Argument over sentence
Wonder if anybody could tell me if the following sentence, is correct and makes sense.
My sentence: No where else on this planet will you feel so at home
Other person put it as: No where else on this planet, Where you will feel so at home
second other person: No where else on this planet will make you feel so at home
I just know mine looks correct.
which one is correct?

Nowhere (not no where) else on this planet will make you feel so at home
I think the third sentence doesn't sound right. I think it should be:
No other place on this planet will make you feel so at home.
Otherwise it means that there IS NOT a place on this planet at all that would make you feel at home. It doesn't matter where you live, you just won't feel at home.
The more I think of all that, the more confused I get. I think I got it right.

Thank you ever so much Natalie, so apart from the space between "no" and "where" you would say the top line would be correct? :D

Go ahead. I don't see anything wrong with that sentence.
Besides, I wouldn't pick on you even if there was a mistake. What's in your signature is YOUR business as far as I am concerned :)
Come to think of it, someone might do it on purpose and that could be just your genuine signature ... this way you can get everyone else going...wrrrrr :mad: :mad: :mad:

If the speaker really believes there is no other place where the listener will feel at home, then he/she just might be inclined to use "would" instead of "will".
Where else on this planet would you feel so at home?
I think "could" works well here too.
Where else on this planet could you feel so at home?
Where else on this planet could you possibly feel so at home?
:D :)

Both 1) and 3) are OK. My choice is 1), though.
It's poetic. :wink:
2) is ungrammatical: It should be,
"There is nowhere else on this planet where you will feel at home", without the comma (,).
3) is OK, but is carries a slightly different meaning than 1):
3) Nowhere else on this planet will make you feel at home. (causative)
1) Nowhere else on this planet will you feel at home. (assertion)
All the best, :D

Re: Argument over sentence
Thank you Natalie, X Mode and Casiopea,
Your all fantastic people
Here is the Signature I made , its nothing fancy but its what started all the rubbish thats going on now.

Although I'm starting to think twice about friendly members, there are a few that really have it in for me, and telling so many lies, but what they dont know is, Admin keeps a record, and at the end of the day, they are stuffed. but hey enough of that, wrong forum to discuss problems :D
