. Yes, it is, thank you, englishholic. Hopefully, one of the administrative staff will soon fix it. . _________________ Native English teacher at Mister Micawber's |

not include someone. In this example, Karen wanted to make sure that everyone who should be invited was included on the wedding list and would get an invitation. _________________ "Inside every old person is a young person wondering what happened."

Spot on, there really is something missing after "out" & before "she". So would do here perfectly. But there is a strange tendency to omit the words which're supposed to connect two clauses. The way I see it is that the verb here must be used in Continuous. Something like this: Having no desire to leave anyone out she went over the wedding list one more time. But "to want" is not usually used in Continuous & consequently we have what we have. _________________ I find your Lack of Faith disturbing!

Hi,
But you could say: Not wanting to leave ..... one more time.
