Why does “is” replace “has”? So why did so many upvote @Peter's comment without deeming his answer worthy of such? |

Why does “is” replace “has”? @Rhodri all I know is that when I say this song has been written by... and this song's written by... they sound very different (there is enough space that the 'as sounds like a separate word) |

“Hardware-counter-based tools” or “hardware-counter based tools”? The answers for both questions linked by @MrHen suggest that there needs to be a dash before based |

“Hardware-counter-based tools” or “hardware-counter based tools”? I may be mistaken here, but would you not say hardware-based tool or counter-based tool? Besides, in the article you and the OP provided hardware counter does not have a dash. |

Standard format for phone numbers? @MT_Head I work for a company that does business cards and letterheads (in the US). The standard we see most often is 000.000.0000 (there's no need for the 1 at the beginning, as any person dialing would know whether or not they should use it). Feel free to add this to your answer. |

Is it appropriate to use 'eagerly' while ending a formal e-mail Do you really eagerly await a response to every formal email you send? I know I sure don't. |

Why does “is” replace “has”? I must strongly disagree, since in AmE, we often do what @Peter Shor mentioned about dropping the h from has. When we do this, song has is clearly not contracted to song's, as we do pronounce the second syllable. The simple dropping of the h is far more likely to cause @Raj's confusion, since he probably heard song 'as (which could be easily mistaken for with song is), not song's. |
