Neteyam's first birthday!
Language notes under the cut:
so, the third panel there: Jake doesn't forget what day it is, he just has no idea how to express "May 28th" in Na'vi, so he switches to English.
The Na'vi of course don't traditionally use the 12-month calendar we have here on Earth. However, there is a way to express such dates in the language...mostly, I suspect, for the convenience of us nerdy fans who want to talk about our humany matters in Na'vi lol, but I believe the in-universe explanation is that they learned about it from Grace and only really use the terms if they need to talk in sky people timetables for whatever reason.
Because it's a borrowed concept, the terms are quite literal descriptions: "month" is vospxì, which is short for vosìpxì zìsìtä, literally meaning "one-twelfth of a year". To name specific months, you just add their number: May is therefore vospxìmrr, essentially "one-twelfth-of-the-year number five".
As for the day, that's actually a little trickier because Na'vi counts in base 8, not base 10. Instead of thinking of this number as two-tens-plus-eight like we do, they'd think of it as three-eights-plus-four: pxevosìng. Unless you're very good at math (which I am not lol), these decimal-to-octal conversions can be really hard to keep track of/calculate on the fly even before you try to start applying the Na'vi vocabulary!
All that to say, "May 28th" in Na'vi would be something along the lines of trr apxevosìve vospxìmrrä - 28th day of May, or most literally, "28th day of one-twelfth-of-the-year number 5".
...yeah, I don't blame Jake for just switching back to English for this 😅
on a much smaller note, I am not 100% certain that the adverb nìpxi can be used in this sense of "exactly/precisely", but I asked around among some other speakers and they generally agree that it's the best option available so I'm gonna roll with it. If it turns out to be wrong, well, I can always fall back on the "it's Jake" excuse lol

Bi-
Here’s a group of roots that relate to breadth, amount, and multiples of things, and that may or may not be related. I’m generally not 100% certain of many of these reconstructions; I don’t think there’s enough material to create a perfectly (or even mostly) watertight explanation for these and besides, many of the words here are the kind that resist a transparent explanation. Thoughts and ideas are welcome.
*bid, ‘amount’
bid (adv), ‘so (degree), to the extent of’
luubid (adv), ‘enough’ < luu- + bid, perhaps “sufficient amount”?
I’ve personally extrapolated from this that ‘bid as a suffix could mean ‘a measure of something,’ like English -ful > hosha’bid (spoonful), buyca’bid (bucketful), gaambid (handful), iru’bid (armful). And also that luu- might mean something like “sufficient” or “to suffice,” giving a verb luur, ‘to suffice.’
*bi-, ‘wide, broad, vast’
bikadinir (v), ‘to stab (with a broad blade), to run through’ < bi- + kad (sabre) + din(to give) + verbal suffix — from this I would hazard the guess that bi- means ‘wide, broad’.
cu’bikad (n), ‘an indoor game that involves stabbing blades into a chequered board - a cross between darts, chess and ludo’ < cu- (four) + bi- + kad (sabre), lit. “four broadswords(?)” — the game is played with daggers, so either the bikad here is metaphorical or in Mando’a it doesn’t mean a literal broadsword, but has perhaps diminished into a mere dagger.
I’ve also wondered if abiik, ‘sky,’ might not belong to this group? Possibly originally meaning something like ‘wideness, vastness.’ It could be unrelated as well, though; perhaps the root there is *ab- instead of *bi-; it’s hard to say anything conclusive because there aren’t enough clearly related examples to clarify the relationships here.
I’ve personally been using bila (from bi- + adjectival suffix) as an adjective/adverb meaning ‘wide(ly), broad(ly), vast(ly).’
*bin-, ‘stack,’ ‘bundle,’ or ‘bunch’
bines (n), ‘stack’ <bin- + nominal suffix meaning ‘a thing’
binesor (v), ‘to stack’ < bines + verbal suffix
bintar (adv), ‘both’ < possibly bin + t’ad, i.e. “two things”?
ebin (adv), ‘either’ < possibly eyn + bin, i.e. “one thing”?
An example of Fando’a derivation would be the binil, ‘a non-essential part’ (cf. paril ‘an essential part’) by MandoCreator Language Team.
*bir-, ‘harness, tackle, rig’
birgaan (n), ‘backpack’ < Doylist etymology is that this word comes from Bergen, a Norwegian backpack manufacturer and a British military slang word for a backpack (according to word of god). However, I like a Watsonian etymology (i.e. glossing it like it’s a native word) bir- + gaan, especially since it seems like Traviss used bir- elsewhere as well.
birikad (n), ‘baby carrying harness’ < bir- + ik’aad (baby)
birov (adv), ‘many’ < possibly from bir- + -ov, a nominal suffix that usually creates abstract nouns? The semantic link could be something like rig > arrangement of many things > many-ness.
Bir- from birov has been used in many a Fando’a word to mean ‘many, multiple’. Some examples by Aay’han Community (modifications mine): bir’ca’nara (often), bir’pirimla (universal, multipurpose, something that has many uses), birakir (1. multitask 2. to be multipurpose, perform many functions), birakyc (multitasking, multipurpose).

hiya I'm the the anon from the writing thingie c: I will also get an emoji it's gonna be this one 🌺 tysm for the tips!!! If you don't mind me asking more could you go more in depth about sentence structure? I GENUINELY suck with them ,_, my brain can just think in one way and as a result it ends so stiff it makes me cry
Love your fics sm, I will read finish my missing chapters of IWMOY you'll hear about me again trust 🫵
[previous]
Good to see you again anon! And no, I don’t mind at all :3 (sorry this response took a while)
Now, I’m no expert when it comes to sentence structure or literature in general (in fact, I am considered the dumbass in my friend group), so if you want actual solid information, maybe an English teacher or a video from someone who studies/teaches these things would be better at this.. 😭 take my advice as things I use/do myself in my OWN writing. I’ll try to keep it simple and brief tho!!
In order to understand sentence structure, you have to consider everything you’re going to be putting in your writing. That means: the story, dynamic, scenes, character, scenario, emotions, and what you are trying to convey.
Certain scenes require a specific way of structured details to convey emotions/story. Words can be very complicated, so I do recommend expanding on your vocabulary by looking up synonyms of over repetitive words; or, you can do my favorite which is genuinely just reading old poetry to look at their usage of old vocabulary.
When you have a scene in mind, you have an option to keep a Simple Sentence or use one of the many sentence structures.
Let’s go use the sentence example I used earlier! This is a scene of chapter 10 from my fic! The contexts of the scene can help paint a picture to my explanation!
Tumblr media
Now, let’s make the original sentence into a simple sentence:
“Cooper smiled.”
Note: not all simple sentences are bad. Simple sentences are good for clarity, but they can also be impactful in heavily complex situations (ex. fear, shock, realization, etc.)
The most common and known sentence structures are Compound, Complex, and Compound-Complex
• Compound is when there are two or more independent clauses. They’re usually joined by coordinated conjunction (words like: and, but, nor, or, yet, so), a semicolon, or a conjunctive adverb. It balances ideas in a single sentence.
Example: “Cooper tilted his head, and he smiled.”
Complex sentences is when independent clause has a dependent. (They usually have words like: because, although, since, if, while)
Example: “Cooper smiled because of Emilio’s reaction.”
Complex-Compound is when there are basically two or more of the ones above. You can use it to express relationships between ideas or actions.
Example: “Cooper tilted his head, a smile curled his lips because of Emilio.”
These are the most common type of sentence structures, and probably the ones you will learn in elementary writing class. But there’s actually different type of sentence structures I like to use: Periodic, Loose, Balanced, and Run-on
Periodic sentences are my favorite style overall. It’s when the main cause/idea is put in the end for dramatic effect. It’s really good for when you want to add suspense or emphasize a conclusion.
Example: “With the tilt of his head and a slight curl of his lips, Cooper smiled.”
Loose sentences (I believe they’re called cumulative lmaooo, I just like calling them loose) is when the center cause is at the beginning and it’s followed by phrases that elaborate on it.
Example: “Cooper smiled, tilting his head slightly, lips curling into a smirk.”
Balanced is exactly what it sounds like. It’s when phrases or clauses are similarly structured to create a rhythm. It makes it more elegant in a way.
Example: Cooper tilted his head, and his lips curled into a smile.
Run-on sentences are usually when more than two independent clauses are joined together improperly. Majority of teachers will tell you run-on sentences are bad. But I like to use them once in a while. Intentional run-on sentence can really help with creating a rushed or even overwhelming flow. If created properly in specific scenes, you can really do a lot with them. I tend to use other techniques to stretch my sentences a lot. Which brings in to my next topic!!
Figures of Speech and Wordplay!!!
There are ALOT of them. So I’m just gonna name the ones I myself commonly use.
Simile- a comparison to something (ex. like, as)
Personification- giving human qualities to non-human things
Metaphors- a direct comparison to enhance depth/symbolism
Hyperbole- exaggerates things for dramatic effect or emphasis
Onomatopoeia- words that mimics sounds to add sensory details. You can even use this as symbolism!! I’ve done it with ticking sounds!
Irony- yeah. I use this a lot… it adds a bit of wit and humor in my opinion
Euphemism- polite/mild phrasing. Makes things less tense.
Idioms- kinda works like a fun metaphor. It’s when a phrase has a figurative or non-literal meaning that is different from the actual meaning. Most famous one is: “it’s raining cats and dogs.”
Epistrophe- repeating words/phrases at the end of the clauses. It can add emphasis and focus, I usually add these in dramatic (mainly lovey-dovey) moments
Remember how we were talking about run-on sentences and such? Well, another thing that can really enhance a sentence is, of course— PUNCTUATION!!!
The most common ones I like to use besides the obvious commas are the Hyphen, Em Dash, Colon, Semicolon, Parentheses, Ellipses, and Apostrophes! I know there is a proper way to use them, but I like to be a little gangster and use it in my own way (I’m deadass doing my own thing)
I tend to use Em Dashes (—) and Semicolons (;) almost the same, it’s usually when I’m trying to stretch a sentence for dramatic flair or when I’m genuinely trying to put two thoughts together.
I mainly use Hyphens (-) like en dashes lmaoo. It’s usually when I’m doing an interruption/stutter in dialogue or thought process.
Colons (:) are really good when you want to introduce quotes, indicate ratios, or emphasize key points.
As for Parentheses (()) (<—lol), yeah. I use it to add clarity, internal thoughts, or simple witty comments that usually wouldn’t sit well in the sentence. Depending on the character, this can really help paint their personality!
Ellipses (…) cause an omission in a sentence. It usually helps build in suspense or trial thoughts. Very good for those angsty scenes! Especially in dialogue!
I don’t use Apostrophe the way it should be used most of the time. I actually love using them to create internal thoughts. Maybe it’s just a me thing, but I don’t like using italics for first person internal thoughts… I feel like it confuses me a lot!! Like, imagine you’re reading a third person story, and then they use a first person internal thought in italics?? Eugh. It’s not a bad thing, it’s just a little peeve of mine. AND THAT SAYS SOMETHING FROM SOMEONE WHO USES ITALICS ALL THE TIME. There are certain times you should use italics for internal dialogue and others with apostrophe. A quick guide I use is:
Italics- unconscious thoughts/emotions in the back of your mind.
Apostrophe- thoughts/emotions so clearly heard, even a mind reader could listen to it.
Human emotions are so complex, and not all the time are they clear and precises, so I express that through using these methods.
All of this talk mainly involves with dialogue, and that’s not the conversation of this topic, so maybe we can talk about this some other day if you’re interested :)
Anyways. I’m explaining all of this and all— and I’m pretty sure your main question is now: “Great! This was very informative! So, how do I use them?”
Well… that’s why I said that in order for your sentence structure to work is to consider your scene, characters, scenario, etc. If you do not understand what you’re trying to explain or emphasize, then you won’t know what will work. You can’t have a witty character using metaphors and euphemism when they’re more likely to express themselves with idioms and think in Run-Ons. Simple sentences are good for shock value, but you can’t keep all of them short and simple when you’re not even emphasizing on why the scene is shocking. If you use too much of one structure, it becomes so over repetitive and brain numbing (and at some tragic points: cringe). You have to have a balance between all of them. Maybe you can start a paragraph with a Loose sentence and end it with a periodic; vice versa can work too.
I can’t really tell you what’s the proper way of using them cuz if I’m being honest… I’m also learning too. Overall, all of these differ per person, because just like every artist, it’s a writing style. I have certain quirks and preferences in my own writing that maybe others don’t like, or may be seen as improper. As you grow as a writer, you start to develop your own style! There is sooooo much more I could say of the topic, but that would be yet ANOTHER essay (I said I was gonna keep this brief too!! SHEESH!!). But if you still have any other questions regarding my writing style/advice, do not be afraid to keep on asking!! ٩( 'ω' )و

Привет!) у меня есть вопрос о также/тоже. In my class we just looked at тоже/а ещё, but this distinction was how I understood также/тоже. My teacher said they’re synonyms, but all linguists know synonyms are a myth! I thought it would be: я говорю по английский, а также по русский // if someone else speaks English they would say я тоже. As in, я также would give us further information while тоже applies older info to someone else too. Am I far off here? Thank you :)
Привет!
First of all, you are absolutely right, absolute synonyms are a myth, there are only words that may more or less overlap in their meanings, but their usage, register, and compatibility with other words would be different. Otherwise, the language would get rid of the excess.
-- Я говорю по-английски, а также по-русски. (note there's no -й in the ending when you add по- at the beginning, as these words became technically adverbs, not adjectives) -- Я тоже!
This is correct. And you could say -- Я говорю по-английски, а ещё по-русски.
This is also correct, but leans towards colloquial conversation. I would use ещё in a casual chat, and а также if I wanted to sound more academic :)
I usually explain the difference between тоже and также as the following:
When one person does two or more things, it is также.
When two or more persons do the same thing, it is тоже.
-- Он съел три тарелки супа, четыре котлеты, а таже два куска торта. He ate three bowls of soup, four cutlets, and (also) two pieces of cake.
-- Она тоже съела два куска торта! She ate two pieces of cake too!
With the example about him, I could say:
-- Он съел три тарелки супа, четыре котлеты, и ещё два куска торта. He ate three bowls of soup, four cutlets, and two pieces of cake on top of that.
This ещё make it sound more "on top of that!" conveying that I am quite impressed with his appetite.
I hope my explanations were not too confusing :)

Hello! I hope you're having a good day! I was wondering about the grammar part of the lexicon, and how to make sentences from the words we know. You are awesome and hopefully this ask isn't too bothersome.
This post is part of my ongoing project to create a language for the Eliksni! For more information check out my masterpost linked here.
Conlang asks are never bothersome, dearest anon!
*sound of Pandora's Box opening* So you wanna know about grammar, eh...?
Lexicon technically speaking is just a language's vocabularly, so everything on the public spreadsheet. I do have links to some important foundational grammar on my masterpost, but my early posts were more focused on dumping all the raw info out in one go, not teaching. Therefore, I'll give you (and everybody else) a little Eliksni grammar primer!
Sentence-making gets very complicated very fast, so I'll mostly provide some basics here and then link to posts I have on more specfic topics so this post doesn't turn into "do you love color of the sky, conlang edition".
Eliksni word order is Verb-Subject-Object. Prepositions come before the nouns they modify (that's actually why they're called prepositions!). Adjectives also come before nouns. Adverbs have pretty flexible placement, similarly to English.
Possessives: two ways to form them, examples on this post.
Comparing things: see this post.
Forming plurals: see this post for basics and this post for updates/details about special cases.
Relative clauses come after nouns. Relative clauses modify nouns and are introduced by words like that, which, who, etc. in English. In Eliksni, en is used to start a relative clause on the direct object and yan is used to start one on the indirect object. I will make a dedicated post for this with examples and such.
Thank you for your patience (I've been moving back into my hometown for summer so things have been hectic the last few days). I'm very sorry if this is not as in-depth as you wanted or needed! If you need help with translating a sentence or want to know how to do something I haven't made a post on yet, please send me another ask or drop me a message, I'll be happy to help.
Also, I definitely plan to make a better, much longer post going over all this stuff (and more) with examples and explanations, it was just too much for me to finish it before Question Week ends tonight.

🏃‍♂️Suffix -하다
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
click the read more for a more detailed explanation :) Here's the link to our instagram post!
When you learn Korean, you may come across the word “하다” a lot. However, you may find that sometimes it works as a verb by itself while others seem combined with other words. 
하다 is usually used as a verb, meaning “to do something”. 
나는 매일 운동을 한다. (I exercise every day.)
나는 어제 공부를 열심히 했다. (I studied very hard yesterday)
To translate more literally word-by-word, the sentences above would look a bit more like “I do exercise every day” or “I did study very hard yesterday”. 
However, you can also combine -하다 as a suffix to nouns to make various verbs and adjectives. Basically, -하다 can make nouns into something that has the quality of a verb, which can become a predicate.
Examples for -하다 verbs: 비행하다, 공부하다, 노��하다, 집중하다, 사랑하다
Examples for -하다 adjectives: 건강하다, 순수하다, 중요하다, 유용하다, 가난하다
(check the images above for each meaning and pronunciation!)
So what is the difference between a verb and an adjective in Korean? Well, adjectives, or 형���사, in Korean, aren’t very similar to adjectives in English, which usually refers to words used to describe nouns. In Korean, 형용사, or adjective describes the state or condition of the subject. If you check the meanings for the -하다 adjectives in the images above, you will notice most of them start with “to be”, which is the main difference between the verbs. 
A commonly known adjective would be “예쁘다”, which means “pretty” (to be pretty). While both can be conjugated and act as predicates in a sentence there are some key grammatical differences, which is why in Korean we differentiate these two parts of speech. For example, adjectives cannot combine with the word ending -ㄴ다 (present tense ending). 
Example:
나는 공부한다. (I study) (O)
나는 예쁘다 (I am pretty) (O) / 나는 예쁜다 (X)
-하다 not only combines with nouns but can also be combined with adverbs or onomatopoeic words, and sometimes other words as well. It even combines with certain dependent nouns too!
하다 as a verb also has many more meanings than just doing something, and it is an extremely versatile word. It can mean “to make” or “to dress/wear” in certain contexts, or could even refer to causation. It’s also used as another auxiliary/assistant verb (보조 동사), usually as the form -게 하다, which makes causatives(사동 표현). However, these are more advanced uses and aren’t the focus of this post, but perhaps in the future we can dive deeper into the various uses of the word “하다”.  
Additionally, if you are an advanced learner and know quite a lot about Korean grammar, you may be questioning whether -하다 itself is a suffix or -하- is the suffix while -다 should be seen as a simple ending (종결어미). After all, when you conjugate -하다 words like 공부하다 into 공부하니, 공부하여, you will find that -하- is the suffix adding the new meaning while -다 is just the ending for the base form.
According to 국립국어원(the National Institute of Korean language) -하- is the suffix that makes nouns into verbs while -다 is an ending, but sometimes dictionaries such as the 표준국어대사전 mark it as -하다 (the whole) as a suffix which can be a source of confusion. Since I didn’t want to explain too much about the grammar behind the conjugation of endings, I simply referred to the suffix as -하다 in this post. Of course, this distinction does not have much use for foreigners learning Korean but may be an interesting tidbit for advanced learners or native speakers who are interested in advanced grammar! 
Thank you for reading! Please leave a like and reblog if you enjoyed :)

マクス先生、I’ve been thinking about く form. In particular, I was wondering whether the くて conjugation can be used directly as an imperative, eg 早くて instead of 早くして. I feel like I’ve heard it in anime before, but it’s not a use I’ve really seen described anywhere explicitly.
But that also led me to realize I don’t really understand how this construction works in the first place. I tend to think of く as turning い-adjectives (syntactically if not semantically) into adverbs, and this makes sense for some of the conjugations which use it (eg くない = く(adverb) + ない (verb)), but it notably does not make sense for くて or かった, which both seem to conjugate the く form directly as a verb. Can we reconcile this, or do these conjugations just not have such a pat explanation?
You can think of the -ku form as the ren'youkei of the adjective. The ren'youkei of ordinary verbs is the form you find before -masu, or sometimes on its own followed by ni iku or so on. I forgot what this form is called in English. But for instance the ren'youkei of taberu is tabe, the ren'youkei of hanasu is hanashi, etc. This is basically what the -ku form of adjectives is. Semantically, it is primarily used to turn the adjectives into adverbs, but it also has other uses as you're seeing. Notably, the ren'youkei can also be used to chain ordinary verbs together (it's like a more formal version of the -te form), which is sort of like turning those verbs in adverbs. So it has a similar function with ordinary verbs as well.

12 Essential Rules of English Grammar (With Examples):
Subject-Verb Agreement The subject and verb in a sentence must agree in number (singular or plural).
Singular: The dog barks loudly.
Plural: The dogs bark loudly.
Incorrect: The dogs barks loudly.
Tense Consistency Maintain the same tense throughout a sentence or paragraph unless there's a reason to shift.
Consistent: She went to the store, bought some groceries, and came home.
Incorrect: She goes to the store, bought some groceries, and comes home.
Active and Passive Voice Use active voice whenever possible for clarity and directness.
Active: The teacher praised the student.
Passive: The student was praised by the teacher. (Passive is acceptable but less engaging.)
Modifier Placement Place modifiers (adjectives, adverbs) close to the words they describe to avoid confusion.
Correct: She only eats vegetables. (She eats nothing but vegetables.)
Incorrect: She eats only vegetables. (This could imply timing confusion.)
Another example: The man wearing a red jacket is my father.
Parallel Structure Use parallel structure when listing items, ideas, or actions.
Correct: I enjoy hiking, swimming, and biking.
Incorrect: I enjoy hiking, swimming, and to bike.
Pronoun Agreement Pronouns must agree with their antecedents in number, gender, and person.
Correct: The students forgot their books.
Incorrect: The students forgot his books.
Apostrophe Use Use apostrophes to indicate possession or create contractions.
Possession: This is Sarah's car.
Contraction: You're welcome. (Short for You are welcome.)
Incorrect: Its a beautiful day. (Should be It's a beautiful day.)
Comma Usage Use commas to clarify meaning in lists, separate clauses, and set off extra information.
Lists: I bought apples, oranges, and bananas.
Nonessential clause: My friend, who loves to paint, gave me a handmade card.
Incorrect: I bought apples oranges and bananas.
Independent and Dependent Clauses Use independent clauses as complete sentences and dependent clauses as fragments that depend on the main clause.
Independent: She went to the park.
Dependent: Because she loves nature. (Needs an independent clause: She went to the park because she loves nature.)
Double Negatives Avoid double negatives in formal English, as they create confusion.
Incorrect: I don’t have no money. (Means I do have money.)
Correct: I don’t have any money.
Who’s vs. Whom Use "who's" as a contraction of who is or who has and "whom" as the object pronoun.
Correct: Who's coming to the party? (Who is coming.)
Correct: To whom should I address this letter?
Incorrect: Who's this letter for? (Though common in informal English.)
Your vs. You’re Use "your" to indicate possession and "you’re" as a contraction of you are.
Correct: Your jacket is on the chair.
Correct: You’re going to love this movie.
Incorrect: Your going to love this movie.
These examples provide clarity and practical application for each grammar rule! Let me know if you'd like more examples or further explanations.

1 Corinthians 9:8–10
8 Μὴ κατ�� ἄνθρωπον ταῦτα λαλῶ ἢ καὶ ὁ νόμος ταῦτα οὐ λέγει; 9 ἐν γὰρ τῷ Μωϋσέως νόμῳ γέγραπται, Οὐ κημώσεις βοῦν ἀλοῶντα. μὴ τῶν βοῶν μέλει τῷ θεῷ 10 ἢ διʼ ἡμᾶς πάντως λέγει; διʼ ἡμᾶς γὰρ ἐγράφη ὅτι ὀφείλει ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι ὁ ἀροτριῶν ἀροτριᾶν καὶ ὁ ἀλοῶν ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι τοῦ μετέχειν. 
My translation: 
8 I speak these things not according to man, do I, or does the law not also say these things? 9 For in the law of Moses it has been written, “You will not muzzle a threshing ox.” It is not a concern to God of oxen, is it, 10 or wholly on account of us does it speak? For on account of us it was written that the one plowing is obligated to plow upon hope and the one threshing to thresh upon hope of having a share. 
Notes:
9:8 
μὴ introduces a question expecting a negative answer. The prepositional phrase κατὰ ἄνθρωπον (lit. “according to men”; NRSV, NIV: “on human authority”; NASB: “according to human judgment”; HCSB: “from a human perspective”; NET: “only on the basis of common sense”) modifies the present λαλῶ (from λαλέω). The direct object of the verb is the substantival near demonstrative pronoun ταῦτα, referring to the principles espoused in the rhetorical questions of verses 4–7. 
The disjunctive particle ἢ (“or”) marks an opposing alternative to the preceding question. 
καὶ is adjunctive (“also”). ὁ νόμος is the subject of the present λέγει (from λέγω). οὐ indicates that this question expects an affirmative answer. ταῦτα is the direct object of the verb (see above). 
9:9 
γὰρ introduces an explanation as to why an affirmative answer is expected to verse 8b. 
The locative prepositional phrase ἐν τῷ ... νόμῳ modifies the perfect passie γέγραπται (from γράφω). For the perfect-tense, see note on 1:19. Μωϋσέως is a descriptive genitive. The quotation comes from Deuteronomy 25:4. 
The hapax legomenon κημόω is, “I muzzle”. οὐ negates the 2s future κημώσεις which here functions an imperative, translated “You shall not ...” (NASB, NRSV; NIV, NET, HCSB: “Do not”).   The LXX instead uses the more common term φιμόω, to which several manuscripts ‘correct’ the verb here. 
ὁ βοῦς (8x) is, “head of cattle” (BDAG), probably from βοσκῶ (9x) “I feed, pasture” (cf. English bovine); most translations: “ox”. βοῦν is the direct object of κημόω above. 
ἀλοάω (3x, 2 of which in this passage) is, “I thresh”; most translations: “tread out the grain”. The process refers to crushing kernels to separate the grain from the chaff by means of an ox-pulled slate. The present participle ἀλοῶντα, accusative to match βοῦν, is best taken as adverbial & temporal with κημόω above: “while it is treading” (NRSV; sim. NASB). 
μὴ introduces a question expecting a negative answer. 
The impersonal verb μέλει (“it is a concern”; see note on 7:21) takes a dative, here τῷ θεῷ, to indicate the subject of the concern, and a genitive, here τῶν βοῶν, to indicate the object of the concern (NIV: “Is it about oxen that God is concerned?”). 
9:10 
After the question in verse 9 expecting a negative answer, the disjunctive particle ἢ introduces an alternative (and correct) thesis. 
The causal prepositional phrase διʼ ἡμᾶς (“on account of us”, “for our sake”) modifies the present λέγει (from λέγω) whose unexpressed subject is probably “the law” (Fee). In 5:10 the adverb πάντως meant, “by all means”, “of course”, but here the nuance is, “certainly, probably, doubtless” (BDAG); NIV, NET: “surely”. NRSV’s “entirely” & NASB’s “altogether” take the adverb in its more literal sense, as if to indicate that the teaching was written 100% for our sake, and 0% for the sake of oxen, but most commentators don’t press Paul to mean that God doesn’t care about oxen at all. 
In a reply to a question, γὰρ ‘affirms what was asked’ (BDF §452) and is to be translated, “Yes” (NASB, NIV, HCSB; NRSV: “indeed”; omitted in NET). 
The causal prepositional phrase διʼ ἡμᾶς (“on account of us”, “for our sake”) modifies the aorist passive ἐγράφη (from γράφω). The unexpressed subject of the verb is the quotation above. 
After a verb of communication, ὅτι could recitative (“that”), introducing a paraphrase of the command from Deuteronomy, although most translations take it as causal (“because”) which ICC calls ‘unlikely’ without further explanation. 
ἀροτριάω (3x, 2 of which in this verse) is, “I plow”, from τό ἄροτρον (1x) “plow”. The subject of the present ὀφείλει (from ὀφείλω “I ought”) is the substantival present participle ὁ ἀροτριῶν (“the one who plows”; NASB: “the plowman”). The verb is fronted for emphasis. The present infinitive ἀροτριᾶν (from ἀροτριάω) is complementary with ὀφείλω, and is modified by the prepositional phrase ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι (“The one who plows ought to plow in hope”), also fronted for emphasis. 
καὶ adds a second kind of worker to the thought. The following clause is elliptical, but parallel to the above. 
The articular present participle ὁ ἀλοῶν (from ἀλοάω “I thresh”; see note on v. 9) is substantival and the subject of an implied ὀφείλει, with which an implied present infinitive ἀλοᾶν is complementary. The prepositional phrase ἐπʼ ἐλπίδι modifies the implied infinitive (“and the one who threshes ought to thresh in hope”). The use of the two participles, with separate articles, suggests Paul has different kinds of ministry in mind, i.e., both those who sow and those who reap. “We must understand the ploughing and threshing as metaphors for different stages of missionary work” (ICC). 
μετέχω (8x, 5 of which in 1 Cor.), from μετά + ἔχω, is “share, have a share” (BDAG). The genitive article τοῦ places the present infinitive μετέχειν as an objective genitive after both instances of ἐλπίς above (“in hope of having a share of the produce”).

Tumblr media
Mastering English grammar is a crucial step in achieving fluency and confidence in the language. Whether you’re preparing for an exam, advancing in your career, or simply looking to communicate more effectively, strong grammar skills lay the foundation for success. But with the vast resources available online, how can you ensure you’re using the best tools to truly master English grammar?
In this post, we’ll reveal the secrets to unlocking online English grammar mastery, covering the best strategies, resources, and tips for improving your grammar in a structured and enjoyable way.
1. Start with the Basics and Build a Strong Foundation
Before diving into advanced grammar rules, it’s essential to master the basics. A solid understanding of fundamental grammar concepts will make more complex structures easier to learn. Focus on mastering key areas such as:
Parts of Speech: Nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc.
Sentence Structure: Simple, compound, and complex sentences.
Tenses: Present, past, and future tenses, including continuous and perfect tenses.
Subject-Verb Agreement: Ensuring the subject and verb match in number and person.
Articles and Prepositions: Correct usage of ‘a’, ‘an’, and ‘the’, along with prepositions like ‘in’, ‘on’, ‘at’, and ‘by’.
Online platforms often offer beginner-level courses that cover these basics in a structured way, which is perfect for building your foundation before progressing to more advanced concepts.
2. Engage with Interactive Grammar Tools and Apps
The beauty of learning English grammar online is the ability to engage with interactive tools and apps that make grammar practice fun and effective. These platforms provide a hands-on way to improve your skills through quizzes, exercises, and even games that reinforce what you’ve learned.
Grammarly
Grammarly is one of the most popular grammar-checking tools available. While it’s primarily used for proofreading, it also provides detailed explanations for grammar mistakes. It helps you understand why certain corrections are made and gives you suggestions on how to improve your writing. You can use it while writing emails, essays, or social media posts to improve your grammar on the fly.
Duolingo
Known for its gamified language learning, Duolingo offers bite-sized lessons that incorporate grammar practice into real-world language usage. As you advance through levels, you’ll improve grammar alongside vocabulary and speaking skills.
English Grammar in Use (App)
The English Grammar in Use app by Raymond Murphy is a great tool for mastering English grammar. With clear explanations, exercises, and practice tests, it’s an excellent resource for learners at all levels. It’s based on the popular grammar book of the same name, making it a trusted tool for grammar practice.
3. Take Online Grammar Courses and Tutorials
If you’re looking for more structured, comprehensive lessons, consider enrolling in online grammar courses. Many platforms offer detailed video tutorials, explanations, and assignments to help reinforce learning. Some of the best platforms for online grammar courses include:
Udemy
Udemy offers a range of grammar courses, from beginner to advanced levels. Some courses provide in-depth explanations of various grammar rules, while others focus on specific areas such as verb tenses, punctuation, and sentence structure. You can learn at your own pace, revisit lessons, and access additional resources like quizzes and assignments.
Coursera
Coursera collaborates with top universities and institutions to offer online grammar courses. You’ll find comprehensive lessons that not only teach grammar rules but also incorporate them into real-world situations. The courses often include assignments and peer reviews, allowing you to get constructive feedback.
BBC Learning English
The BBC Learning English website is a treasure trove of free grammar resources, including interactive videos, quizzes, and articles. Their grammar series cover everything from basic to advanced grammar topics, making it a fantastic resource for learners of all levels.
4. Practice, Practice, Practice
The key to mastering any language skill—especially grammar—is consistent practice. Online resources give you the freedom to practice whenever and wherever you like, making it easier to integrate grammar exercises into your daily routine.
Quizlet
With Quizlet, you can create personalized grammar flashcards and quizzes to reinforce your learning. This tool allows you to review key grammar rules regularly, which helps commit them to memory. You can also search for pre-made grammar sets created by other users and practice them until you feel confident.
Kahoot!
Kahoot! is another great resource for practicing grammar. It’s a game-based learning platform where you can participate in quizzes and compete with friends or classmates. You’ll find a variety of grammar quizzes on topics such as verb forms, prepositions, articles, and more.
5. Focus on Practical Application Through Writing and Speaking
Grammar mastery isn’t just about memorizing rules—it’s about using them naturally in communication. Practice your grammar skills through writing and speaking activities, which will help you apply what you’ve learned in real-life situations.
Write Regularly
Set aside time each day to write essays, journal entries, or short stories in English. Try to incorporate new grammar structures into your writing, paying attention to tense usage, punctuation, and sentence structure. Use grammar-checking tools like Grammarly to review your work and spot errors.
Record Yourself Speaking
For speaking practice, use a language exchange app like Tandem or HelloTalk, where you can connect with native speakers or other learners to practice English in real-time. Alternatively, record yourself speaking and listen for grammatical mistakes. Self-correction is a powerful way to identify and eliminate persistent grammar issues.
6. Join Online Grammar Communities
Sometimes, it’s helpful to engage with other learners who are working toward the same goal. Online grammar communities, discussion forums, and social media groups provide a space to ask questions, share resources, and learn from others’ experiences.
Reddit – r/Grammar
The r/Grammar subreddit is a great place to ask grammar-related questions and participate in discussions about grammar rules and usage. It’s a welcoming community of grammar enthusiasts and learners from around the world.
English Forums
There are several dedicated forums for English learners, such as English Forums and Using English, where you can post questions, get answers, and engage in grammar-related discussions. These forums often feature grammar challenges and exercises that allow you to test your skills.
7. Stay Consistent and Patient
Grammar mastery takes time, and progress can sometimes feel slow. However, consistency is key. Make grammar practice a part of your daily routine, even if it’s just for 15-20 minutes each day. Over time, you’ll see significant improvement in your understanding and use of English grammar.
Conclusion
Unlocking the secrets to online English grammar mastery is all about using the right tools, staying consistent, and applying what you’ve learned in practical ways. By combining interactive tools, comprehensive courses, and regular practice, you’ll be well on your way to mastering English grammar with confidence.

Parallelism in English Grammar
Tumblr media
Crafting Balanced sentences-Parallelism
  In English grammar, the phenomenon where similar or parallel elements within a sentence are presented with a balanced and harmonious structure is called parallelism. It involves using the same grammatical form or structure for items in a list, a series, or a comparison to enhance clarity, coherence, and overall readability. Parallelism is often achieved through the use of coordinating conjunctions and correlative conjunctions, as well as by ensuring consistent grammatical structures for the elements involved. Parallelism is a key concept when it comes to balancing elements in a sentence, especially with regard to nouns, verbs, and other grammatical structures.     Nouns: The conference covered topics such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics. Explanation: In this sentence, the parallel nouns artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics share a similar structure, contributing to the balanced construction of the sentence.     Verbs: He likes to run, jump, and play. Explanation: The verbs run, jump, and play are parallel in structure.     Adjectives: The room was cozy, warm, and inviting. Explanation: The parallel adjectives cozy, warm, and inviting have a consistent structure, describing the room in a harmonious way.     Adverbs: She completed the task quickly, efficiently, and accurately. Explanation: The adverbs quickly, efficiently, and accurately are parallel, describing how she completed the task.     Prepositional Phrases: He excels in leadership, in teamwork, and in problem-solving. Explanation: The prepositional phrases in leadership, in teamwork, and in problem-solving are parallel, highlighting areas of excellence.     Parallel Gerunds: They enjoy swimming, hiking, and biking. Explanation: The parallel gerunds swimming, hiking, and biking maintain a consistent structure within the sentence.     Parallel Infinitives: She decided to read, to study, and to relax. Explanation: The parallel infinitives to read, to study, and to relax share a similar structure, contributing to the overall parallelism of the sentence.     Parallel Adverbs: She spoke confidently, clearly, and persuasively. Explanation: The parallel adverbs confidently, clearly, and persuasively maintain a consistent structure, describing how she spoke.     Parallel Clauses in a Sentence: Parallelism is also crucial when dealing with clauses in a sentence. Clauses are groups of words that contain both a subject and a predicate. Here are examples of parallelism with clauses:   Independent Clauses: She enjoys hiking in the mountains, swimming in the ocean, and reading by the fireplace. In this case, the independent clauses hiking in the mountains, swimming in the ocean, and reading by the fireplace are parallel, contributing to a balanced list of activities.     Dependent Clauses: Because she wanted to succeed, Mary devoted extra hours to studying, sought help from tutors, and collaborated with classmates on challenging assignments. In this sentence, the parallel dependent clauses: Mary devoted extra hours to studying, she sought help from tutors, she collaborated with classmates on challenging assignments. They share a similar structure and contribute to the parallelism in the sentence.       Adjective Clauses: The student who is diligent, who is responsible, and who is motivated will excel in any class. The adjective clauses who is diligent, who is responsible, and who is motivated are parallel, describing qualities of the student.       Adverbial Clauses: She completed the assignment as quickly as possible, as efficiently as possible, and as accurately as possible. The adverbial clauses as quickly as possible, as efficiently as possible, and as accurately as possible are parallel, describing how she completed the assignment.        
The Art of Using Conjunctions to Create Harmony in Sentences:
Coordinating conjunctions and correlative conjunctions play a significant role in achieving parallelism in sentences. Let's delve a bit deeper into how these conjunctions contribute to maintaining parallel structure:   Coordinating Conjunctions (e.g., and, or, but, nor, for, so, yet): Example: She likes to hike, swim, and read. The coordinating conjunction and helps connect and coordinate the parallel elements hike, swim, and read in the sentence.    Example: He can either run or cycle to work. The coordinating conjunction or connects and coordinates the parallel actions run and cycle.       Correlative Conjunctions (e.g., both...and, either...or, neither...nor, not only...but also): Example: Both the cat and the dog enjoy the sunny weather. The correlative conjunction both...and pairs and coordinates the parallel subjects the cat and the dog.   Example: She is not only diligent but also resourceful. The correlative conjunction not only...but also pairs and coordinates the parallel adjectives diligent and resourceful.   By using coordinating conjunctions, you can connect elements of the same type in a sentence, creating a sense of balance and parallelism. Correlative conjunctions, on the other hand, work in pairs to emphasize and coordinate parallel elements. These conjunctions are crucial tools for writers seeking to maintain a consistent and harmonious structure in their sentences.                   Parallelism in English Grammar What is Adverbial Modifier of a Sentence What is the Attribute of a Sentence?
