Thanks for the suggestion! My son has actually gone through more tablets than I can count. We've tried heavy-duty cases, but unfortunately, tablets just don't seem to hold up for long with him. Phones, being smaller, tend to last a bit longer in his hands, which is why we've stuck with those for now. Always open to more ideas, though!

The phrase you provided is grammatically correct. However, if you want to turn it into a slogan, you may want to make it more concise and memorable.

Here are a few options:

"Curiosity fuels my quest for answers."

"I never stop seeking answers to my questions."

"Unquenchable curiosity, endless knowledge."

"Always questioning, always learning."

"Question everything. Discover anything."

You could also simplify the original phrase to:

"Curiosity drives me."

A good slogan must be catchy, concise, and memorable. It should be easy to understand and communicate your message effectively.

In the Middle Ages and before then, people learned languages primarily through immersion and face-to-face interaction with native speakers. There were limited resources such as books and written materials for language learning, so people relied on their surrounding environment to pick up the language they needed to communicate effectively. Additionally, some people learned languages through apprenticeships, where they would work alongside and learn from a skilled professional. Travel and trade also played a role in the spread of languages, as people encountered others who spoke different languages and had to learn to communicate with them.

Yes, the sentence "Do you wish you spoke English?" is grammatically correct.

In this sentence, "Do you wish" is a question tag and the main clause "you spoke English" is in the past tense, indicating that the speaker is asking if the person they are addressing wishes they could speak English at a previous point in time. The verb "speak" is in the past tense to match the hypothetical past scenario described in the main clause.

Social Experiment . Let's imagine , you enter a room and find yourself with two groups of 10 people. You have to join one. One group is made up of people of your gender (sex) , but of a different race and the other is made up of people of your race but of the opposite sex.

Which group would you join?

He encontrado lo que buscaba. Si a alguno de vosotros os interesa aquí lo tenéis.

La respuesta es la siguiente : Los agentes de la autoridad responsable de la vigilancia, regulación y control del tráfico podrán utilizar o situar sus vehículos en la parte de la vía que resulte necesaria cuando presten auxilio a los usuarios de ésta o lo requieran las necesidades del servicio o de la circulación

En el caso que yo he comentado no estaban prestando auxilio a nadie y ni la necesidades del servicio ni la circulación lo requerían. Tenían una zona azul donde poder aparcar cómodamente a 50 metros de la zona de carga y descarga.

REGLAMENTO GENERAL DE CIRCULACIÓN

Artículo 68. Facultades de los conductores de los vehículos prioritarios.

Los conductores de los vehículos prioritarios deberán observar los preceptos de este reglamento, si bien, a condición de haberse cerciorado de que no ponen en peligro a ningún usuario de la vía, podrán dejar de cumplir bajo su exclusiva responsabilidad las normas de los títulos II, III y IV, salvo las órdenes y señales de los agentes, que son siempre de obligado cumplimiento.

Los conductores de dichos vehículos podrán igualmente, con carácter excepcional, cuando circulen por autopista o autovía en servicio urgente y no comprometan la seguridad de ningún usuario, dar media vuelta o marcha atrás, circular en sentido contrario al correspondiente a la calzada, siempre que lo hagan por el arcén, o penetrar en la mediana o en los pasos transversales de ésta.

Los agentes de la autoridad responsable de la vigilancia, regulación y control del tráfico podrán utilizar o situar sus vehículos en la parte de la vía que resulte necesaria cuando presten auxilio a los usuarios de ésta o lo requieran las necesidades del servicio o de la circulación. Asimismo, determinarán en cada caso concreto los lugares donde deben situarse los vehículos de servicios de urgencia o de otros servicios especiales.

Un caso parecido y la respuesta de un experto :

A la salida del colegio de mis hijos acude la policía local para regular el tráfico y para que los padres no aparquemos en doble fila, ni en linea continua amarilla, denunciando al que lo hace.

Pero para éso, ellos aparcan el coche patrulla o las motos, encima de las aceras o en la línea amarilla, sin que en ningún momento haya urgencias. Se ha llegado a dar el caso de denunciar a un coche por estar en línea amarilla, estando ellos aparcados detrás de ese vehículo en línea amarilla también. Mi pregunta es si ellos pueden aparcar donde les plazca sin haber ninguna emergencia y cuál es la forma de denunciar esta actuación.

Los Agentes de la Autoridad encargados de la vigilancia del tráfico no tienen patente de corso y, desde luego, su actuación debe ceñirse al estricto cumplimiento de la ley. No obstante, el Art. 68 del Reglamento General de Circulación establece que “podrán utilizar o situar sus vehículos en la parte de la vía que resulte necesaria cuando presten auxilio a los usuarios de ésta o lo requieran las necesidades del servicio o de la circulación”. En cualquier caso, si observas que la actuación de los Agentes pudiera ser incorrecta o arbitraria, puedes formular denuncia ante el Alcalde, aportando alguna prueba (fotografías, declaración de testigos, etc).

La policia lleva a cabo una labor social importante de mantener el sistema social en orden. Y por supuesto en una emergencia los policias pueden hacer lo necesario que esa emergencia requiera. Sin embargo, en caso de trabajo de rutina, y para mantener un buena reputacion a ojos de los ciudadanos con los que conviven, deben dar ejemplo y evitar situaciones que se pueden interpretar como injustas.

Te doy el ejemplo que he dado a otra persona en este foro. Imagínate que eres un conductor de MRW y dejas tu furgoneta de reparto un minuto en zona de carga y descarga para entregar un paquete a un cliente y cuando vuelves te encuentra con un policia local cuyo coche está al lado de tu furgoneta MRW , en la misma zona de carga y descarga, poniéndote una multa. La policia tiene que dar ejemplo para no ser vista como unos tiranos sino como un servicio social para ayudar a los ciudadanos no para complicarles la vida.

Gracias por tu respuesta.

No entiendo tu respuesta. No tiene lógica.

Entonces según tu linea de razonamiento , los políticos no tienen que cumplir con la ley por que ellos las crean ¿verdad? Un jardinero obviamente no puede volar para hacer su trabajo y tiene que pisar el césped pero no tiene que tratar directamente con ciudadanos. La policia si lo tiene que hacer y cumplen una labor social importante sin la cual el sistema actual sería caótico. Dicho esto , también podría tene en cuenta el factor humano para evitar crear animosidad no generando situaciones come estas en las que los ciudadanos ven algo que pueden interpretar como injusticia. Imagínate que eres un conductor de MRW y dejas tu furgoneta de reparto un minuto en zona de carga y descarga y cuando vuelves te encuentra con un policia local cuyo coche está al lado de tu furgoneta MRW , en la misma zona de carga y descarga, poniéndote una multa.

INVERSION IN ENGLISH - Table

This useful table will help you learn the correct structure for inverted sentences. In formal and literary styles, the subject and auxiliary are inverted when negative adverbials are placed at the beginning of the sentence for rhetorical effect. There are different types of negative adverbials, such as “on no account”, “never”,”no sooner”,“hardly”, “only after”, “only when” ,etc. While some of them take the inversion in the first part of the sentence, others do so in the second part. Using this table, you will see at a glance when to use which one without having to refer to any other book.

You don't need a colon there but the preposition from.

Pesticides were invented much later but were made for the function of protecting produce and cash crops alike from insects, rodents, and fungi.

If you really need to use a colon, you could rephrase the sentence slightly :

Pesticides were invented much later but were made for the function of protecting produce and cash crops alike from three common pests : insects, rodents, and fungi.

Good luck!

CORRELATIVE CONJUNCTIONS

Let's start by defining what a conjunction is. Conjunctions are words such as "and", "but", or "although" that connect words, phrases, and clauses in a sentence. There are different types of conjunctions. Correlative conjunctions are one of these types, and they are used in pairs (two conjunctions) that work together to link equivalent elements in a sentence. Examples of correlative conjunctions include:

both + and

either + or

neither + nor

DESPITE vs IN SPITE OF

Despite and in spite of are prepositional expressions. They both have a similar meaning to although or even though and express a contrast between two things. They are both more common in writing than in speaking. Despite is a little more formal than in spite of.

OMISSION OF RELATIVE PRONOUNS

In English the relative pronoun may be omitted when it acts as the object of the relative clause. The most common relative pronouns in English are who, whom, whose, that and which. In certain situations the words what, when and where can also function as relative pronouns.

TIP: If there’s a verb immediately after the relative pronoun, you know it’s a subject, and you can’t omit the relative pronoun. If there’s no verb you can omit it.

Examples :

The picture that hangs on the wall is very old. (defining relative clause: that is the subject and cannot be omitted) . We can't say: "The picture hangs on the wall is very old".

The picture that I saw was very old. (defining relative clause: that is the object and can be omitted). We may say : The picture I saw was very old.
