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.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models

      By zikalify · Posted

      UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • Valve finally confirms Steam Machine prices, starts at $1049 for 512GB option

      If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.

      I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
