CeliVega Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Do we have to use a root word after "always"? Or it depends on what pronouns are we using? Quote
ShannonRiveras Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 It would be correctly written as "He always sits in the corner". The word "sit" would be used as in "Come sit by me" or "I told my dog to sit". Sits is used in the present tense; as in "She sits next to the fountain" or "He sits at his computer". Quote
CeliVega Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks for the correction! I learn something new here everytime I come here! Quote
Disinterested Cow Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 Sat would be the past tense. "He sat in the corner"Also keep in mind at/in/on change depending on the location, some crossover is acceptable but often using the wrong will sound unnatural. Examples:He sat in the corner of the room.He sat at the corner of the table.He sat on the corner of the street. Quote
