three more questions if I may
1. Whenever I see the adjective "forewarned" or "designated," I am thinking of putting the article "the." In the sentences below, would you say that it might be better or right to put the article "the" in the places indicated or would you say they are not necessary or incorrect to put ones there?
Turn from sin in order to escape from ____forewarned judgment.
They should be in ____ designated area.
2. Why would it be right to have the article "a" there? I found the sentence from a post here.
Resignatin is the expected choice; resigning is a sloppy second.
3. Why is it right to have the verb "go" and not "goes"? Or is it right?
Here it go.
