posts which contain the word

[Untaught88]

Hi,

Is "Posts which contain the word "challenge" are deleted. The purpose of this group is to teach or learn" correct?

The first sentence seems OK to me, but I don't understand the second. Can you elaborate?

 

[Untaught88]

I am learning and teachers are teaching me on this website. This is the purpose of the website. Be close to my sentence.

We don't put a word in double quotes in a sentence inside double quotes. You need to put 'challenge' in single quotes.
"Use 'challenge' like this."
I don't understand your sentence either. What does "Be close to my sentence" mean?

 

[Untaught88]

The purpose of this website is either to teach or to learn.

Just check the above sentence if it's correct or not, please.

This would be better:

The purpose of this website is to teach and to learn.

For the first one, try:

Are posts which contain the word "challenge" deleted?

For the second one, try:

The purpose of this website is to bring teachers and learners together, right?

Be close to my sentence.

It's not easy to see the connection between the two sentences- I see no reason why teaching and learning would involve deleting the word challenge. It's easy to see why that word could be a pet hate in some contexts, but I cannot see how that would further learning.

That's what's fun about this forum. It's full of surprises. The learners come up with things I would never see anywhere else.
