Usage Notes
COMMON LERNER ERROR
| can, could or may? |
| Can is used in standard spoken English when asking for permission. Could is slightly more formal. Both of these are acceptable in most forms of written English, although in very formal writing, such as official instructions, may is usually used instead. |
| Persons under 14 unaccompanied by an adult may not enter. |
COMMON LERNER ERROR
| may be or maybe? |
| May be is written as two separate words when may is used as a modal verb and be is used as a verb. |
| I may be late this evening. |
| I maybe late this evening. (wrong) |
| Maybe is an adverb, and is written as one word. |
| Maybe we should do it tomorrow. |
| May be we should do it tomorrow. (wrong) |
Every Human Being MUST watch this video
Nick Vujicic and his attitude serve as a great examples of the celebration of life over limitations.
The human spirit can handle much more than we realize.
"I LOVE LIVING LIFE. I AM HAPPY."... See More
----------------------------------------------------------------
Think you've got it bad?
Need some encouragement?
Fallen down?
Can't find the STRENGTH to get back up?
Watch this video. It will help. Then share it with others.
----------------------------------------------------------------
"If I fail, I try again, and again, and again..."
If YOU fail, are YOU going to try again?
It matters how you're going to FINISH...
Are you going to finish STRONG?
We are put in situations to build our character... not destroy us.
The tensions in our life are there to strengthen our convictions... not to run over us.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Nick is thankful for what he HAS.
He's not bitter for what he does NOT have.
I have never met a bitter person who was thankful.
I have never met a thankful person who was bitter.
In life you have a choice: Bitter or BETTER?

yes this is not the End!! Never GIVE UP
