is 'in co-ordination' used properly? I don't want to confuse with incoordination. how could i word this to read correctly?

I'd change it to collaboration, or "coordinated with project manager", or at the very least, remove the hyphen.

It would help if you used some parentheses to indicate which terms are being divided into which terms!  I suspect that just using the order of precedence for operations will not result in the problem you are actually trying to solve.

The second option is the most correct, with the comma coming before "and" and the last item in the list. In the past few years, however, people keep trying to tell me that you don't need a comma anymore (anything to eliminate a keystroke, I guess). If you are answering a question for an English assignment, I would say you still need a comma. By the way, it's "grammar" and not "grammer." Have a happy day.

Meanwhile is generally used alone.\nIf you need to put 'In the' in front of something, use 'meantime' - not meanwhile.\n\n"provided it doesn't eliminate itself meanwhile."\nor\n"provided it doesn't eliminate itself in the meantime."\nBoth would be logical.\n\n"provided it doesn't eliminate itself in the meanwhile."\ndoesn't make sense. You just muddled the two up, as you suggested! If you find it hard to remember, just think that if you reduce the words to 'while' and 'time' it's obvious. You can't say 'in the while', but you CAN say 'in the time'..!\n; )

2.  "of course"\n\n3.  "He hates to be late." It is assuming an emotion, which is not proper formal writing. \n\n4. "With the proper help..."  I think... I can't really remember my list of prepositions. I'm pretty sure "with" is a preposition, but "although" may be one too. Maybe "although" is a conjunction. Go with "With the proper help..." \n\n1. I'm assuming "By the light of the moon, I tripped over a rock."  This is just a guess, because the sentence doesn't sound right to me. It's been a while since I worked with dangling modifiers.

It ain't so! :) lol******* You aren't alone!\n\nIt gives me a headache trying to figure out where one sentence ends and the next begins. UGH...Don't get me wrong...I misspell an occasional word here and there but we are talking about "minor mistakes".

Dunno where you got this sentence from, but I can only make sense of it if I assume that there's a typing error and the writer means 'carrier' not 'barrier,' where 'carrier' is a method of transport (car, truck, plane, etc.).\n\nIn that case the sentence might be better written as:\n\n'Whether or not distance is related to the available means of transport is not clear, because only the most important carrier could be chosen.' \n\nWhoever wrote that should be taken out and shot. Hope I guessed right.

The first sentence and the last one too are both correctly punctuated, mate, they both make the same sense and are fully acceptable.\n\nIf u have a doubt, u can use this sentence either,"While mother WAS DRIVING, father studied the road map." or this one too,"Father studied the road map while mother was driving."\n\nSentence B and C are definitely wrongly punctuated.\n\nHope it helps mate

I see one run on sentence that needs to be split. I also see two others that should be combined into one\n\nThat said, a good writer never pads the piece. The whole idea is to make it as clear & concise as possible. As a writer, the only legitimate way to extend this is to add information.\n\nI just did a search & on the first page I opened & found the answer to your problems - with an "s".. Your info or the web page info is incorrect, one or the other  There was enough other info to expand the reason for the tie.\n\nAfter a quick search, I found additional info & an error you may wish to correct.       This is a much better version than the 3 sentences I wrote earlier, correct? That is what I mean by clear & concise.\n \nYou've done all right so far. just a little more..

1. Ask yourself a questions to which this is the answer.\nThe question would be: In which country do people drive on the left? \nThus when you fill the blank in sentence, use "in which". Similarly "where' is also justified, because this sentence answers the question: Where do they drive on the left?.\n\n\n2. Here "is' or "are", is used with "the students", which is plural. Hence "are" is the correct word.

work in progress sounds better, working in progress doesn't sound right.So Work in progress in my prospective sounds grammatically correct.

"As I ate" ought to be "As I was eating" (it's the imperfect tense).\n\n"Heaping" perhaps should be "heaped".\n\n"Sighed in relief" is more commonly written as "sighed with relief".

The only way ı can find any logic in this sentence is if the comma before 'for example' is changed to a semi-colon. Then it's two different sentences and, even if I don't like it, I can parse it.\n\nSo, if that's the case, then it's 'situation', not 'patterns'. Patterns are an aspect of a leaf's form and physiology. You can reword this sentence like this: Leaves develop in different situations; according to these situations, the form and physiology vary.\n\nThis is logical when you look at the example, because 'different degrees of light' are different situations (as someone else said, 'environment' would be more suitable), and the example says that 'different degrees of light' affect how the leaf adapts (preumably altering its shape).\n\nHope this helps. Swat your teacher upside the head for giving you such an ill-formed question!

It does sound confusing. The two paragraphs contradict each other.

1. Use commas to separate independent clauses when they are joined by any of these seven coordinating conjunctions: and, but, for, or, nor, so, yet.\n2. Use commas after introductory a) clauses, b) phrases, or c) words that come before the main clause.\n3. Use a pair of commas in the middle of a sentence to set off clauses, phrases, and words that are not essential to the meaning of the sentence. Use one comma before to indicate the beginning of the pause and one at the end to indicate the end of the pause.\n4. Do not use commas to set off essential elements of the sentence, such as clauses beginning with that (relative clauses). That clauses after nouns are always essential. That clauses following a verb expressing mental action are always essential.\n5. Use commas to separate three or more words, phrases, or clauses written in a series.\n6. Use commas to separate two or more coordinate adjectives that describe the same noun. Be sure never to add an extra comma between the final adjective and the noun itself or to use commas with non-coordinate adjectives.\n7. Use a comma near the end of a sentence to separate contrasted coordinate elements or to indicate a distinct pause or shift.\n8. Use commas to set off phrases at the end of the sentence that refer back to the beginning or middle of the sentence. Such phrases are free modifiers that can be placed anywhere in the sentence without causing confusion. (If the placement of the modifier causes confusion, then it is not "free" and must remain "bound" to the word it modifies.)\n9. Use commas to set off all geographical names, items in dates (except the month and day), addresses (except the street number and name), and titles in names.\n10. Use a comma to shift between the main discourse and a quotation.\n11. Use commas wherever necessary to prevent possible confusion or misreading.\n12. Don't use a comma to separate the subject from the verb.\n13. Don't put a comma between the two verbs or verb phrases in a compound predicate.\n14. Don't put a comma between the two nouns, noun phrases, or noun clauses in a compound subject or compound object.\n15. Don't put a comma after the main clause when a dependent (subordinate) clause follows it (except for cases of extreme contrast).\n\nPlease see link for examples

Several different directions on this. \n\nI've believed that 'unorganized' meant never having organization, while 'disorganized' was more appropriate for organization that was lost.\n\nI went through searches to confirm (or deny) what I thought, and here's the one that reinforced the view I have:\n\nFrom Webster's Online (1)\n"Main Entry: un·or·ga·nized\n"Pronunciation: -'or-g&-"nIzd\n"Function: adjective\n"1 : not organized: as a : not brought into a coherent or well-ordered whole b : not belonging to a labor union\n"2 : not having the characteristics of a living organism"\n\n"Main Entry: dis·or·ga·nize\n"Pronunciation: (")di-'sor-g&-"nIz\n"Function: transitive verb\n"Etymology: French désorganiser, from dés- dis- + organiser to organize\n": to destroy or interrupt the orderly structure or function of"\n...[end Webster's]\n\nAnother dictionary site gave me a different overlapping use, more akin to another answer submitted here. (2)\n\nThe Oxford Ask The Expert(3) gave me this:\n"Frequently Asked Questions\n"(q) Should one say unorganized or disorganized?\n"(a) The answer is 'it depends'. Here are the relevant definitions from the New Oxford Dictionary of English (1998):\n\n"(definition - disorganized) not properly planned and controlled; (of a person) unable to plan one's activities efficiently."\n\n"(definition - unorganized) not organized."\n\n"Disorganized is strong and disapproving; unorganized is mild and may be neutral. Compare:\n"(example 1) Her desk and papers seemed unorganized (but she could find anything she needed in a moment).\n"(example 2) Her desk and papers were disorganized (and she could never lay her hands on what she needed)."\n...[end Ask The Expert]\n\nYour question piqued my curiosity. I had to look, just because I thought I knew it.

It is not a sentence...\n\nBeneath the noted universal concerns there lies a distinctive world view.\n\n Or better yet use a semi colon after the word preceeding but ..then replacing it with however and a comma...like this \n\n" ; however, beneath these universal concerns there lies a distinctive worldview."
