I've just put a new web page live, and now one of my sentences is bugging me. The sentence in question is:     It was developed internally and made available for the world.   The part that I'm not sure about is made available for the world. Is for correct here, or would the appropriate word be to?   It sounds right to me, but I'm not sure if I'm breaking a rule.

First of all, English is not my first language. I have a question, maybe a basic one, about this phrase:     The situation highlights the mismatch between some areas of training and available jobs to/for them.   Should it be "available jobs to them" or "available jobs for them"?  Sorry if the question is really basic.

I had a Grammar homework and I was asked to fill in the gap of the following sentence :   My father ... subscribe to the Newsweek.   I had been given four options and only one of them fits in with the sentence, they are as follows :   A- Said to me  B- Suggested that I   C- Suggests me to   D- Encouraged me  I had chosen the answer "C" but I discovered later that the teacher considered it as incorrect, and that "B" is the appropriate answer, which made me so confused. Could you please explain to me why ?

My friend and I got into an argument about English grammar, so I was hoping maybe you could help us out. Okay so we want to know if the following part of the sentence is correct, "People who are satisfied and feel self-fulfilled like I" rather than "People who are satisfied and feel self-fulfilled like me". I have already provided many sources to my friend showing that the first way is a formal and a grammatically correct way, however he wants an answer with this specific part of the sentence.   Please help us out  Thank you

I have asked the  in ELL Stackexchange forum. There all the answers and comments I received was really helpful, but still I was looking for something more. So I have decided to ask this same question here also.   I have seen some sentences like this -         The film was announced to be released on this coming Friday.   The film was announced to release on this coming Friday.      Both the sentences are used, and I know they are interchangeable and does bear the same meaning. But I have some doubt about the second sentence - why is it "to release", when the film cant release itself.   Some other sentences of similar structure that arises my confusion -         The product sells well.   The book reads well.   The glass broke.      The sentences are understandable, but in each of the sentences the subjects can't perform any job, as they all are inanimate object. The verbs are active, but they acts like they are used as passive.  Now my question is how to decide which verb to use this way and which not?

I know the rule is to use past simple when you specify the time when the described action happened, but I strangely dislike this sentence and I'm not sure if the rule applies:   "It's the best movie I saw this year".  Shouldn't it be: "It's the best movie I've seen this year"?  Please, could you justify your answers? Thank you in advance!  Cheers

Source:      There have been seven weeks of protests outside the site from which   "hundreds" of pupils were kept away on Monday.   Why does the sentence say “have been” not  simply “were”?  I think that indicates that the protesters are still protesting untill the moment of writing. Am I correct here?

I'm writing a leaflet for children from primary schools who will visit our school.  Is it correct to write:     the "amerigo vespucci" school is waiting for you!!!!   Is the use of the definite article correct in this case? I am defining which school is waiting for them, I'm saying we and no others but us are willing to meet them?

I've seen many people who say:     This is a HTML page.   Yet I've also seen many people who say:     This is an HTML page.   Are both usages equally correct?  Or, which is the grammatically correct one?       Possible Duplicates:

Does this "as" change the meaning or correctness of this sentence?     This is considered as socially desired.   This is considered socially desired.   Are both of them grammatically correct? Why or why not?

Adjectives are placed before nouns. But sometimes I've seen (though I'm not sure if they are correct), things like:     The item placed there   I know that it may be a short way of saying "The item which is placed there".    Is the past participle "placed" considered as an adjective in that sentence? Can any past participle used in this way by ommiting the relative pronoun+subject of the relative clause? Is there any exception for the rule that adjectives must be placed before noun?

Which would be correct?        The fridge, the shelves, the walls, the floor, and John himself, were all covered in foam.   The fridge, shelves, walls, floor, and John himself, were all covered in foam.      The the can be applied to all the nouns, so is there a need to repeat it?

An online retail store is asking its customers to construct a sentence beginning with them in order to win a voucher. I just can't believe there's  any such sentence, at least I don't know of any!   I've had enough laughs with friends coming up with Americanisms that fit, so that's not what I'm looking for.  I'm just very curious, is such a sentence grammatically possible or is this store just being mischievous?

The place is important for/to me.   I changed the variable for/to the project.   I can do to/for you.   In/for/to this project, I created a new method.      Does it mean any difference?  This bothered me many times.  Wish someone can answer.

I wrote:     An open -source and -society loving person   and had this corrected by a native English speaker to      An open-source-and-society loving person   Which to me changes the meaning of the phrase. The first one is meant to be short-hand for prefixing both "source" and "society" with "open", while the second one does not seem to connect "society" with "open".  Is either of the forms more correct than the other? Should it be written differently all together?
