The whole world is on my hand." OR "The whole world is in my hand." #1 (permalink) Tue Apr 21, 2009 18:46 pm   The whole world is on my hand." OR "The whole world is in my hand."
 

My dear and respected teachers,

1: "I'm a male." OR "I'm male." ?

2: "I was chatting with you in the dream." OR "I was chatting with you in my dream." ?

3: "The whole world is on my hand." OR "The whole world is in my hand." ?

4: "The fight is on." OR "The fight is going on." ?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Twilit,

My suggestions:

"I'm a male." OR "I'm male." ? Both are acceptable

"I was chatting with you in the dream." OR "I was chatting with you in my dream." ? Both are acceptable

"The whole world is on my hand." OR "The whole world is in my hand." ? In my hands is the accepted phrase

"The fight is on." OR "The fight is going on." ? The fight is on = The fight has started The fight is going on = The fight is continuing.

Alan

Hello Twilit,
Don't use ADVICES as plural form of ADVICE because ADVICE means COUNSEL and ADVICES means INFORMATION.
