Simon: Many usage books would recommend that you drop the "as to." Simply write: There is no easy answer how to minimize the occurrences of bullying.

Hi,

I would advise you not to get into the habit of starting sentences with 'and'.

An occasional one is OK.

Thank you very much!

And thank you all for your answers!

I have got a few more questions, which I hope you can answer.

What is the difference between partly and partially (Like: The schools are - at least partly/partially - responsible for the.....)

Is it: "He is prejudicial" or "He is prejudicious"?

Is this sentence correct: "The text describes bullying as wrong behaviour and makes a clear point out of saying that people being bullied are affected a great deal by it" ?

I sure hope you can help me!
