My first topic is Correction of errors and reasons:

Brother that's a very altruistic initiative on your part and as long as you are discussing Errors and their reasons, I would also like to contribute.


First two mistakes are in your very subject Title, English Grammer is wrong alphabetically, GrammAr is correct spelling.

English grammar is a singular subject so it won't take a Plural pronoun so English grammar and their usage is wrong, English grammar and its usage is correct.

Which was Thought is wrong, which was taught is correct.


Don't get disappointed, we all are here to learn. Keep sharing and keep helping

Just a confirmation. Isn't the usage of as long as inappropriate in the sentence and shouldn't it be - "Brother that's a very altruistic initiative on your part and AS you are discussing Errors and their reasons, I would also like to contribute."

Dear First of all would like to say thank you for your effort. This forum is a good platform for all aspirants, who want to break the nutshell of both english papers,so called a big chunk. Please keep posting your lectures to exchange the knowledge so all can abjure the philosophy of anachronism and keep learning to get more and more knowledge.If any thing contradicts, we all are here to resolve.

My dear friend I have used as long as correctly...See following Justification:

As is used as a conjunction when something else is happening and some other things is also going on in parallel BUT both are related to each other or say both are contingent on each other in some respect, see following examples:

I watched TV as she was getting ready. (Means that they both have to go together but as long as she gets ready, the partner does something else)

I made tea as she baked the cake. (Means they are going to take tea and cake together, one is making tea while other is baking cake)

As long as is basically a conditional, means it says that a certain things happens as another thing is happening or happens and former is happening because the latter happened, see following examples:

As long as you are discussing horror stories, I would like to share my experience at white castle too. (Now see, he is sharing his experience because horror stories were being discussed, he won't have shared his experience if no such stories had been discussed)

As long as you are discussing grammar rules, I would also like to contribute. (Now this is the perfect example of that structure dear, We can also write this sentence as "If you are discussing grammar rules, I would also like to contribute") It means both structures can replace each other, so my structure is aptly used.

So brother you can see that As long as is literally a conditional, so I have aptly used that there. I hope you will get the point.

Good Luck
