I am writing a technical letter for my (and my lab partner’s) senior design project (we are engineering majors) and I would like some help on properly phrasing part of the letter.  The project belongs to my partner and I. I was always taught in school that in cases of dual possession, I should always proceed the other possessors.   Suppose for a moment that the project was just mine. Then in that case, the sentence below would be grammatically correct.     Attached to this email is my project selection.   Now if the project only belonged to my partner, this sentence would also be grammatically correct.     Attached to this email is my partner's project selection.   However, since this project belongs to both of us, I need to phrase the sentence accordingly.  The sentence below doesn’t appear to be correct in my opinion.     Attached to this email is my partner and I's project selection.   This one sounds better, but doesn’t follow the rules I was taught.     Attached to this email is mine and my partner’s project selection.   So which phrase (if any) should I use to be grammatically correct? Thanks

I just stumbled upon a :     My wife and I's seafood collaboration dinner. How does it look?   Sure enough, the top comment immediately points out that it should be "my wife's and my". However, a cross-post to the Grammar subreddit produced :     It's fine as it is written. "my wife and I" is a noun phrase, functioning as a subjective pronoun in the singular and made possessive with the apostrophe. It is exactly the same as "our".      It seems weird because you would never use "I's" on its own but it is not on its own here - it is part of a noun phrase.   That's a rather intriguing argument. Does it hold any water?

Is this sentence grammatically correct?  "The application site comprises an existing care home which has 59 bedrooms and 85 registered bed spaces"  I was under the impression that 'comprise' would indicate plural, eg  "the playground comprises a slide, a climbing frame, and a swing"  and that using it singularly is incorrect, eg  "the playground comprises a slide"

I'm from Central Pennsylvania, and apparently, we have a strange language construct in this area. I was recently talking about how "my car needs washed" to a friend from NJ, and she told me that my sentence was grammatically incorrect.   I realize she's right, and I realize my options are "my car needs to be washed" or "my car needs washing". But I'm not clear on the precise rule being invoked.

When “and” connects two subjects, can we remove the article pertaining to the second subject (as in the following example)?  Original sentence:      The implementation of the algorithms on the CPU and the GPU is presented.   Sentence after removal:      The implementation of the algorithms on the CPU and  GPU is presented.   Note that the meaning intended to express in both sentences is that the algorithms are implemented both on the GPU and on the CPU.  Thanks!

I'm confused about the following examples, and I'm pretty sure I've seen both of them in books and white papers.   What I have to do is find her. What I have to do is to find her. What I would like to do is to buy it. What I would like to do is buy it   Can anyone please tell me which one is correct?  Many thanks

Consider the phrase: "That shovel belongs to Tim."  which when you reverse the subject becomes: "Tim owns that shovel"  However there is another use of belong, which means membership of.  "Susan belongs to the North Hampton Soccer Club.".  How would I reverse that subject. "The North Hampton Soccer Club owns Susan"? That isn't correct, Susan isn't property.  "The North Hampton Soccer Club includes Susan"? That doesn't convay the same strength of belonging, but it is better.  Consider another example:  "Fred belongs to the Catholic Church"  "The Catholic Church owns Fred", "The Catholic Church includes Fred",  I am ideally looking for a single word verb.

I need a bit of help with this.      She is a photographer but that camera is her brother's-in-law     or:        She is a photographer but that camera is her brother-in-law's   I am aware that I could change the construction to make things easier, like:      She is a photographer but that camera belongs to her brother-in-law       However, I would really like to find out what's the correct way to write the sentence.

Here's a standard English sentence:     The folder which is missing from the principal's office contained the answers to today's exam.   (Separate question, discussed elsewhere I'm sure, whether it should really be "which" or "that".)  But simpler is usually better, so I would actually just write:     The folder missing from the principal's office ...   But my question is: I have seen legal statements which would write:     The folder, which folder is missing from the principal's office, contained ...   Assuming that the writer is actually correct in thinking that s/he's adding some value by repeating "folder" after the "which", what value is s/he adding?

Recently at work I was writing the following, and I have not been able to get a firm answer on which version is the most grammatically correct. The sentence is:     We would like to use one of the cables that _________ between rooms.   Is the correct conjugation run or runs?  I think 'run' is correct, because I think that the verb in the prepositional phrase is referring to 'cables' not 'one.' However, a number of colleagues have said that 'runs' is correct because one is singular.

Is there a non written rule to which person to use in the PhD thesis, 5 years of using "We" in the papers have brought me to the innate necessity to do it every time I describe something.  Recently, though, one of my lab-mates told me that I should use I, since it is your work, if the thesis were co-written, then it would be a different story.  Is there any standard in your universities, or do you have any preferred practice.

The study was carried out up to visit 11 under the name of X1,   whereas all later visits were carried out under a different name,   X2.   In the above sentence, does V11 belong to X1 or X2? I want the sentence to mean that V11 was included in X1, how should the sentence be then?

I believe the sentence in the title is grammatically correct.   Recently I've seen too many people writing it this way:     I'm not sure what is the right way.   Is it grammatically correct as well? Maybe in a different sense? Or simply misuse by non-native speakers?

I have come across the phrases like "to which","for which", "by which", "on which" and so on(using a preposition with a relative pronoun).   e.g. The chair on which the body was found..  Could someone please explain if there's a particular rule to be followed when building/using them?   Can I use any preposition before 'which'?  What if I say "The chair which the body was found on"? How would I decide which preposition to be put? Can I use other relative pronouns too?  Thanks in advance.

I am getting confused with usage of 's' with verb- consider following 2 sentences-        I am the one who wants to stay with you.   I am the one who want to stay with you.      According to me, first one is the correct usage, because, "the one who" is third person, and hence, the verb will get an 's'. Would like to know what is the rule to be followed in such cases.
