Here is another question.
Can �a succession of", "a sequence of" be used with both "the" and "Determiners"?(like these; a succession of the scandals, a sequence of the names, a sequence of these events etc) |

Not to embarrass anyone, but I think you want to say "Thank you, Ma'am" rather than "sir" to Mary W. Ng, since Mary is a woman's name.
And while I'm at it, compliments to Ms. Ng for her excellent answers to often tricky grammatical problems. _________________ You live a new life for every new language you speak. -Czech proverb |
