Hello Silas,
There is lot of diffference in pronounciation between these words (loss, lost, lose and loose). As for me the pronounciation will differ from country to country and place
to place, you cannot folllow my pronounciation, I think you should ask your country
people or Forum Coach Beeesnees Madam.
I am very poor in pronounciation.
Wish you all the best.
Thank you

Dear Alan,
Many thanks for your newsletter 115. Believe or not, I always take pleasure in your newsletters. You could be a well-balanced man with wise sense of humour. It’s a big luck that you give to us some.
This essay exited our curiosity what can be the punch-line? It was very exciting. And the punch-line was"incredible" can mean “amazing”. I’ve burst into laugh.
“Incredible” is a conjunction in my vocabulary in Hungarian and in English also. In my last letter to you I wanted to write “incredible that I ’ ve muddled up everything”. That’s why I asked to delete my letter.It was unfortunately a hotchpotch.
But of course when I hear an incredible story for example about ghosts who appeared or the futurity. I say I don’t believe in ghosts and in the resurrection either. So this kind of story is incredible for me. Because I accept more easily this translation of the Genesis 3.19.:
“For you were made from dust, and to dust you will return.”
Why I don’t believe in the resurrection?
My answer here:
prb.org/Articles/2002/HowMan … Earth.aspx
Only one sentence from this article:
“Number who have ever been born till 2002: 106,456,367,669” roughly:
106.46 billion. Where can find rooms for too many people if they rise again from the dead?
“In 2001 the World population was: 6.94 billion.” Roughly 100 times fewer people than there used to born till now. And we say about them or us there is an overpopulation in our time.
“Overpopulation is a condition where an organism’s numbers exceed. Steve Jones, head of the biology department at University College London, has said, ‘Humans are 10,000 times more common than we should be, according to the rules of the animal kingdom, and we have agriculture to thank for that. Without farming, the world population would probably have reached half a million by now.’ The world’s population has significantly increased in the last 50 years, mainly due to medical advancements and substantial increases in agricultural productivity.”

A compensation of Rs. 3 lakh each to be paid to 21 boys.
In above sentence can we use ’ is to be’ or ‘be’ in place of ‘to be’. if yes then what is the difference between the them.
to be paid - sounds as if the context is a contract and this is the stipulation of these terms.
is to be paid - a statement of intention.
Hello Alan,
Many thanks for your letter. It is interesting that I remember well this newsletter. I didn’t change anything I am very credulous and what is more gullible. What means that I am too willing to believe or accept what other people tell me and easily tricked.
But it is characteristic of me that I try to avoid to tell a lie. Why? From self-defence. Life is easier if I can tell stories as they happened and I don’t have to think of how I said this to somebody.
But when I tell a happening and somebody calls my story in question, and she states that it couldn’t happen in this way, it isn’t credible to her/him - it is an unforgivable and I keep away from these persons.
Regards.

Hi all,
If you want to have credible information while improving your vocabulary don’t hesitate to visit and to take part on this site; because, I think doing so isn’t credulous.
Thanks,
Faliery
It means that, the story is’ credible’ and person is ‘credulous’
Am I correct?
You are correct. But you didn’t explain what credible/credulous mean. If so. doesn’t know these words how you explain to them their meanings?
credible … you declare about sth that it can be believeble/credible/vraisemblable
credulous who believes everything that we can say , sb can be cheated/duped very easily, naive =lacking experience of life, knowledge or good judgement and willing to believe that people always tell you the truth
