Hi Veronica,

In the sentence "Most people are a little racist," the word 'most' is not a superlative, it means 'the majority of people.'

hi Anthony,

you use in spite of or despite when you have a noun or an ing-verb, but when you don´t have either of those then you need to use "the fact that".

Hope it helps!

Hi guys, HOw are you all?
On the stuff we read yesterday about prejudice, Ruth (23, Atlanta) says ¨I have a good mind to tell his wife¨ on the last paragraph of her speech. Can anyone explain to me what it means?

Hey Elizabeth,

I would say that the word ¨easygoing¨ is related to one person´s character and also is a quality.

HI Anthony,

You use SPITE OF OR DESPITE when you see this:

- Noun
- Verb ing
- The fact that + clause

THE FACT THAT + CLAUSE you use when is necesary.

hello
Can anybody explain me when I have to use "somewhat" in a comparative sentence...

Francisco said...

Hi Priscila,
Mind you is a contrast expresion as same as although.. I think that an example could help you more...

1) He is not a good student. Mind you, I am not better than him

2) Her shoes looks very confortable; expensive mind you!

Hope it helps!

jessica rodriguez said...

Hi Students

One thing that I found difficult in chapter 10 was the difference between that and than. Please help me.

use "somewhat" in a comparative sentence...

hey Francisco, somewhat is used when you want to refer to a very small difference between two things you are comparing.

for example:
Guayaquil is somewhat better city than Quito
