Default Re: Question Words

Wow. This would have been good if it wasn't FULL of mistakes!

1. "I have the exam tomorrow"...not incorrect, but a better way to say it would be: I have an exam tomorrow.
2. "Sam draw it"...are you speaking in the present or past here? If in the present, you forgot the third person singular s: Sam draws it...if in the past, you did not conjugate the verb correctly: Sam drew it.
3. "We are making the homework"...we can only "make" things if we actually make the physically, like make a cake or make a sandcastle. We "do" homework. This one should be: We are doing homework or We are doing our homework.
4. "Dad is cleanig..." this is a spelling mistake, it should be cleaning.
5. "My grandfather is 64 years"...we say "my grandfather is 64 years old".
