I really wonder which sentence below is correct with using "more".      We have 2 hours more.   Or     We have 2 more hours.   What I was thinking about "more" is that the second sentence sounds correct. but I am still not sure..

Is     The more, the merrier!   a sentence? It doesn't seem to have a main verb, so I'm inclined to say no, but it certainly functions as a sentence in everyday speech.  I can think of three ways of analysing it:   It's a sentence with no main verb. Is this even possible? It's a sentence with an implicit verb: something like The more we have, the better! It's not a sentence. But then, what is it?

I heard that we should use "I want to rest" instead of "I want to take a rest."    I also heard that "I want to take a rest" is not a sentence a native speaker would use.  Is that correct? Should we prefer "I want to rest" to " I want to take a rest"?   Could you please confirm if this is true, and explain “why”.

a) The more I study, the less I learn. b) More I study, less I learn.  Could we rewrite the sentence shown under the letter a) in the form shown under the letter b) without breaking any grammatical rule? If not, why not?

Two days had passed since she had last eaten or slept.   Or should it be:     Two days have passed since she last ate or slept.   Or something else? And why? The combinatorial explosion of past simple, past perfect and present perfect is killing me.

I was just wondering, what is the most normal way of interpretating in the last two hours.  If somebody asked you: What have you been doing in the last two hours?  What events from what time period would you mostly cover in your answer if it was already 19:40?     A. I would mention all important things since 17:00 until 19:40(now)   or       B. I would mention all important things since 18:00 until 19:40   (because 40 minutes can be understood as almost hour, but I am not sure if people would count it if it is not full 60 minute hour yet)     C. I would mention all important things since 17:00 until 19:00   Personally, I would go with choice A. But I am not sure if this is the most common way people use it. It might seem that it is almost 3 hours (2h 40m) but so far it is still just 2 hours + some minutes because i would say in the last 3 hours ONLY if 3x60m was completed and would not care if it was more than 3 hours but it still would have to be less than 4 hours.  Does somebody understand me? Which is the most common way of understanding?

In 1999, I was living in Cuba.      In 1999, I lived in Cuba.   Do both sentences seem grammatically correct?   My teacher had told that the first sentence, which is with past continuous, is incorrect. I don't know whether or not the first sentence is correct. It indeed seems natural, doesn't it?

English is not my native language, so I'm wondering, should I say:     I'd better go away now.   or:     I better go away now.   or even (I think I've heard this one):     I better go now.   Thanks in advance!

Isn't the following sentence grammatically correct?     The group of fifty people are going to arrive Thursday.   What's wrong with it? Someone said it should be      The group of fifty people is going to arrive Thursday.   Why? People is plural so why is people is better than people are?
