Please correct the following sentences for me. #2 (permalink) Tue Sep 27, 2011 19:47 pm   Please correct the following sentences for me.
 

He is bend to do it.

There is the best teacher of that class. (but I'm not so sure because I didn't get the meaning very well)

You must regard him for being your benefactor ( I didn't get the meaning very well too)

He is waiting for better and more promising opportunity.

When I see her, I will give her your gift.

She spend many sleepless nights.

I hope I helped! I have only one question - are this sentences from an exercise book ( for example) or you wrote them by yourself? I am just curious. :)

No, I am not. :)
All I know - I learned it by myself. But of course if I have some questions I ask the teachers in my school.
I think I gave you the right answers, but if your not convinced, you can always ask someone from the forum (who is native English speaker) and he/she can tell you for sure.

best wishes,
Iva :)

I'm sorry but some of the 'corrections' suggested are incorrect.

1) He is bent on doing it.

2) There is the best teacher in that class. <-- The meaning is unclear. More than one aspect needs to be changed. It's a poor question.

3 ) You ought to have regarded him as your benefactor.

4) He is waiting for a better, more promising opportunity.

5) When I shall see her I will deliver her your gift (to her).

6) She spent many a sleepless night... <-- This is not a complete sentence.

7) He swore by Go <-- seems to be unfinished

I have added full stops to all your sentences. Without them, they are incorrect.
