Vocabulary
except (for) the beans
Hello,
I know this has been discussed before, but I am posting this thread because some people say that "He ate everything except the beans" is incorrect. Is that true? I think that both "except/except for" can be used in:
- He ate everything except/except for the beans.
- Everyone came to the party except/except for Dan.
- I like going to most sports events, except/except for cricket matches.
Both work for me, but I might be wrong.
