Sentence Correction

[Baazeegar]

One of my friend used the following sentence . Is it correct ? If not where it is wrong and how to use it correctly?

" I am merely inconvenienced by your mail traffic "

Thanks in advance

The sentence is correct English (apart from the missing full stop), but more context is needed to judge whether it was used appropriately.

Thanks Dozy . Full stop is also there . I forgot . The context is , I was mailing her continously. She wanted me to stop mailing her.

Thanks

In that case "I am merely inconvenienced by your mail traffic" is a strange thing to say in normal circumstances. It may be possible if the person is deliberately using over-elaborate language for effect (e.g. is being facetious).

By the way, your use of spaces is haphazard, which makes your writing look messy. You should put one space after a full stop or comma, and no space before. For example:

A sentence . Another sentence. <-- Wrong
A sentence. Another sentence. <-- Correct

When using quotation marks you should not use a space after the opening quote or before the closing quote:

" some quoted text " <-- Wrong
"some quoted text" <--Correct

Thanks Dozy. When typing on net and computer, I use "space" before and after a full stop. I feel comfortable in viewing the same. Just for clarity in viewability.

Thanks for the correction.

I will correct myself.

Facetious. Can I use it like this,

My friend made a facetious remark. Is it correct?

Thanks my friend.

She told that she read my earlier mail in which I told that I will stop further mails to her. But I again sent one more mail on the same day. For this she sent a reply which includes the line I quoted here.

I didn't understand the meaning.

Once again thanks.
