Grammar help please?
Hi there,
Could you advise if I am correct in these two sentences, please?
I mean (that) I am doing the good job. (We tend to ignore “that”, however without “that” it is still correct)
I mean (that) I do the good job. (We tend to ignore “that”, however without “that” it is still correct)
Thanks in advance.
