Part 3:
For quotations that encompass more than one sentence, you use an ellipsis with four dots. Example: “I am Anra. Therefore, worship me, for I am amazing.” Could become: “I am Anra.... worship me... I am amazing.” Does this make sense? Let me know if you need more examples.

That was an interesting random knowledge.

That feels when you already know how it works yet still use it the wrong way in normal conversations xD

She isn’t my fav, but she’s very good. She’s a predecessor of Austen, and you can tell that Austen was quite inspired by her. I’ve read only two of her four books, both of which are very, very long. I’d say, start with Evelina, which is her first book.

Already skimmed through her wiki~~

Part 2:
Definition: a split infinitive is anything placed in between “to” and the verb it’s paired with, often “not” being the offender in question. (I’m looking at you, “I Decided to Not Compete and Quietly Create Dolls Instead.”)

Part 3:
Examples:
“To be or not to be, that is the question.” Shakespeare for the win!
“To be or to not be, that is the question.” Split infinitive.

“To boldly go where no man has gone before.” Sounds awesome, but it is a split infinitive.
“To go boldly” or “Boldly to go” sounds less cool, but you won’t have to worry about red marks on your paper.

arigato @Anra7777 -san~ always is fun to read your status

Part 5:
In a recent court case within the past few years, a court decided that the missing comma meant that workers could have over time pay. For more info on the case and the comma in general, see https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_58cad41ae4b0ec9d29d9dd28

For, frankly, hilarious reasons to use the comma: https://www.buzzfeed.com/adamdavis/the-oxford-comma-is-extremely-important-and-everyone-should?utm_term=.byBQ8j2kb#.il7yd3J0K

it is idiotic and useless

@Arie Sun I didn’t vote for him, so don’t blame me. And @GonZ555 the show’s called “The Cosmic Eye Ashtar Command Radio” if you want to look it up. I’ve satisfied my curiosity enough, myself.

Lol :D are they high on crack or something while doing the radio show...?

A guy from Venus ain...... Wow sounds like an interesting BL plot lol ..... Long distance relationship from mars to venus lol

@Hirame how am I confused? My mom was an English prof. She was very insistent I learn this correctly. I’d cite to her material if I could, but I’m not sure where it is at the moment as it is in paper format.

Oooh I didn't know this one

Though I knew this already, but I think your series would come in handy to many, so keep up the good work.

Part 3:
Notes: placement of “only” is very important. If you place it in the wrong place, it will either change the meaning of the sentence or make it incomprehensible.

I once got some promotional material from Comcast. One of the sentences had a free floating “only” it. I couldn’t make heads or tails of what the sentence meant. When I called them up, it took a while for them to figure it out themselves.

thank you very much ,Very informative and great job.

It depends on the intonation too, I figure you can say you only with only relating to you when you're speaking out loud.

@Katsono I figured that it was probably better to keep things simple, partly because of the character limit on comments, and partly to keep people interested. This isn’t meant to replace real grammar lessons, just to help people get started on the path to better grammar.

Yeah but I think a lot of people have trouble with vowel sounds!

Guess I’ll have to brush up on it at some point and put together a mini-lesson. ^_^

It's a me? Not it's me?

@Katsono of course, normally it’s “it’s me.” But have you ever heard Mario say anything other than “it’s a me”? o(^▽^)o

I wasn't careful about that so I guess I didn't notice o-o

o(╥﹏╥) When the readers are out in full force and you just don't have time to translate.

Lol the dilemma :D

Tbh, having huge amounts of likes usually means you're either very active in profile posts or in the games' section, since none of those count towards your message count.
