1.Do they make sense?
2.If so, #1 through #4 are the same meaning?
3.#5 through #7 are the same meaning?
4.'inform me' and 'tell me' and 'let me know' are the same meaning?
Thanks. |

They all make sense.
1 through 4 mean the same thing.
5 through 7 have the same meaning.
For practical purposes inform, tell and let me know, mean the same thing. |
