	J Lewis  +  280192 Fri, 13 Oct 06 12:19 PM At least in BrE "someday" as a single word doesn't exist. That's why B is correct. Another example: "sometimes" as an adverb exists, but when you mean "sooner or later", at an unidentified moment, then it's "some time": two words. It's a common mistake to write "sometime" as one word. I'll leave "green eyes" to someone else! J Lewis Joined on Tue, Sep 5 2006 Italy Regular Member 518 Verbs, Adverbs

	benita  +  280194 Fri, 13 Oct 06 12:23 PM Someday - used to express the future indefinitely.  Example - I know you will succeed someday. Some day - used when you want to be a little more specific with day or time. Example - Why don't you visit me some day? benita Joined on Mon, Jan 31 2005 India Contributing Member 1,667 But I have promises to keep, and miles to go before I sleep, and miles to go before I sleep - Robert Frost

	J Lewis  +  280218 Fri, 13 Oct 06 12:49 PM We usually say "electric" to indicate that somthing works by electricity: an electric light, an electric motor. "Electrical" is more general; "electrical goods" may be machines and lights, but also pieces of cable etc. I'ts a category of products. An "electrical engineer"; he is not electrically operated, his business is electricity. "Electronics" is a specific branch of electricity concerning valves, transistors, diodes rather than machines. By the way, "difference between", not "among". J Lewis Difference Between
