00 Whenever you mention something after the phrase 'call me', the difference in putting an ariticle and not putting it can be explained like this? 02 br
02 br
00 Call me 01 u 00 the 'slippery snake' 02 u 00 because I can go from crevice to crevice (OK??) very smoothly figuratively. (Here, the article is there because it is a part of a grammatical sentence.) 02 br
02 br
00 Call me " 01 u 00 lion 02 u 00 " because that is what people call me. (Here, no article because it is not part of a grammatical sentence but just giving out the name being called.) 02 br
02 br
00 Call me 01 u 00 a/the "monkey 02 u 00 " because I can go place to place very fast. (Here, it is part of a grammatical sentence.) 02 br
02 br
00 Do you have any tips to know clearly when it is part of a grammatical sentenece or not? 0-
