I am writing an article in another language and want to link it with the English article how do you do it —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ddogg2 ( talk • contribs)
How do structural descriptive grammar approach define the noun,verb,adverb and adjective?
Can someone offer an explanation as to the difference between the two. I can understand it it english, but am trying to explain it to myself in german. MHDIV ɪŋglɪʃnɜː(r)d( Suggestion?| wanna chat?) 11:56, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
My is a determiner. It patterns with other determiners such as the, and a/an, some and so on. Mine is a whole noun phrase, that can be understood as incorporating the determiner my in meaning. Many languages have that distinction e.g., Spanish mi vs. mio . mnewmanqc 18:34, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
By summing up what was mentioned above, the difference in present-day English is mine is used as a pronoun and as a predicate adjective. My is used only as an attributive adjective.-- El aprendelenguas 23:03, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
How does one say eachother/oneanother instead of us. Is it something like: Wir duschen uns Wir duschen einander ? P.S. sorry for the bad example, but my mind's gone blank and I can't think of a more appropriate reflexive verb! MHDIV ɪŋglɪʃnɜː(r)d( Suggestion?| wanna chat?) 12:07, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
