Hello TalkChelsea, I'm here to help people with their grammar and what they can do to improve it. Let's start with the basics. You always start with your sentence with a capital letter, no matter what the word is. Other words that should start with a capital letter that aren't at the beginning of the sentence are important words like the name of a person, place, city, month, day, holiday, etc.. Example: A: I really don't like Salomon Kalou. B: Who's* Salomon Kalou? A: The Footballer who plays for Chelsea. *Who's becomes 'Who is', so you don't use the word 'Whose'. Many people get confused by this, so I will try to explain it as best as I can. When you use an apostrophe in a word like It's, that apostrophe is replacing a letter, and in this case It's replacing an I. So if you replace the apostrophe with an I, it becomes 'It is'. Its basically means 'belonging to'. Example of using 'It's'. It's really frustrating to see Torres playing like Emile Heskey. Example of using 'Its' The dog is burying Its bone in the backyard. Vowels: A, E, I, O, U. (An) Consonants: B, C, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, W, X, Y, Z. (A) You only use the word 'an' before a word that begins with a vowel. You never use an before a word that begins with a consonant. Example: (Vowel) My friend is an Accountant. Example: (Consonant) My friend is a Miner. Try not to use 'but' or 'and' at the beginning of the sentence. Example: But I am still waiting for her reply. Replace 'But' with However, Although or Nevertheless. Example: And he was running very fast. Replace 'And' with Moreover, In addition or Furthermore. Two small tips. When you write i in a sentence, it becomes capital I, not small i, and 'a lot' is two words, not one. Example: Even though I hate Manchester United, Wayne Rooney is still a great Footballer. Example: I hate Manchester United a lot. That's all I've got now, I'll add more information once I know what to write about. Hope you learned a few things. - Beast.
