        Hi!


        1) I can go either swimming or running.
        2) I can either go swimming or running.

        Which sentence is correct?

        Thanks.

        I feel the answer should be
        2) I can either go swimming or running.

        Agree

          Hi,

          For the following synthesis:

          Mother brought me to the dentist. I had a bad toothache.

          Ans: I had a bad toothache so Mother brought me to the dentist.

          If my ds put "mother" instead of "Mother", is it still correct?

            I think it would have to be \"my mother\" rather than just Mother.

                'Mother' with a capital 'M' is like a proper noun; if 'mother' is used, it is a common noun so there needs to be a 'my'.

                    Hi, pls advise which is correct:


                    A lion is taking at a ‘flock’ or ‘herd’ of sheep.

                    I would think both answers acceptable:(

                      Flock can be used for both birds and hoved animals which move in groups. So it can be used for sheep


                      But herd is only used for group of animals…and humans…
                      So I feel herd of sheep is more apt.

                      As such both can be used, not sure which one the teacher approves of as correct answer.

                      Did your child check with teacher?

                        The correct answer from the sch is flock! My DS answered herd:(
                        I would agrees both acceptable.
