I am writing an english paper? Help Needed!? |
OK, I have this teacher "She Is A *****!" Anyway, I am writing a paper and I was wondering if It is ok to start off a paragraph with "About". It is not the beggining paragraph! If "ABOUT" is a bad word to start of a sentence please list some alternitives. Thanks Here is my sentence "About half way through the race I came around a corner to fast and flew off of my bike." There it is the begginging sentence to a paragraph, is it ok to start of with "About"? Just omit the about and and just start it with Half. You could use words like "approximately" or "nearly" to start the sentence or you could switch the order around to "I came around a corner too quickly and flew off of my bike about halfway through the race." its sounds ok to me....yup yup! I say take of the about and start with half actualy u shouldent start the parigraph like that at all we need more of the story to be able to help I think it's fine, but I'm not a grammar expert. One comment, change the "to" to "too". well , i have altered your sentence slightly , so that "about" isnt the starter word. " There I was, half way through the race when I came around a corner too fast and flew off of my bike " . hope that helps and good luck Depends....what grade are you in? Sounds good to me and I write all the time...however no one has a red pen checking my grammar either. Sure you can use ABOUT. Good luck. |
