

    A web site is a place on the internet that you visit with your browser.
    A beautiful sunset is a marvelous sight.

    And, finally, the most common English blunder by web authors is:

    1. Its or It's

    The possessive form of "it" is "its," not "it's." Use "it's" only when it means "it is." Unless you can replace "it's" with "it is," use "its." Never use "its'."

    Examples:

    It's raining today.

    The dog wagged its tail.

    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    1. Third conditional

    "If I would have known about the party, I would have gone to it."

    This is INCORRECT, although commonly used, especially in American English.

    The correct form is:

    If + had + past participle, would + have + past participle

    * "If I had known about the party, I would have gone."

    This is CORRECT.

    2. Don't vs Doesn’t

    "He don’t care about me anymore."

    This is INCORRECT.

    Doesn't, does not, or does are used with the third person singular - words like he, she, and it.

    Don't, do not, or do are used for other subjects.

    * "He doesn’t care about me anymore."

    This is CORRECT.

    3. Bring vs Take

    "When we go to the party on Saturday, let’s bring a bottle of wine."

    This is INCORRECT.

    When you are viewing the movement of something from the point of arrival, use “bring”:

    * "When you come to the party, please bring a bottle of wine."

    This is CORRECT.

    When you are viewing the movement of something from the point of departure, use “take”:

    * "When we go to the party, let’s take a bottle of wine."

    This is CORRECT.

    4. Fewer vs Less

    Sign at the checkout of a supermarket: “Ten items or less”.

    This is INCORRECT.

    You can count the items, so you need to use the number word “fewer”. These nouns are countable.

    * "Ten items or fewer."

    This is CORRECT.

    If you can’t count the substance, then you should use “less”. These nouns are uncountable.

    * "You should eat less meat."

    This is CORRECT.

    5. However

    "We were supposed to go to the dance last night, however, it was cancelled because of lack of interest."


    This is INCORRECT.

    A semicolon, rather than a comma, should be used to link these two complete sentences:

    * "We were supposed to go to the dance last night; however, it was cancelled because of lack of interest."

    This is CORRECT.

    It should be noted that there ARE situations in which you can use a comma instead of a semi-colon:

    * "The match at Wimbledon, however, continued despite the bad weather."

    This is CORRECT.

    There is only one complete sentence in this example. It is not a compound sentence.

    6. Have vs Of

    "I never would of thought that he’d behave like that."

    This is INCORRECT.

    It should be would have:

    * "I never would have/would’ve thought that he’d behave like that."

    This is CORRECT.

    It’s the same for should and could:

    "He should of come with me."

    This is INCORRECT.

    * "He should have/should’ve come with me."

    This is CORRECT.

    "She could of had anything she wanted."

    This is INCORRECT.

    * "She could have had anything she wanted."

    This is CORRECT.

    7. Double negative

    "I'm not speaking to nobody in this class."
    This is INCORRECT.

    Since 'not' is a negative, you cannot use 'nobody' in this sentence:

    * "I'm not speaking to anybody in this class."

    This is CORRECT.

    8. Present perfect

    "He has took the train."

    This is INCORRECT.

    The correct form for the present perfect is:

    would + have + past participle

    * "He has taken the train."

    This is CORRECT.

    9. Went vs Gone

    "I should have went to school yesterday."

    This is INCORRECT.

    The correct form is:

    should + have + past participle

    * "I should have gone to school yesterday."

    This is CORRECT.

    10. Its vs It's

    "Its going to be sunny tomorrow."

    This is INCORRECT.

    It’s is the contraction of It is:

    * "It’s going to be sunny tomorrow."

    This is CORRECT.

    "What’s that? I can’t remember it’s name."


    This is INCORRECT.

    Its is a possessive pronoun that modifies a noun:

    * "What’s that? I can’t remember its name."

    This is CORRECT.

    "We don't need no education, we don't need no thought control"

    The fans of this band may already know that there is a sarcasm in this sentence by using negative + negative . ( saying no education but dont have enough education to even make right sentences )

    below ones are quoted

    quote:

    But the song isn;t about no needing education, but thought control;/ That is appropriate to the subject of the song. It symbolises both faults of an uneducated perspective and an over powerfull government. So yes, the grammar may be bad, but it actually makes more sense symbollically.


    quote:

    The line "We don't need no education" is grammatically incorrect. It's a double negative and really means "We need education." This could be a commentary on the quality of the schools.
