Greetings and hail Shatha, it’s good to finally hear from you again there is no need to apologize regarding your late answer we all have issues to deal with in real life so it is totally understandable. There is no need to explain the question syntactically I’m going to take it very soon any way and I’m sure it won’t be a pleasant experience. Regarding grammar, I totally suck in grammar I just know the basics that’s about it, it’s just like Arabic you can speak it but you can’t explain its grammar unless your majored in it, it’s the same case with me in English I have good vocabulary and read a lot and can speak it perfectly but I can’t explain some certain grammar points which is my weak side to say the least. I’m sorry to see that no one responded to your previous participations, trust me I know how you feel. It just sucks when you put effort and time to write something and people just come and leave without saying anything what so ever but it’s just like you said, we are all here to improve our language and that’s something I’m always willing to do at any time. Thank you again for your reply, God bless you.

Hello everybody

Peace be upon you

Today I bring you very important lesson ,I think you will benefit more inshaa Allah

The lesson talk about common mistakes and confusing words in English

There you go

The difference between "accept and except "…………………and so on

accept vs except

Accept is a verb, which means to agree to take something .
For example: "I always accept good advice."
Except is a preposition or conjunction, which means not including.
For example: "I teach every day except Sunday(s)."
________________________________________
advice vs advise

Advice is a noun, which means an opinion that someone
offers you about what you should do or how you should act in a particular situation.
For example: "I need someone to give me some advice."
Advise is a verb, which means to give information and suggest types of action.
For example: "I advise everybody to be nice to their teacher."
!Often in English the noun form ends in ...ice and the verb form ends in ...ise.
________________________________________
affect vs effect

Affect and effect are two words that are commonly confused.
affect is usually a verb (action) - effect is usually a noun (thing)
Hint: If it's something you're going to do, use "affect." If it's something you've already done, use "effect."
To affect something or someone.
Meaning: to influence, act upon, or change something or someone.
For example: The noise outside affected my performance.
To have an effect on something or someone
!Note: effect is followed by the preposition on and preceded by an article (an, the)
Meaning: to have an impact on something or someone.
For example: His smile had a strange effect on me.
!Effect can also mean "the end result".
For example: The drug has many adverse side effects

Grotesque ,what do you mean by (suck in grammar) , I tried to look for it in the dictionary however what I found was completely different from your usage ,but I understood from your speech that you mean ,you dislike grammar ,and I think it's slang word ?? tell me whither I am right or wrong ,sorry but I love to know new words especially expressions since some expressions ,we can't translate them literally
and god reward you

[Grotesque]

Greetings Shatha, the meaning of “suck” is “not good” or you can say “really suck” as in “really bad” and yes it is “slang” I use slang in my speech involuntarily but I try not to use it in forum participations
.

There is no need to be sorry, feel free to ask whatever you want and I will be more than glad to help and answer your questions.

Peace be upon you
Grotesque why do you try to avoid slang words ,for me I like to know more about them especially when I participate in the international forums(I mean ,they have many people from different countries can participate in) ,I always see such these words or expressions ,and I wish to know what people mean by them ,I know it may not be useful in our studying but this is the truth , all people are used to use these words especially the ones who learn E only for communication ,they forget about standard language ,I have an idea ,write whatever you want with slang words and put their meaning between parenthesis ,it would be clear for those who don't know their meanings , so what do you think ?a

For all member

I love to give us your opinions and your comments about this thing (slang and standard )a

You will go over all difficulties that you face in writing

it's really fun

Greetings shatha and hail, I try to avoid slang cuz (because) in forums I try to write in a formal way cuz most of the time I’m all slang so I try to practice here while I can and regarding your idea, I like it a lot and ur (you’re) right everyone uses slang and I would love to help so ill start with some phrases that I know atm (at the moment) and will keep on writing everyday when I remember sumthin (something) but for now this is what I recall. I hope it’s what ur lookin (looking) for. If it is, notify me so I can put more effort into it and write more thanx (thanks) and God bless u

peace be upon you

Great job Grotesque ,you were right when you tried not to use it , in fact they would be very hard if you
don't put their meanings and some examples to be more clear ,any way thanks a lot and keep going on ,otherwise you have a right to practice the formal way because our studying requires that ,so I don't want to be obstacle in your way by asking you to write in slang way ,therefore I hope to practice more in a formal way and you can put slang word only as a lesson for those who want to benefit ,it's just like what you did ,I know I am talkative ,never mind ,regarding what I told you before about syntax ,I mentioned that syntax may be a little bit confusing ,however I hope that it will not be so for you ,for me I am interested in linguistics' branches as a result when I took syntax I felt okay (by virtue of Allah) ,it's just fun especially when you analyze the tree ,so don't worry about it ,you will see inshaa Allah.
