Vincent TeoCan I say,

(a) I have a relieve class now.>> No, Relieve is a verb.


(b) Do you have relieve / relieve class? >> No, Relieve is a verb.

(c) I will have relieve / relieve class later. >> No, Relieve is a verb.

(d) I need to relieve Mr Wong for her class. of his teaching dut

So, How do I correct them?

What you have is like saying:

erjit wheori qwne- tyue0 shekjkte wheot.

How do I correct that? I don't know. I don't even know what it is trying to say.

Use different words to explain what you are trying to say. Then we can help.

I try to correct:

(a) I have to relieve (class) now.

(b) Do you relieve for / of John's class?

(c) I will have relieve later.

(d) I need to relieve Mr Wong for / of her class.

(e) I will relieve of / for John because he is absent today.

Vincent,

Everyone is trying to help you and you are questioning the answers repeatedly. Why? Your questions are so vauge and poorly formed that we have to guess what you meant. We gave you a lot of good pointers but you are not using them in your sentences but repeat the mistakes over and over again. This kind of "multiple choice learning" won't getyou anywhere.

For this grou

Do you mean "I have to leave class now"? "I will leave later"? "relieve" makes no sense there.

relieve is not used in the way you are using it.

Are you talking about one teacher substituting for another? In that case, your best bet is to use "substitute".

Mr. Wong cannot teach the class today, so I need to substitute for him.
