Familiar as the adjective is needed here. This means you recognize them. _________________ English as a Second Language You can read my ESL story Present Simple |

Has this test sentence lost the word 'you'?
It is always more relaxing to eat in a restaurant where the faces of the staff are familar and you know everyone by name.
As the sentence currently stands, it means "the faces of the staff know everyone by name." -- which is quite odd. _________________ "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." ~ Abraham Lincoln |

Although Amy pointed out the error over a year ago, the word "you" is still missing from the sentence. Englishholic |
