There are a lot of exceptions, of course.  To understand English grammar well, you need to go very far beyond the basics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CJ</description></item><item><title>Re: Basic Rules Of Grammar</title><link>http://www.englishforums.com/English/BasicRulesOfGrammar/nlzp/post.htm#67148</link><pubDate>Wed, 12 Jan 2005 01:55:38 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:67148</guid><dc:creator>Guest</dc:creator><slash:comments>2</slash:comments><comments>http://www.englishforums.com/English/BasicRulesOfGrammar/nlzp/post.htm#67148</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://www.englishforums.com/English/comments12-67148.xml</wfw:commentRss><description>sorry, im not sure how to explain it.
