I have done much research on that subject. "Research" is an uncountable noun.

What is difference between "ANY OF THEM" and "ANY OF WHOM" ?

Hi Peace Lover, “Any of them” takes the place of “they/them”, whereas “Any of whom” takes the place of “who/whom”. They were hungry. → Any of them were hungry. The children, who were hungry, were crying. → The children, any of whom were hungry, were crying. We fed them. → We fed any of them. The children, to whom we had given food, began to smile. → The children, to any of whom we had given food, began to smile. I hope that helps!

Mam first cases 1 There is some innocent people killed in the clash 2 there is book lying on the table Here both "there" work like There =dummy subject And second cases 1 There is killed some innocent people in the clash. 2 there is lying a book on the table . Here both "there" work like There = adverb Am I correct. If i am right Third cases So when we use this sentence in subordinate clause Like this 1 ..…........ Where there is killed some innocent people in the clash . 2. ............when there is lying a book on the table Here my question is In both cases Is "There word " working like a Adverb or introductory. Please reply 🙂🙂

Hi Sameer, I think you have already asked me something like this before, right? In your first sentences: there operates as a dummy subject in the construction there is or there are. However it should be ... there are some innocent people. In your second sentences, they are not correct grammatically. It would be better to say: There were some innocent people killed in the clash. There is a book lying on the table. These are the same construct as above. Finally, in a subordinate clause, you are still using there is as a dummy subject. I hope that helps!

My friend told me. If there is no objects in active voice Then we use DUMMY "IT" as subject in passive voice . Like this Active sentences 1 ) He is writting. 2 ) He has told . 3) we hope. then I Change into passive using DUMMY "IT" It is being written by him. It has been told by him . It is hoped by us . This rule is correct or incorrect Please help to understand

The rule you mentioned is not entirely accurate. The use of a dummy "it" as a subject in passive voice is not a general rule for all active sentences without objects. Instead, it depends on the specific construction of the active sentence. Let's look at your examples: Active Sentence: He is writing. Passive: It is being written by him. This example follows the rule you mentioned. However, note that in standard English, we often use the active voice for actions like writing, so a passive construction might sound less natural. Active Sentence: He has told. Passive: It has been told by him. This example is correct and follows the rule you mentioned. Active Sentence: We hope. Passive: It is hoped by us. This example also follows the rule. However, it's important to note that not all active sentences without objects will follow this pattern. For example: Active Sentence: She swims. Passive: It is swum by her. (awkward) In cases where the verb doesn't naturally lend itself to a passive construction, using a dummy "it" might result in awkward or unnatural-sounding sentences. The decision to use a dummy "it" in passive voice depends on the specific verbs and context. It's not a universal rule for all active sentences without objects.

​​​@@oxfordenglishnow mam as you said. Dummy "it" doesn't use as subject in passive voice for all sentences. It is only use for some specific verb and context . Please tell which type of verbs and context use with dummy " it". If there is no object is given in active voice. Please take like those examples As I had given you in question. If create this situation. Please 🙏🙏 help

The correct answer is "I have done much research", because research is uncountable noun.

Ok but much don't use in affirmative sentence
@user-qe5vn7oj6b
@user-qe5vn7oj6b 9 ай бұрын
why is the sentence she studies too much affirmative while you said that much doesn't usually come in affirmative sentences
@oxfordenglishnow
@oxfordenglishnow 9 ай бұрын
If you say, "She studies too much." It is saying that that is a negative thing. "He drinks too much." Again, it means it is not good.

I am confused you said much use with negative and interrogative sentence then why you much with needed rest and much rest
@oxfordenglishnow

"Much" is commonly used in negative sentences and questions, especially with uncountable nouns. In affirmative sentences, "much" is less common and often sounds formal or unusual. Instead, we usually use "a lot of" or "plenty of." However, "much" can still be used in specific contexts, particularly with certain expressions or in formal writing. Examples: Needed Rest: "I needed much rest after the surgery." While technically correct, this sentence sounds formal. More commonly, people say: "I needed a lot of rest after the surgery." Much Rest: "He has much rest during his vacation." Again, while correct, it's more common to say: "He has plenty of rest during his vacation." I hope that helps!
