Hi,Clough!

I cann't remember the question exactly ,maybe there's something wrong with it,However,I think the question may like"Red or yellow,which color..."
I think I have to correct the question...

shihouzhuge · Oct 8, 2009, 09:50 PM

I don't know why there's no "Edit" in my question, and I cann't correct it by myself.
Clough,could you help me to correct the question,please?
Change "Which clour do you like b( ) ?" to "Red and yellow,which clour do you like b( ) ?"
Thanks a lot!

This isn't one of the forum topic areas that I moderate, so I can't change your original question, shihouzhuge. It's also already be over 24 hours since you posted the original question. So, you can't edit it either. You could request something like that from the Administration, even after the 24 hours have elapsed.

My suggestion would be to post anything else like this in the Writing forum topic area and make the question something that has to do with writing. I can change anything there.

However, if you do want to change your original question at the beginning of this thread, I wouldn't advise requesting that from the Administration because this thread has already gone on to two pages and responses that have already been given are because of the way the original question was worded.

Thanks!

Thanks a lot!

Ah now we have a context and better would be the correct answer but the sentence would be best if it read

Red or Yellow, which colour do you like b(etter)

AH but you're not Chinese, inscruitable these orientals and capable of reading between the lines

"which colour do you like blue" doesn't make sense unless blue is a name like Bill or Baby and they arn't in Aussie where Blue is a a name

Give up while you are ahead ex
