    I was halfway through correcting your mistakes, when I realised that you have made exactly the same mistakes that you made in another thread. I corrected them there, and asked you to take more care. If you cannot be bothered to make some effort to help yourself, I cannot be bothered to waste time on you.

    Also, I answered part of this question, here: http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/pr...tml#post860969 . It would have made more sense to continue this topic in that thread rather than starting another.
    Context is important. Please provide enough for us to be able to deal effectively with your question.
    Your thread title should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.
