Grammar
look over the contract?
A: Have you had a chance to look over the contract?
B: Yes, I have.
A: And are there any changes you would like to make?
B: No. Everything seems to be in order.
A: Then I'll ask you to sign on this line.
For a start, does "look over the contract" mean "glance over the contract" or "read it all over again?"
Second, does "Everything seems to be in order" mean "Everything seems to comply/conform to the rules?"
Last, is it right to say "sign on this line?" Would it be better to rewrite it as "sign above/over this line?" Thanks.
