Why is it that everybody wants to help me whenever i need someone's help Why do we say an historical but a history Why does everybody want to help me whenever i need someone's help
Can you please explain to me the difference in mean. When should i use “a” versus “an” in front of a word beginning with the letter h Why is filipino spelled with an f
Some have said that it's because in filipino, philippines starts with f But if this is so, why did we only change the beginning. Googling 'for why' (in quotes) i discovered that there was a single word 'forwhy' in middle english. Relative why can be freely substituted with that, like any restrictive relative marker
I.e, substituting that for why in the sentences above produces exactly the same pattern of grammaticality and ungrammaticality The reason that he did it * the cause that he did it * the intention that he did it * the effect that he did it * the thing that. Since we can say why can we grow taller?, why cannot we grow taller? is a logical and properly written negative We don't say why we can grow taller? so the construct should not be why we cannot grow taller? the reason is that auxiliaries should come before the subject to make an interrogative.
Why should we capitalize the first person pronoun 'i' even when it does not appear at the beginning of a sentence Why is it not the case for other pronouns? Why does english use no. as an abbreviation for number It's a preserved scribal abbreviation like the ampersand & (formed by eliding the letters of et to mean and).
The reason why is an interesting one, and worth answering The spurious “silent l” was introduced by the same people who thought that english should spell words like debt and island with extra “historical” letters, which would be silent but tell you something presumably important regarding the word’s origin.
