Ophiolite Posted October 23, 2004 Share Posted October 23, 2004 sorry i thought you put oxford quick look any way i said that they went to oxford and cambridge so why did you have to say they all went to oxford and cambridge, even though i just said that when i said some went to oxford and some went to cambridge that generaly means all the monty python group'Some went to Oxford' and 'some went to Cambridge', does not exclude the possibility that some didn't go to either. Bloodhound was seeking to clarify this ambiguity. Since this is a thread on improving one's english it seems a reasonable, and important, clarification to make. Still, we are all agreed - Monty Python, pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ophiolite Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 "pretty good" is probably the understatment of the century. but the brits have a way with understatements..It allows us to have something in reserve when we wish to really make a point.

coquina Posted January 28, 2005 Share Posted January 28, 2005 If you are asking someone a question, your voice goes up at the end. If you are reading English, you pause slightly after a comma (,) You pause more after a period. (.) Here is a link to Merriam Webster Online. I typed in the word "phonetics" which means how a word is pronounced. If you click on the red microphone, you can hear it spoken. This won't help you with entire sentences, but maybe it will help with individual words. http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionary?book=Dictionary&va=phonetics&x=11&y=20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
