Dear Allan,

Hereunder I have given a link to one of the test pages in english-test-net.com

www.english-test.net/toeic/vocabulary/words/338/toeic-test.php

here I found the sentence as below:

'' question total TOEIC, 3
n. person who who makes and fixes keys and fasting mechanisms ''


First of all I want to note that the word ''who'' repeated twice. Moreover, I want to know if this word '' fasting '' is correct in this place or it should be '' fastening ''

Thanks in advance for your clarification..

...

Hi Torsten...

By the conventional proof reading tools, in my opinion, we can not eliminate the mistakes or typos like the one happened here in the exercise. So still we need more smart software to encounter these problems. Hope in future we will be able to correct all our grammar as well as vocabulary errors by man-made-machines...

And many thanks to you for notifying me of the correct usage of Alan's name.

"A, An, The, At, In, On...etc"

Ponja,

A, An, The, are the ONLY articles in English ... the others are prepositions.
