There is a lot of players under teams like azubu that we rarely hear about, do they live with the team and practice a lot? Or are they just casual players. | ||

As a non-native speaker the hardest part is "article" (the / a) I also confuse those things (that/which , who/whom) Since Korean language doesn't have "present perfect", Sometimes I confuse with "past" ex) I have purchased HOTS! ex) I purchased HOTS! By the way, I'm going to post my feelings at the past tournaments ! It will start with 2010 GSL open season 1! hope you guys are enjoyed | ||

"Thanks for the grammatical corrections!" = correct, because you are talking about the specific grammatical corrections that people have made for you in this thread. "The" = a specific thing. "A/an" = an unspecific thing. Ex1: "Give me the book!" = Give me that specific book. Ex2: "Give me a book!" = Give me any book. There's another slightly more complicated way to look at it: "The" refers to old information, and "a/an" refers to new information that the speaker introduces into the sentence. Ex3: "I read a book last week. The book was not very good." = The first time I mention the book, I am introducing a new item into the conversation, so I use "a/an." But in the second sentence, the listener/reader now knows that I am talking about that book I read last week; it is now old information, so I can use "the book." I hope that makes sense, but let me know if it doesn't. I'll write more on the other grammar things if nobody else chimes in, but I need to collect my thoughts on them a little bit. It's always difficult to explain grammar. | ||
