MEMO
- The following few notes are to show the relative nature of definitions, vocabulary, and grammar. To avoid cases where: lexically and grammatically, both and even all three are correct. But English learners, still wondering, that "right or wrong" should refer to the following:
a. phrase / 'freiz/ n. a group of words in a sentence. Ex.: The words 'a quiet little village' make a phrase.
b. sentence / 'sentəns/ n. a group of words that you put together to tell an idea or ask a question.
GRAMMAR:
a. Sentence concept: the form of a sentence that begins with a capital letter and ends with one of three punctuation marks: a period (.), a question mark (?), and an exclamation mark (!).
b. A sentence is a concept where any number of words can be called a sentence.
c. Thus, phrases about the title of the article, the title of a novel, a certain poem, etc., are phrases, and they can be a sentence.
___ SUMMARY: In addition, in translating Vietnamese into English, there can be two different translations. Or even if there are three different translations, understand that all three sentences are correct. Because in those translated sentences, there are different words, but it have the same meaning, and they are not wrong in grammatical structure.
BEST NEWS: Our blog is currently using free software, as we have no budget for software upgrades, such as those offered by Grammarly.com.; Because it's always interactive and warns against misspellings, punctuation, and grammatical structures. You should believe it's "right" 99% of the time, when that from Vietnamese into English. And where I used "checkmark" (☑)...that's completely right!
