Sentence: ‘from the various past of the country’
or
’ from the varous part of the country’
would you please tell me madam which one is right?
That is not a complete sentence. It is just a fragment of a sentence. However, from what I can tell it should be
‘from the various parts of the country’.
First, I did not correct your post for grammar and usage. Your sentence was a bit unrefined. While posting a query, you should be as careful as possible about the use of capitals and punctuations. Grammar is most important, though. Some can be used as singular or plural. It depends on the word that follows it. Since ‘exercise’ is a count noun, you need to use it either in singular (with a determiner/non definite article) or in plural as corrected. Educated Indian users do not recognize ‘some exercise’ as good English. An error ignorantly/inadvertently committed has been characterised as Indian English. (One should appreciate the fact that foreign users of English can also be as good as or even better than others at the language.)
Second, use of punctuations is also very important. Wrong ones (their presence or absence) may import unexpected or opposite or ambiguous meanings. If you watch closely, you can learn it from this forum as well. As regards your ‘dot’, I think you mean the ‘full stop’ (period). Or, is it also called so?
Third, when your post gets repeated, there is a facility for you to delete it, but usually before it receives a response. Try it next time. Alternatively, you can send a private message to Mr Torsten who will also help you. Sometimes, he does it on his own if the repeat attracts his attention.
Try not to repeat a common mistake. All the best, Harsh!
My apologies for that. I have seen that mistake used by quite a number of English learners with an Indian background, so due to its commonality I assumed it was in general use.
Does this paragraph contain a number of ‘errors’ or some examples of ‘Indian English’? Maybe there is a combination of both.
