2018年3月2日 · 1b) I eat dinner at home most of the time. Both of these sentences would be viewed as grammatically correct by native speakers. In the case of 1a, 'of' can be elided and have the meaning remain the same. However the same cannot be said of 1b, as illustrated below. 2a) I eat dinner at home all the time. 2b) *I eat dinner at home most the time.

“these, those and, most of all the other” seems both archaic and to suffer, if only slightly “these, those and, most of all, the other” is slightly archaic but hardly suffers “these, those and most of all, the other” seems more natural as well as more clear than …

2015年7月7日 · "But what I remembered most is moving a lot" is correct, with or without "the". Although "the most" is the superlative, preferable. Here, "most" is used as an adverb modifying the verb "remember", meaning "to the greatest extent".

"Most of the children chose cauliflower." Probably means a majority. "Cauliflower was chosen the most." Could be just a plurality. But wow, it's pretty vague.

"All of the time" and "most of the time" can be used, but while the set phrase "most of the time" is natural here, "all of the time" is unnatural. "Always" is more succinct.

2022年4月1日 · Since "most of _____" is a prepositional phrase, the correct usage would be "most of whom." The phrase "most of who" should probably never be used. Another way to think about the difference between the subjective/objective pronouns is to revise the sentence to include a personal pronoun and see which form ( he/him or she/her or they/them ) fit.

2013年10月1日 · Comma use is subjective and in most, but not all cases is a style choice. The only place in that sentence where commas are required is in the list at the end (running, jumping, and swimming). The comma that I've used before and is called an Oxford comma and not all speakers feel it's necessary to include it, so that's a style choice as well.

With the most boldest and best hearts of Rome . This was the most unkindest cut of all. The line is from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, 1601. ANTHONY: […] For Brutus, as you know, was Caesar's angel: Judge, O you gods, how dearly Caesar loved him! This was the most unkindest cut of all; For when the noble Caesar saw him stab,

...perhaps the writer is a fan of Bertrand Russell, whose note to the milkman said In general, please leave a set of bottles equal in number to the set of empty bottles on the step, except where the latter set is null, in which case leave one bottle, reducing by that number the delivery on the next occasion if and only if two or more bottles are present.
