Grammar
BY or (BY) / DO or (DO)
Could you help me correct these few sentences please?
- What day do we have to return it (by)? (Could you leave in BY?)
- He knows how it works better than you (do).
- He looks good compared to you (do). (does this sentence make sense?)
- They arrived after we left.
Thank you
