My thoughts of the day

[Anthea]

Piling you are an expert - as a child my friend lived in a town that was surrounded by troops - most of the people in the town died from hunger, thirst and terrible diseases - his brothers and sisters all died - as an adult he still cannot talk about it though many people have wanted his story so that they could write about it

Do you know what the town was called - it must of happened 40 years ago - possibly longer

[Piling]

his town is in S. Kurdistan ?

In Soran area or in Behdinan ?

In Soran area or in Behdinan ?

That I do not know but I might remember the name if I heard/saw it

[Piling]

well it is easy to know if your friend speaks kurmancî or soranî

well it is easy to know if your friend speaks kurmancî or soranî

But I will search a such story in some books. It probably happened during the 1974-1975 Revolution.

Thank you I will try to find out more information - it will not be easy because my friend is not well mentally

Thank you for the video - I read the book years ago

E M Forster has long been considered one of the best and most grammatically correct English writers of all time - I always made my most advanced students read him

Concerning English grammar, I have a question. As every French students in English language I have learnt to say I DO you DO/she he DOES, etc.

But this week, by reading George Eliot and Dickens I have read some sentences like he do not, / she don't.

Was it some mistakes in my kindle or there was an old rule of grammar when that form was correct ?

You are perfectly correct - I do / you do / he does / she does / it does - so what you saw was in all likelihood a printing error - contractions such as don't should only appear as a quote within speech marks - otherwise one should write do not
