hi world,

I try to come up with another game; I hope it will work!

RULE(s): One member have to post a sentence which is grammatically incorrect,( it has ONE grammar mistake ) and the next member will have to correct it.

THAT'S ALL!

an example:

a member says: The children is playing in the garden.

another member corrects: The children are playing in the garden.


HAVE FUN!



I'll start the game:

The mouse have a piece of cheese. ( Correct me, please )

for me the sentence sounds better like this:

I would have met you If the washing machine had not broken down.

regarding your original sentence I think:

I could have met you but the washing machine had broken down. ( at least I hope it is correct )





How many does one lesson cost? ( Correct me, please )
