Hello everyone. So basically what happened is, I popped off the surface of the earth (or ELL, might be) after casting my vote for the moderator candidate. So could someone let me know who became the new mod? There were 4-5 candidates the last I remember.
The comments in this post by the moderator had really hurt me (that was, a long time ago, by the way). But now I see why they point that some Indians do this. I found this post today, by an Indian. If one can think about such usage, what's the harm in actually using it?
In written English (mainly online) I often come across sentences ending with a question or an exclamation mark with a space before it. Is it always just an error or a typo? Or there are cases when it is a correct English, for example after closing parentheses or some other punctuation marks?
Are these sentences correct and meaningful like the original question: "There was only standing room in the court." OR "There was standing room in the court only"?
@EddieKal There is a certain level of debate about this. Some say Bangla is Bangladeh's language, owing to the fact the name was coined from it. Some say the other way round.
I am surprised at seeing ColleenV back. The first time I saw her was when I was a week into here (ELL). Then I discovered last month that she was once a moderator. I rarely saw here the past few months. And now I can see here editing the posts. Glad she is back!
