Beyond the common knowledge
السلام عليكم
كم مرة قابلك أشياء عجبت أنك لم تكن تعلم بعضها من قبل رغم أنك متبحر في علمك؟ كم مرة رأيت في قراءاتك ما هو عجيب؟ كم مرة رددنا كلام ربنا " و فوق كل ذي علم عليم؟" رأيت إنشاء موضوع مستقل ليساهم فيه الإخوة بكل ما هو غير مشهور و غير مألوف حتي ينفع بعضنا بعضا و ان حاز الموضوع علي إعجابكم سيكون إن شاء الله فتحة خير علي الجميع .. فبيننا غزير العلم و غزير القراءة و غزير الحماسة .. ووفقك الله الجميع. قد يكون قد تم تقديم أشياء مماثلة في مواضيع متناثرة في المنتدي.. لكنكم قد توافقونني الرأي بأن وجود ذلك في مكان واحد سيكون افضل للكل. سأبدأ بأمثلة و في انتظار تفاعلكم بأشياء مشابهه: طبعا الجميع يعلم الجمع: حرف y يتحول إلي ies و يبقي كما هو إذا سبقه vowel مثل ways لكن: ماذا عن proper names: بمعني: ماهو جمع February ? و ماهو جمع Kennedy إذا أحببت أن تقول عائلة Kennedy و أحببت أن تضيف إليها The عن نفسي صادفت ذلك البارحة فقط: February في الجمع تصبح Februarys مثال: I hate Februarys جمع Kennedy هو Kennedys مثال: Do you know the Kennedys حياكم الله و في إنتظار مجهوداتكم ولا تنسونا في صالح دعائكم Sw0rdD |
الجمع بإضافة apostrophe ثم s
طبعا جميعنا يعرف الجمع بإضافة s لكن هل نعرف أن هناك جمع بإضافة apostrophe ثم s جمع letters of alphabet يتم بهذه الطريقة: مثال:. She spelt 'necessary' with two c's. أما جمع السنوات و الإختصارات فله طريقتان: I loved the 1960's. (OR ... the 1960s.) Do you think MP's do a good job? (OR ... MPs ...) المصدر للمعلومتان السابقتان: Practical English Usage حياكم الله |

You Do The Crime, You Serve The Time
Also ,We can look at the following Blog which has a research entitled : You Do The Crime, You Serve The Timehttp://brainblogger.com/2007/12/27/y...erve-the-time/ But there is a connection between Crime and Time in these titles http://gigaom.com/2010/04/14/predictive-analysis-ibm/ We must find about that !! Thank you a gain Mr Sw0rdD ,you are a genius teacher We should have a look at the following Pdf file from California State Sheriffs`association :) |

It is very common in movies and songs to find things like: I didn't do nothing |

The quote goes like this: 'If you don't do the time, don't do the crime' as if it is a slang. This doesn't make it right. I am often reminded by MacDonald's slogan: I'm loving it. This could be found in commercials, magazine ads, etc, but that doesn't make it right. I posted the dictionary entry together with the workbook page number on Longmansec site, but haven't got a response yet. However, I found it interesting discussing this with you. |
Made with
Guess we all know about the difference between "made of", "made from", made in" and "made by" but the workbook presented additional made with This is in Unit 6 page 33, ex 4 http://img828.imageshack.us/img828/9140/85434060.png This is how "Practical English Usage" stated it http://img72.imageshack.us/img72/4356/make.png Best regards Sw0rdD |
