I am a student- B.Tech. Also, a non-native English speaker who's trying to learn English in a much practical way, through communication. I have many doubts to ask. I will get them clarified as and when I have time.

“Feel free to hit me up” — “at”? “on”? “via”? Incidentally, I have seen this post. Now that I am an English-as-a-second language learner, I have observed that the sentences in the actual question are not grammatically correct: a lack of parallelism. Am I right? If no, please explain me the wrong thing in my observation? I may sound to be fastidious but still I don't want to be in doubt about the rules I am following to learn English, and hence; I am asking this question. I my opinion it should be: "Feel free to hit me up via this@emailaddress.com, as well as via Twitter or/and via Facebook." Please correct me If I am wrong. |

A word for “modify/delete/change a newspaper article” Thank a lot. onelook.com is awesome. I found the word- it's "redact." :) :). Does my question, in anyway, lead to the answer(redact) from your point of view? else how could I re-frame the question in order to get the correct answer? |

A word for “modify/delete/change a newspaper article” These may be the words;To be precise, I am looking for the word which I read long ago on BBC website regarding some politics issue. Unfortunately, I didn't take a note of it. Could you help me in the way my search of the word on the web should be directed (how to find out a word from (bottom-top)its meaning to the word-may sound silly ;p) |

Meaning of a statement from The Economist That's nice to hear of some good book. Hey, I want a list of some of the best sources on the web for standard, refined English articles, for that matter any good English language site. Could you help? |

Meaning of a statement from The Economist Interesting to know such dissection of the sentence is possible as I haven't done this type of analysis. It seems you have got my problem exactly. |

Meaning of a statement from The Economist thank u. It's so easy as you explain but why not as I read :) Is this sentence a bit convoluted, in its sense, to produce the intended notion? Somehow, I didn't get its meaning after many attempts. After all I am an ESL learner... :) |

Quotation mark usage in the sentence given So, can I conclude that the words are not approved by the author? My reason : why is there a need for anyone to quote specific words when they can as well quote the whole thing(from source) in direct speech. Based on this can I come to a conclusion- when ever smaller parts of sentences quoted by others are put in quotations- that the author is not approving the literal meaning of the quoted words? Please do help me. I am facing difficulty while comprehending some writings:especially when there are quite a "good" [:)] number of quoted words in paragraphs. |
