Hi teacher Yankee,
Thanks for your responses.
Do move on , move, increase, grow and move ahead in have the same meaning and are they interchangeable?If not, what is the difference in meaning btw them?
Ex1: Share prices moved ahead today.
= Share prices moved on today.
= Share prices moved today.
=Share prices increased ahead today.
=Share prices grow ahead today. ?
Ex2: Activities in business investment had moved recently.
=Activities in business investment had moved ahead recently.
=Activities in business investment had moved on recently.
=Activities in business investment had grown recently.
=Activities in business investment had increased recently. ?
Q
Thanks teacher,
In short,
1/Share prices moved ahead today = Share prices moved ahead today =Share prices moved ahead today : up.
Share prices moved today: up or down
2/
Activities in business investment have moved recently :up or down.
=Activities in business investment have moved ahead recently. =Activities in business investment have increased recently. = Activities in business investment have grown recently :up.
Is that what you mean, teacher Yankee?
Q
Sorry, I have had some mistakes.
1/Share prices moved ahead today = Share prices increased today =Share prices grew today : up. ?
You wrote:
Share prices moved today: But, I would not recommend using this particular sentence to talk about share prices at all.
2/Yes, that what I’d like to ask. what do you normally say in this case?
3/You wrote:
In particular move on is quite different. This phrasal verb usually has the sense that you stop doing one thing and begin doing something else.
So, in this case move on = go on ?Are they interchangeable?If not, what is the difference btw them?
Thanks
