Sir, My child has been instructed by his teacher to make answer for some of his exercises in English I. One of the questions is " What do you know about your neighbours?"
Sir, I am confused to giving answer that whether this question is asking for definition of neighbours or about acquantance of neighbours.
Could you please help me sir.

Hi Msudan
First of all, you can call me by my name, there is no need for the formal "sir". I'm sure you have read Ralf's post here?
The question "What do you know about your neighbours?" can be answered like this: They moved into our neighbourhood about 3 years ago and they are very friendly. We often have barbecues together and our kids are in the same sports club.
Hope this helps. Torsten _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |

| swathi wrote: | HELLO SIR, HERE ARE SOME QUESTIONS DO U LIKE NATURE? DOES HE LIKE U? DOES SHE GO THERE? DO U CALL ME AS GOOD? DO U PRAISE ME? DO U LIKE NOVELS? SIR, WHAT IS INFINITIVE?(CLEAR MEANING) |
Hi Swathi,
Thanks a lot for your questions. Please STOP SHOUTING (using CAPITAL letters only). Also, the word "u" does not exist in English. If you really want to learn English, you should at least make the effort to type the words properly. Here are some suggestions regarding your questions.
| swathi wrote: | | DOES SHE GO THERE? |
How often does she go there?
| swathi wrote: | | DO U CALL ME AS GOOD? |
Do you think I'm as good as you are?
| swathi wrote: | | DO U PRAISE ME? |
How often do you praise me?
The infinitve is the basic form of the verb, also called the base verb.

Let me know if i make some mistakes! |
Hi Gomez,
Many thanks for your questions. Please note that you should start every sentence with a capital letter. Here are some more suggestions:
This one is grammatically correct but it sounds very strange without further context. What about Do we eat the right foods?
| gomez wrote: | | do they dance with me? |
The same here. The question is grammatically correct but it doesn't make much sense.
| gomez wrote: | | do you learn about verbs? |
What about this: How many verbs do you learn each week?

Sat Aug 09, 2008 5:21 am Simple present tense |
|
|
Simple present Tense as I understand is, it implies a permanent action, unviversal truth etc. I go to office by bus every day. I take my lunch at 1:30pm. I always want to keep my promise. The Sun rises in the East. The earth rounds the Sun.
Thanks |

Hi Sunny,
My examples for this exercise as mentioned below; Do you like football? Does she enjoy watching fashion shows? Do they eat bananas? Does he go to work by moto? Do you have the book about the life of Richard?
Hope that all is correct |

Hi Katya,
Thanks a lot for posting your questions which look very good. Here are some suggestions:
| Katya wrote: | | Does Karye loves John? |
Does Karye love John?
| Katya wrote: | | Do I read that book? |
Although this question is possible, it doesn't sound very natural. These would be better: Shall I read that book?/Am I supposed to read that book?/Am I reading that book?
| Katya wrote: | | Does my mom cook the diner? |
Your question is grammatically correct but it doesn't sound very natural. Here is my suggestion: Does my Mom often cook dinner for us?
| Katya wrote: | | Do my children play a game? |
This question is grammatically correct too but it doesn't sound very natural either. Here are alternatives: Do my children often play that game?/Are my children playing a game with you?
Keep up the great work! Regards, Torsten _________________ Test Of English for International Communication TOEIC Preparation & TOEIC Vocabulary |
