Sentence: You can leave your application... #1 (permalink) Fri Aug 14, 2009 6:18 am   Sentence: You can leave your application...
 

Hello everybody,

Please correct my English speaking that I have done to foreign people who came to the embassy last week. I hope I will practice the best for next time with your help.

There is a visitor who came to the embassy to submit application for visa and pay for visa, however my friend who responsible for visa nothing in the office. So, he asked if I could help him.

Then I told him like this sentence below:

Well, you can leave your application here with me, however the payment for visa must direct to Ms.Dona.

Is that correct answer?

Thanks in advance.

I'm sure that the visitor understood you. However:

Well, you can leave your application here with me. However, the fee for your visa must be paid directly to Ms.Dona.

I am writing to request sick leave as I have (got) an upset stomach and...

'for sick leave' is wrong here. 'Got' is unnecessary.

I hear that However is an alternative to But in some situations.

1. If we want to start a new sentence (after one sentence), it should start with 'However'. Is this correct?

You can use it. BUT, you have to pay something.

Instead of the usage above,we use like below:
You can use it. However, you have to pay something.

Yes, in formal, grammatically correct usage, a new sentence would start with 'however' (a connective) rather than 'but' (a conjunction).

Connectives are words or phrases that link clauses or sentences.
Conjunctions are used to link words or clauses within a sentence.
All conjunctions are also connectives, but not all connectives are conjunctions.

Why do you say "connective" instead of "connector".
Isn't connective an adjective, is it?

'Connective' is adjective and noun:

Grammar . a word used to connect words, phrases, clauses, and sentences, as a conjunction.
