Hi CJ,

Is it not correct to say "I'll do" like "I'll do (attend the meeting)"?
Is it also correct to reply with "I'll do attend the meeting" in the first place?

Thanks.

No. Sorry! Combinations of will ('ll) and do and a verb are ungrammatical. I will (I'll) do attend is wrong, as are any others like it, for example, *I will do see, *she wil

Hi,



A small comment that, where I live, the most common response would be simply 'OK'.
