Hello,

Please, could anybody explain to me the difference between:

All part of the service.
All parts of the service.

Thank you

[Alan]

Hi Vadim,

'All part of the service' is a set expression you say to someone who has thanked you for what you have done and suggests something like -'it's been my pleasure to be of service to you.' 'All parts of the service' suggests every single part of the service and could be used as in: All parts pf the service are undertaken by experts.

Hi Mitra,

Good question and thanks for that. 'Senile' means too old to understand something, which must apply to me !! because I should have noticed that this is a typing error. My apologies! It should of course be 'single'.

Thanks again

Hi!
Thank you Alan for your very useful "Responses" tests, I have learned a lot. I didn't know the correct answer I just guessed but now, owing to your explanation, It's clear to me what "All part of the service" means.

Dest regards
Lara
