The words India and England sound the same but why are the starting letters different? This question begins with a false premise and boils down to a question of spelling, for which there are no good answers. I'm sorry, but it just doesn't fit here. |

“A plough makes a furrow in the ground” This question is closed. To appeal the closure, you may post a question on Meta to discuss why you think it meets our guidelines and the community may re-open it or may better explain why it doesn't fit here. |

articles in English This is a duplicate in the sense that the referred question will help. It doesn't answer the specifics, it's true, but if you need answers to these particular questions, you are better off asking in chat (you'll need 20 rep). Otherwise, it is too localized to help future visitors. Also, generally speaking, it is best to ask one focused question (with possibly related questions) than to ask many, many questions in one post. It makes it much easier to answer. |

Would you say “wanna” when you want something? @Mitch Narendra is saying wanna = want to, not wanna = want a. |

Is there a gender-neutral word for [aunts and uncles], parents' siblings? This is an answer, not a comment, but it needs a lot more information to be a good one (some citations and an explanation of nibling, for instance). |

what word order is allowed in English sentences I think you've gotten a good suggestion here in the comments. A comprehensive review is really out-of-scope for this site though. If you have a more specific question, we might be able to help you. |

What's the meaning of “contribution” and “contribute” in computer English? I don't understand how this answers your question. I think you are saying that contribution and contribute refer to plugins and more specifically to methods or something related, but I am not sure. Can you clarify your answer? |

Are the terms “welsh” or “welch” (as in reneging on a bet) derogatory toward the Welsh people? The others answers contradict you. They also cite sources. |

Singular or Plural Before List? You may also find other helpful answers in this one. |

Determining sequence @Kris Great, but at the time I wrote the comment, there were only two close votes and they were both for NARQ, not off-topic/migrate. |

Determining sequence @Kris, if you think it should be migrated, you should vote to close as off-topic and indicate that you think it should be sent to ELL. |

“Customer usage” or “customer use”? I marked this as a duplicate, but if the answers there don't satisfy you, please edit your question to clarify your confusion (that is, to explain why you think either one might fit). |

Use of “though” versus “however” I hear you, and I think this would make a good and interesting Meta topic, if you care to post one. |

Use of “though” versus “however” We can't delete what we don't see. If it's not flagged, it's invisible to us. If enough users flag something as rude or offensive, it will be deleted automatically (without mod intervention), so the community also has the power to erase. |
