I saw a sentence as follows:
No credit is given to this restaurant.
I think this sentence is wrong.
Can I say "No credit is given to customers in this restaurant" instead?
Am I right?

No credit will be given in this restaurant.
Usually shortened to: "No Credit".
Means you have to pay by cash or credit card.
No credit is given to this restaurant, means: no public acknowledgement, or praise is given to this restaurant
So it's not incorrect English but it doesn't mean the same thing. |
