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...)

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.

    • Microsoft adds reusable skills and finance data connectors to Copilot in Excel

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Microsoft adds reusable skills and finance data connectors to Copilot in Excel by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft is giving Copilot in Excel a collection of new features aimed squarely at finance teams. The update introduces reusable instructions for common tasks, connections to services such as FactSet and Morningstar, and a better way to review what Copilot intends to do before it starts changing a workbook. The most interesting addition is 'Skills' finally coming to Copilot in Excel. Skills let companies teach Copilot how to handle a recurring process, so employees do not need to write the same detailed prompt every month. Users can create skills that can specify the steps Copilot should follow, along with the required layout, formulas, and formatting. Microsoft says users can create their own skills by saving a SKILL.md file in OneDrive. The file is written using Markdown and tells Copilot when and how to perform the task. Once it is available, a user can select the skill in the Copilot pane or mention it in a prompt using the @ symbol. There is also a library of prebuilt finance skills for customers who do not want to create their own. Microsoft plans to let developers distribute additional skills through the Microsoft Marketplace and the Microsoft 365 Admin Center, with LSEG, Ramp, Rogo, samaya.ai, Velixo, and Vena among the first partners involved. The company says that it is also expanding the external data that Copilot can access from inside Excel. New connectors are being added for CB Insights, Daloopa, FactSet, Morningstar, PitchBook, and S&P Global data through technology developed by Kensho. There is a catch, however. Accessing these services may require a separate subscription from the relevant data provider, so a Microsoft 365 Copilot licence will not necessarily unlock all of them. FactSet is also only available in preview for now, with general availability planned for July. Microsoft is also trying to make Copilot’s workbook edits easier to inspect. Users can switch to a planning mode that shows which sheets, cell ranges, formulas, and assumptions Copilot intends to work with before it begins making changes. Once the work is complete, the Show Changes pane can distinguish edits made by Copilot from those made by human collaborators. The update continues Microsoft’s push to turn Excel Copilot from a chatbot into an agent that can carry out longer tasks. The company previously added an Agent Mode capable of planning and completing multi-step Excel work. Microsoft also recently acquired financial AI startup Fintool, another indication that finance is becoming a key target for its Excel AI strategy. Prebuilt skills, personalization, workbook rules, external connectors, planning mode, and Copilot attribution in Show Changes are generally available to Microsoft 365 Copilot customers using Excel on the web, Windows, and macOS. Custom skills are initially available to Microsoft 365 Insiders on Windows and Mac starting today. Microsoft plans to make them generally available across Windows, Mac, and the web over the next month. Partner-built skills are expected during the third quarter of the year. Availability may still differ depending on region and licensing.

      Exactly. They serve different (although related) purposes.
    • Microsoft Authenticator - Constant Login Approval Requests

      By +Elі · Posted

      Do not enter the code under any circumstances, or you will be sorry. It's definitely and most likely a hacking attempt.  That happened to me a couple of years ago, and I kept receiving those prompts for months. It's simply the attacker trying to get you tired of the constant requests, so you just give up and enter the code, so they can log in to your account.
