I hear people using "Is that make scene" in conversations, but isn'tit grammatically correct to say "Does it/that make sense" ? New Member 06 thanks for your reply, does "Is that make sense" actually exist? because I'm not sure if I heard it correctly... New Member 06 It's not correct."Is that making sense?", perhaps, but I prefer the simple present version.  I'm glad to help, but I'm not a native! And please excuse my typos... Disorder, Americans often do not enunciate every syllable. Many times it will be slurred or skipped altogether. What you may have heard, I suspect, could be someone saying <'s it make sense>, which is a lazy way of saying <does it make sense>. But American people get so used to speaking this way, a lot of people do get confused. Another example is <could have> which is most of the time pronounced as <could've> or <coulda>. So instead of enunciating <I could have done it too> most people say <I coulda done it myself>. An unfortunate outcome here is that a lot of people when they write this phrase they write it like <I could of done it myself>. It's funny but sad. To err is human, to forgive divine.
