Your first sentence suggests your refusal to do something. In other words: - If you think I will refuse to access these machines, tell me.
| Quote: |
| "If you think that I will not be able to access these machines, tell me". |
Your second sentence refers to whether it will be possible for you to do something. . _________________ "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." ~ Abraham Lincoln |

Thanks, Yankee. A small word could change the entire meaning, really. Of course, this implies to any language. Thanks for your reply. Suresh |

Hi Milanya. I supposed that it's wrong.Therefore, I looked "implies" up to make sure if "Sureshvemuri" has used it in a right way. I found out it's wrong. but I wasn't courageous enough to mention it. Thanks a million. _________________ Global Marketing |
