  1) How much DO THESE glasses cost? 

  2 ) How much did THESE glasses cost? 
 This is clear in the past, so forget about &amp;quot;has,&amp;quot; which is used only for recent events, say:  I&amp;#39; ve just bought a pair of glasses.  Also:   There IS   some sugar in the bowl.</description></item><item><title>Some grammar questions, please.</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SomeGrammarQuestions/gbwbg/post.htm</link><pubDate>Wed, 22 Apr 2009 22:10:34 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:508374</guid><dc:creator>Anonymous</dc:creator><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/SomeGrammarQuestions/gbwbg/post.htm</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-508374.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>Hi, there! 
 Here are my questions, please: 
 E.g.: 1) How much does this glasses cost? 
     2 ) How much did this glasses cost? 
     Now, is it also possible to say: How much has this glasses cost ? If so, what&amp;#39;s the difference in relation to example nº 2 ? 
  
 In the sentence: Are there any eggs in the cake? Is it also right to ask: Are there eggs in the cake ? If not, why? 
 In the sentence: There are some sugar in the bowl. Can I also say: There are sugar in the bowl ? Any difference? 
 Thanks, 
 Nique</description></item></channel></rss>
