For instance if you heard someone say something like "wheatherapore" and you think in your head weather report, like wheatherapore doesn't necessarily mean anything but perhaps somebody would still link it with weather report, or jojo's bizarre adventure, or anything similar. I'm looking for sing...
@Færd My bro said to me, "When I went to the States, I waited to know if she was indeed the person I was looking for". I have to change it into reported speech. I'm very confused about if I should change the italicized 'was' to 'had been'.
@MattE.Эллен anyway, I'm actually only being half facetious this time. I've seen all those viral videos of some Brits doing like 50 different accents. With a million billion trillion other Brits commenting OMG this so accurate. And yet I watch it and their Italian is Bronx at best, their French is clearly not French at all, and their Russian couldn't be further away from Russian if they spake Turkish on the Moon.
@Færd okay thanks... Got it :) Actually grammar books write that "simple past is always changed to past perfect". There are cases when this rule doesn't apply.
So, for example, I know that in the language of Nakanai, they do infixation as part of their standard grammar that is similar to the way that hip-hop artists do iz-infixation ("house" -> "hizouse")
@RegDwigнt Yeah... Thanks a lot for that. :) I can say that every grammar book I've got does this. I sometimes frame my own sentences in my mind and that's where I get stuck.
As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I take a look at the Balrog and realize there's not much left 'Coz Gandalf's blastin' and laughin' so long, that Even my mama thinks that his mind is gone.
This one please. Sadao as a boy, had climbed the pines as he had seen men do in the South when they (had) climbed for coconuts. Here I think we should use the past perfect because we're talking about an earlier point in time in parenthesis. Should we or is it okay without "had"? Please tell me. Thank you.
To me, the simple "climbed" refers to the general activity, while "had climbed" refers to a particular instance of it.
Also to me, there's just too much Past Perfect in this sentence altogether.
There's like four layers, each happening before the last. That's just too much. English only has two. And most other languages only have one. One is perfectly enough.
Also, do you say that in Eng, we have two layers, past and past perfect and that it's good to use at most two layers in a sentence? I'm quite new to English so unaware of these rules. :)

I made a question from the same article beforehand.
There is one more question.
Blockquote
There are centuries of trial and error inside the “hero’s journey,” in which a young man is called to adventure, challenged by trials, faces a climactic battle and emerge...
@RegDwigнt I think "enter link description here" is a marvel of communication all by itself. Too bad it didn't communicate anything to this supplicant.
Also "Blockquote" ... perhaps we may assume it means "Blockhead" in this instance?
Possibly a simple logic trick. The slow path in addition is carry propagation (not the individual half-adders). You can thus often double the clock rate by pipelining the carry. If you pipeline the carry, then you can reuse the bit adders at the beginning of the chain, and put them at the end....
Original Data Analysis
In April 2019 there was an investigation performed that looked at the number of users who regularly post and vote on Meta Stack Overflow, and how answering on Stack Overflow predicted that participation.
The results were that posting and voting on Meta is done by 200-300...
> The results were that answering on Stack Overflow had a weak positive correlation with participating on Meta. The results also showed that answering on Stack Overflow had a weak positive correlation with participating on Meta
But did the results also show that answering on Stack Overflow had a weak positive correlation with participating on Meta?
Also, did the results show that answering on Stack Overflow had a weak positive correlation with participating on Meta?
Also also, and most to the point: what is Stack Overflow?
