re: How To Spot An Intransitive Verb? page 2

InchoateknowledgeI started learning English from scratch, without any previous knowledge, three years ago.
I have never met any English teacher, only books and net.

Hi Inchoateknowledge

I would like to congratulate you. You have learned a surprising lot of English in just three years. I get the impression from your posts that yours is a very 'scientific' approach to the language, if I may use that word. I am often baffled by your terminology, but that may be due to my disliking grammatical terms in general. They are used in such a conflicting way, especially in English, which is of course understandable as English is a world language.

I wish you a lot of success in your language acquisition efforts,
CB

Thank you Cool Breeze.

I am a physicist by profession and maybe this is the reason why I (like to) complicate things

Ah, now I see.

Now I see it’s a physicist’s logic which has been analysising the language of English.

It’s uber-cool! [H] I hope you can approach indefinitely to the boundaries of the correctness of modern English grammar.

Arduous as the exploring journey might be, you can have a good view.

Good luck![8]

Inchoateknowledge...I am a physicist by profession...

Ah! Hence your special interest in particles...
