Grammar and Mechanics: Capitalization (This is a quick guide to some of the basic capitalization rules) Comparison (A big stumbling block for writers, writing grammatically correct comparisons can pose problems.)

Fragments and fused sentences : Fragments are incomplete sentences, and fused sentences are actually two sentences crammed together. To fix these problems, use this step-by-step process: Circle all the verbs, which are words that can be made past tense. (Today, I talk . Yesterday, I talked . Today, I am . Yesterday, I was Cross out verbs that have "to" in front of them. Cross out verbs that end in "-ing" and do not have a form of the verb "to be" (am, is, are, was, were, been) in front of them.

Cross out verbs that end in "-en" and do not have "has" or "have" in front of them. Any verbs that remain are probably main verbs. Underline each remaining verb's subject (the noun that is performing the action). Draw brackets around each complete clause (a group of words with a subject and a main verb). Cross out any clause that begins with a relative pronoun (who, whom, which, that) unless the clause is a question.

Generally, tutors will help you with whatever you need to be successful on your assignment, but there are some things we will not do because they will not help you become a better writer. Here are some things we can help you with: We will help you to understand the assignment your instructor gave you. We will help you learn ways to generate ideas for writing papers, and we will help you learn strategies for developing and organizing your essays. However, we will not write your paper for you. Academic dishonesty is grounds for expulsion from the University. We will work with you on developing and improving your own writing style, and we will also offer general suggestions for improving an essay. However, we cannot guarantee a "quick fix" of your writing problems.

    Extractions: Original Publication Date in Love Notes : November 2001 I’ve got a gripe, and you may share it. Conversely, my airing of it in such a combative way might make you mad. In fact, you may be one of the perpetrators of my current peeve: people who think they know grammar and mechanics but do not. It wouldn’t matter if these people had no contact with or influence over me, but sometimes — like in the case of contest judges — they do. I’m tired of getting my much-awaited contest results back with low scores in grammar and mechanics that I don’t deserve! “Be sure you get a critique partner to look over your manuscript before you send it out.” (Always smart, but when the judge points out no typos or other errors.) “Watch out for run-on sentences — you know, the really long ones?” “Editors frown when you don’t use enough commas.” “You are very wordy. Editors don’t like words.” Well, thinks my reader, you’re certainly full of your little self, aren’t you? Maybe these fine, hard-working contest judges are simply giving you some advice you need to be taking? What makes you so right and them so wrong? Simply this: grammar and mechanics, for the most part, are not a matter of opinion. Diss my dialogue. Tell me my opening is boring. Point out that I’m telling and not showing. I’ll thank you for the observation and work on it. But don’t, and I mean don’t, tell me a word is misspelled that is not. Don’t tell me I have run-on sentences when I do not. Don’t sprinkle commas through my story that aren’t supposed to be there. And don’t give me a low score in grammar and mechanics without sufficient explanation! You’ll just convince me that you don’t know what you’re talking about, and all your hard work on my submission will have been wasted.

General relativity deals with the universe on the large scale—stars and galaxies—while quantum mechanics attempts to explain the universe on the small scale—molecules, atoms, and subatomic particles. Right now, general relativity (laws of the large) and quantum mechanics (laws of the small) contrast with each other in bewildering, complex ways. For most of the twentieth century, physicists chose to study either general relativity or quantum physics and pretended that the other simply didn’t exist. Then string theory came around.
