Hi Keriimbepo

Hi Chris and welcome! You sound like you're gonna fit in well...

As others have said, your grammar looks fine from your posts, so don't worry. When I was at school they had a very weird way of teaching grammar which involved not telling us rules - just letting us absorb them. Although I'd like to know the words to describe the grammar I use, most of the time you really don't need to. Reading is a great way to absorb it, of course!

So just write and enjoy, and ask about any grammar points you're really unsure about. The Technique forum on here is great for that kind of thing.

Hi Deb

Thanks for the warm welcome and your comments on grammar. You're right, I thought I'd need to know all the grammatical terms used, beginning to realise that I was wrong. Thankfully.
Not really sure how they taught grammar in my school, I wasn't there much!

Chris,

Did you bunk off a lot or were there other reasons you weren't there much?

Deb

Hi Deb

Yeah, I spent more time with my Grandad on building sites than going to school. The joys of a mis-spent youth. It was all good though.

chris

All good material for writing...

You wouldn't believe some of the characters or the fun & games.

I probably would - my brother's a carpenter, as was my father-in-law, and one of my brothers-in-law is a bricklayer.

Hi Clondon, another fellow newbie here learning the ropes. Maybe we could learn decent grammar etc together as we progress?

Anyway, have fun! I intend to .

Thanks BenWS

Looks like we've come to the right place (Keep it quiet but they've got proper writers on 'ere).

hi dude education not coming from school books, if u have practical knowledge it could be fine more over to increase a knowledge make use of lots of study through E-books as well as news letter it is more enough to increase knowledge in news letter lots of in synonyms are used so that it could be fine.....thanks

The funny thing about that last post is that anywhere except a writers' site, it would look convincing...
