difference between "," he said. " ." and " ," he said, " ."

“I was thinking,” she said, “that maybe you could teach me.” - (here after "said" if you put comma, in double quotation, the first letter should not be capitalized  )

“I was thinking,” she said. “That maybe you could teach me.” - (here after "said" if you put period, in double quotation, the first letter should be capitalized )

If the dialog tag is in the middle of a character speaking, then the dialog is not capitalized after the tag unless it starts a new sentence.  For example:

“I was thinking,” she said, “that maybe you could teach me.” [RIGHT]

“I was thinking,” she said, “That maybe you could teach me.” [WRONG]

“I love that dog,” she said. “He’s so cute.” [RIGHT]

“I love that dog,” she said, “he’s so cute.” [WRONG]

difference between the same as or the same with

the same as - ()
the same with - ()

"the same with" and "the same as"

(I know they have different meaning and usage by looking up dictionary and google it. But I am still not clear at their different, and in what situation I should use which one.

I was told that, "the same with" could be explained as the "the same situations with " like following sentence:

"John did not go to school today" "It is same with Mary"


As to "the same as" , it could be explained as " the same thing as", like:

"I have the same dreams as you")

difference between 'as well as' and 'and'

She is clever as well as beautiful - (it means she is beautiful and she is also clever - but in this situation people already know she is beautiful because the speaker used 'the clever' to tell the people that is not mentioned before)

She is clever and beautiful - (she is both clever and beautiful. here people don't know she is both clever and beautiful. they heard first time when speaker said it)

As well as has a similar meaning to not only … but also.

• She is clever as well as beautiful. (= She is not only beautiful, but also clever.)

Note that as well as introduces information which is already known to the listener/ reader; the rest of the sentence gives new information.

“as well” instead of “and”

(In my university publications, I notice that many enumerations use "as well" [1] instead of "and" [2]. Is this just to make the text look more sophisticated or is there a real semantic difference? When should I use one or the other?

[1] "The algorithm can process text as well as binary files."

[2] "The algorithm can process text and binary files.")

difference between 'i have gotta go' and 'i gotta go'

i have gotta go (Both "I've gotta go." and "I gotta go." are just the way that people speak sometimes, and they mean the exact same thing.)

i gotta go(Both "I've gotta go." and "I gotta go." are just the way that people speak sometimes, and they mean the exact same thing.)

I've gotta go, I gotta go

(While I am watching American TV series, I sometimes see a sentence; I’ve gotta go.

But, sometimes an actor says “I gotta go” instead of “I've gotta go”

Is there any difference between those things??)

difference between 'between she and me' and 'between her and me'

'between she and me' (wrong)

'between her and me'(Correct)between” is a preposition. That means it starts a prepositional phrase. For instance: I got a flat tire between here and the office. “Between here and the office” is the phrase. Prepositions are followed by “objects. Never “subjects. And say… between her and me

Grammar Guide: Why "Between You and I" is a Big Mistake

Just between you and me, a really bad error in English is all caused by the word “between.”

For some unknown reason, lots of people want to say: between you and I… between she and I… between me and him… between he and I… all of these are, of course, WRONG.

And, it’s so easy to get these right. Let’s look.

The word “between” is a preposition. A preposition is a word like: in, of, on, about, after, - and a lot more. A prepositional phrase is like the following: in the store, of my own, on the bus, etc.

Sorry for getting technical, but it gets easy soon.

So, “between” is a preposition. That means it starts a prepositional phrase. For instance: I got a flat tire between here and the office. “Between here and the office” is the phrase.

Now, everybody knows the difference between personal pronouns, right?

SUBJECT   OBJECT

difference between explain me and explain to me

Explain to me / explain me

(Hi all

I know the correct way is explain to me, however I don't know if there is any rule about this.

Can you please provide me more information about this kind of verbs? Or some verbs with which I have to do the same.

Thank you)

• Talk (hablar) would be another. And "listen" (escuchar). You would say "talk to me", and "listen to me" (not "talk me" and "listen me"). I'm sorry I don't know the grammar rule. Other verbs don't need the word "to" before the indirect object. For example, the word, "tell". You can just say "tell me" - not "tell to me". Maybe someone knows the grammar rule. I think it just depends on the word.

'too' in negative sentence

"Too" in negative sentences: How can I define it?

(Hello everyone,

I learned that "too" can be used by native speakers in negative sentences. I know that it's a non-standard use. My question is: how can I define "too" in this case?

a. Used in colloquial English

b. Used in colloquial English but not recommended

c. Even though it occurs in natural English, it is a bad use of "too" which nobody should copy.

Ex.: I don't want to stay here too.

I personally prefer letter (c). And you? What do you think?

Thank you in advance!)

How to Whiten Teeth With Hydrogen Peroxide

Your teeth will naturally darken with age, but other factors can also contribute to yellowing. The chromogenic agents in coffee and tea, nerve damage due to an accident, smoking or certain antibiotics may be the culprit. Most dentist offices now offer teeth whitening to their patients, and you can purchase over-the-counter whitening kits at drug stores. For a cheaper solution, whiten teeth at home using hydrogen peroxide for a similar effect. Bleaching teeth with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution is acknowledged as a safe practice by the American Dental Association.
