Are that English sentences correct.


Recommended Posts

1)Where my glass is? 2) Where is my glass 3) My glass, where is :whistle:

Where is My glass?

"Where my glass is" would only work if "do you know" was placed before it: "Do You know where My glass is?"

Either would be the right statement.

"My Glass, Where is" is grammatically incorrect and has improper punctuation.

The correct sentence would be number two. If you are looking for the.. however you COULD say "Where's my glass at?" if you say in the right tone, just like people will say that there is a problem with something, and I will ask: "What the problem is?"

Second one is not a question because it doesn't have a ?

The way it's said would make it a question wouldn't it? Assuming it's going to be used orally rather than through text it's correct, I think. If it's meant to be in text, then none of them are right due to different reasons.

The question 'Where my glass is?' would be more suited as a response (assuming you were going to respond to a question with a question), should someone tell you where another item is - for example, a cup. If you were unsure you could ask "Where my glass is?" to confirm it was somewhere in the same area. That being said... it's more of a colloquial thing here in Northern Ireland at least. The third one is just a train-wreck, I suppose. The punctuation is grammatically incorrect due to its placement, and even if it was moved the question would make no sense.

So do I need to learn grammer from scratch or do I need something else cuz I considers these sentences correct due to some abnormal teachings.... :blink:

Yep, I think a grammar review is in order ;)

By the way, the topic title should be "Are these English sentences correct?"

"Sentences" is plural, so you use "these" instead of "that".

Oh, so you want to learn. Why didn't you say so? And stop being silly, guys, asking how they are incorrect is a perfectly valid question.

Well it's kind of like asking why doesn't 1 + 1 = 3 imho... but if you guys want to get into sentence structure, be my guest :)

Why wouldn't we want to get into sentence structure? That's exactly what this is about. How else are you supposed to teach someone grammar? :blink:

I'd be explaining it myself, but I forget what some of the parts are (I know subject, predicate, etc, but I forget what "where" and "is" are...)

Well it's kind of like asking why doesn't 1 + 1 = 3 imho... but if you guys want to get into sentence structure, be my guest :)

I suppose the question might help the OP in the future when it comes to structuring sentences. If he knows the general guidelines for sentence structure then he'll be able to form sentences more easily in the future... at least, I hope that's how it'll work out for him.

From the posts above we are debating it a bit. I would include some but after choosing the multiquote response for my reply Neowin has decided not to include them. I cant be bothered to go back and edit more than I have done with this post already lol

    • I wonder how driving laws around the world will change. No way to really tell if people are using phone. Same with smart watches i guess even now and those silly built in tablets for controlling the car instead of buttons.

    • It is the same everywhere. Gitlab's boss recently had a lengthily blog post about the future of AI in the company and in general. The usual drum beating. When I saw it I checked their stock prices - close to 50% down.
