Default Rewrite the following in your own simple words.

Rewrite the following in your own simple words.
Of one great Father, in whatever clime.
Nature or change hath cast the seeds of life-
All tongues, all colours: neither after deaths.
Shall we be soared in to languages
And tints, white, blacks, and tawny, Greek and Goth.
Northmen, and offspring of hot African;
The All-Father, He is whom we live and move.
He, the indifference Judges of all, regards.
Nations, and hues, and dialects alike.
According to their work shall they be judged, When even-handed in scale
Their good and evil weighs.

The sentence doesn't seem to be right anyway. And by further addition of words it will fully change.

Default @ faisal memon

Make corection , m girl, Ramsha khan not borther.

I am surprised how it could be

Although he is senior than any officer yet he is not promoted.
Although he is senior yet he is not promoted.


With any , other is always used. With Although, yet is used.

You can say as
Although he is senior than any other officer yet he is not promoted. gramatically yet is used. Confirm it. M dead sure about my statement althoug hm not claiming tobe perfect.

She is succeeded to win the first prize.
She succeeded to win the first prize.


You have changed sentence into past. if I wana tell some other person about her achievement on the same day , then what should we say?

@ lord Avalon,

thanks, I was thinking so.

Correction will be appreciated.

Default @ ramshahkhan I appreciated . keep it

With any , other is always used. With Although, yet is used.

You can say as
Although he is senior than any other officer yet he is not promoted. gramatically yet is used. Confirm it. M dead sure about my statement althoug hm not claiming tobe perfect.

My dear daughter I think Although n though is conjunction. n we can nt used both conjunction at same time. Reference Exploring The World English. page no 467.
Though he is fat yet he runs fast.
Though he is fat but runs fast.
Though he is fat still runs fast.
this is correct Though he is fat, he runs fast.
So we can say that
Although he is senior than other officers, he is not promoted.
thanks, I was thinking so.

Correction will be appreciated
regds.

open for comments.

The world War has been ended in 1945 and Pakistan has been sine 1947.
I don't know even if its a sentence,
"Pakistan has been ??? since 1947."
There is something missing, putting a verb wont justify as the meaning of the sentence will drastically change.

The world War ended in 1945 and Pakistan came into being in 1947.

Its the best solution according to me.
