Silver Slowly, silently, now the moon Walks the night in her silver shoon; This way, and that, she peers, and sees Silver fruit upon silver trees; One by one the casements catch Her beams beneath the silvery thatch; Couched in his kennel, like a log, With paws of silver sleeps the dog; From their shadowy cote the white breasts peep Of doves in silver feathered sleep A harvest mouse goes scampering by, With silver claws, and silver eye; And moveless fish in the water gleam, By silver reeds in a silver stream

Tom ist eine Katze und versucht immer Jerry die Maus zu erwischen. Jerry ist aber eine clevere Maus, sodass es für Tom schwierig ist die Maus zu fangen. Man bekommt beim anschauen das Gefühl, dass Jerry es genießt Tom ein wenig an der Nase herum zu führen.

1 is b. interessanter als. 3 is D. schlechter als. Sometimes you hear in german schlechter wie, but it isn't good german. In german you mostly use als not wie. 4 A but I would prefer. Ich male lieber, als das ich lese.

thank you very much :)

ok, I correct the sentences. 3. Many would-be shoppers are put off by the freezing conditions. 6. The windows on nearby buildings were blew by the force of the explosion 7. Several buildings were damaged by the high winds 9. The sea wall was completely washed away by unusally high tide. Is it so better??

sorry, but I don't know what to change... can you give me a hint?

I wouldn't change something by 1 and 2. 3. You might be taller, but I can jump higher. 4. I may can open the window? 5. I couldn't care less what you say! is it better that way?

I'm so stupid, so it will be: The windows on nearby buildings were blown by the force of the explosion. I just forgotten that the past form of blew is blown... Thank you both!

So 1 & 2 are correct? and 4. without can? is it just "May I open the window?" ?

Yes, my first language is German. But I want study english.. so I think this was a beginner fault...

I don't know... Is Can I carry that for you better?? Even better as shall I carry that you?

Thank you!

thanks again!

in a grammar book. It's a bullet point I think. So not a real sentences.

I found the rule that national adjectives end with -ese; -ch; -sh; -ss goes with the, it's in my grammar book that way, and now I'm lconfused wether there are some without the.

So I can't say - The Americans are good in football. - I have to say - Americans are good in football. - ? But these aren't adjectives, aren't they?

That is what confused me so. In my question I posted what my grammar book says, with the Examples. Are the explanation totaly right?

Ok I get this. But French wine is usually excellent wouldn't be right after the explanation. It has to be The French wine is usually excellent. Am I right?

So the rule that stands in my grammar book is not totally right. I can say The Amaricans are good at football even if there isn't one of the suffix that stands in my grammar book.

I have to explain these to my classmates, so it will be better I understand it... And my grammar book confused me a lot...

So I just want to tell them that way. But why are they writing something like that in a Grammar book? Then it would be better they didn't write anything, or like by mountains they say, mountains vary. It's clear, you have to learn, or look it up.

we are all advanced learners, so we do most things automatically, and then to explain something is so difficult.. I will do my best but the rule in the book still confuse me.

I thank you very much! You really helped me I'm still confused but it is better. If an other big problem come up with articles I will wirte it again.

But it is sure, that I can use "the" with more nationalties then these with the suffix I write above?!

The French drink a lot of wine. The Americans are frindly people. The Germans always eat Weisswurst. The Iraquis live in a warm land. And all these sentence can go without "the", right?

Ok, as I write the first sentence, I had the feeling, it can't go without. I thank you again very much!

Thanks, but I know this already. Now I really need a sentensence with a lot The/a/an in it. And I don't get one... Can you give me a sentences?

Yeah it was really cool, I just had known everything. ;) And what I don't know so well, I tried to explain and my teacher helped a little. Now I just have to practise my speaking skills. :)

This don't really help me. Our example was: People gave the right information to the President. We prove that to the president is a complement because: it denotes a participant of the giving-event, it cannot be replaced by an adjective or a bare noun, or a pronoun in the nominative and that it does not correspond to the subject of an associated passive clause. But one session befor we said that 1) complements but not Objects can be expressed by adjectives or a bare noun. 2) That Objects but not complements correspond to the subject of an associated passive clause. What is true?

I can't send you the link from my professor... That's to bad, maybe I wirte something wrong or so.. You could have a look there...

Yeah, I see. But on his shetts it really is People gave the right information to the president. And then he prove that to the President is a complement by the way I tell you above... I don't understand it

Yes, in German the order of words can change the meaning. I found an other example, maybe you can exlain it to me? "I had never confessed to her my role in forging the first link in the recent chain of tragic events." TASK: Prove that TO HER is not indirect object but complement.

So you say it isn't a complement? Can you give me a definition of complement?

The Problem is that my professor, tell me the things an other way then do it... And know I don't know what I shall write friday on the quizz... I will look all the things up again and tell you then, whether I find something that makes all clear. Thank so much so far. You are always a help for me.

Write a word phrase for p+10

Er musste gesungen ist incorrect. Gesungen is in the wrong form for the person Er

I don't understand you question.

correct

Ok, so am i right, that in standart english is ne negativ concord? My teacher told me to explain who to build negativ concord. As i see in the link you gave me it is so that negativ concord occurs mostly with don't, aren't and something like that, in some english dialects, right?

So negativ concord is the same as duoble negation?

Correct you can say so in german.

Ok, thank you

The explanation reiny gives is perfect!

Ok, We liked to plan the game, and one of the childs asked what the mesining of it is... Thank you

Yeah, and is my grammar and writing all right? I need a handout for my class and don't want to have mistakes in it..

Sorry I am realy late with it and need an answer...

It is incorrect. Correct is Die Wellen sind sehr groß geworden. You choose the wrong verb form.

please, only this time, can you correct it?

I*m a good girl :) Is it good this way? - Means that there must be more than one negative word in a sentences - Can be find in some languages like French, Spanish or Russian -> French: Je na vais nulle part. I’m not going nowhere -> I’m not going anywhere -> Spanish: No he visto nada. I don’t see nothing -> I don’t see anything - Mostly the same in English and German -> I haven’t seen nothing German: Ich habe nicht nichts gesehen. -> understand as: Ich habe etwas gesehen That is why we say I haven’t seen anything - Mostly negative concord seems non Standard English! -> But it is common in dialects -> Is standard when we say: I saw neither Kim nor Pat

I thank you both sooo much! Then,it will be all good tomorrow! And now.i need sleep. Thanks again!

thanks and now the next paragraph :) Data Analysis Now we wanted to answer the research questions. We will have a closer look to the complements and try to find answers why which verb take which complement. Conclusion: The verb to smell took mostly Nounphrases ( [1] 34 times). 9 times we found an Adjective Phrase [2], 4 times a Prepositional Phrase [3] and one time a wh-clause complement [4], a ing-participle clause [5] and also one time without an complement [6]. We did not found the verb to smell with that- clause complement in the BNC but nethertheless you can use the verb to smell with one [7]. [1] I could smell smoke and hear the most terrible screams. [2] But the Recycling Rose does not always smell sweet [...] [3] […] she was afraid her new dress might soon smell of sweat like the old one. [4] […] so that you can experience in sight, sound and smell exactly what it was like to live and work in [5] You could smell rubber burning. [6] Mind you, he doesn't smell -- he must have got somewhere he can go for a bath at least once. [7] I smell that you are baking a cake.

Thanks :) and the next The verb to look took most frequently a Prepositional Phrase namely 38 times [1], it took ten times an adjective Phrase [2] and it was found one time with a that clause without that complement [3] and also one time without a complement [4]. The word look was often used as a noun in the example sentences of the BNC. [1] I look after her madam! [2] [...] I think I never saw her look better in my life. [3] Very well. Follow that lord, and look you mock him not. [4] Oh. I didn't look.

I do have it in italics in my word text programm. But thanks for remeber me. With the sentence I mean that I found to look one time with a that clause where the that does not occur. So we call them that without that - clause complement. Do you understand it now?

exactly that is what I meant. So can it stand the way I wrote it?

next paragraph: The verb to see took that most different complements. We found 7 different complements, and see was never used as a noun in the example sentences of the BNC. The verb to see took 34 times a Noun Phrase like the verb to smell did. To see took two times a prepositional phrase [2]. It was the verb that took the most subordinate clause complements (that clause without that [3] three times, that clause [4] seven times, wh - clause [5] two times, ing - participle clause [6] one time and also one time an if - clause [7]. [1] I'll see you later. [2] We tried to see into it, and wondered what horrible thing would appear [3] You see as great as her spirit is, she can't bear that. [4] Helen could see that Carl's face was very white and there was blood on his mouth [5] I don't see why we have to be so careful?' [6] She looked up, to see him smiling at her. [7] The list of journals was examined by date of publication, to see if there were any trends in journals [...]

ok thank you.

Conclusion In this conclusion we will summarize the similarities and differences of the verbs of perception. Table 2 can give a first overview of the different complements. You can see that although the verbs are semantically similar they are different in their complementation. To smell and to see shows variation in use, whereas the verb to look has the biggest number in use as a noun. We don’t found the verb to see without complementation. That is the case because to see is a transitive verb. That means that it need an Object. To smell can be used transitive and intransitive. We don’t find to look with a Noun Phrase. That is the case because to look is a verb that is most used intransitive that means that it can’t take an object and Noun Phrases mostly occurs Objects. To smell and to see takes the some numbers of Noun Phrases. To look takes 38 times a Prepositional Phrase. To look and to see took them together only 6 times.

and the last part: To see is in our search never found with an Adjective Phrase, whereas to smell and to look took nearly the same number of Adjective Phrases (see Table 2). We don’t found many subordinate clause complements in our research for the three verbs. To look only took one time a subordinate clause complement, to smell two times and the most subordinate clause complements took the verb to see with 14 times. To see was also the only verb that took a that clause complement and an if clause complement.

Thank you so much!! And it would be great if you can delete now this tread :) Thanks, Thanks, Thanks!!
