    Default please frame a question

    Mr.X is the fifth president of India

    please frame a question which would give me the answer fifith.

    Are these sentences correct?

    She told me what u people were chatted.
    I was unaware of the fact that you were supplying cards freely.
    My brother is elder to me by 5 years
    or
    My brother is older than me by 5 years.

    When somebody says 'I am not lazy' Even i want to say 'I am not lazy'
    if I say 'So AM I' is that correct?I used SO AM I to indicate that even I am not lazy.


    Thanks

    She told me everything you people chatted.

    I think second is alright.

    "My brother is older than me by 5 years" is better.

    If we are talking and if I say "I'm not lazy." Yes you can say "So am I" also.

    This is the question asked quite often here in India.
    What is the rank order of Mr.x as president?Many people disagree.
    She asked me what we had chatted.
    Iwas unaware that you had been supplying cards free of cost./you were ..is also acceptable.
    My brother is elder to me by five years.
    My brother is older than me by five years.(See a thread posted by ANGLIKA, a couple of days back)You can search in usingenglish.com)
    No.I am not. is correct .Why should you say 'SO AM I' when you are not?
