Will + still

Hi,

I will still hold m passport.

is the above sentence correct? No, there is no such word as 'm'. Perhaps you mean 'my'.

Oher than that, your sentence is not incorrect. You need a context in which it makes sense to say this, of course.



why? It doesn't break any grammar 'rules'.

you are absolutely right. there is no such word as 'm'. that was typing mistake.sorry for that.

actually "will still" is confusing.

and "still" means till now.
if it doesn't break any rule,in which context it is used?

It may help you to think of "still" as "continue to". That way, the use of "will" and "still" together won't bother you so much.

I still have the money you gave me yesterday.
= I continue to have the money you gave me yesterday.

thanks clive.

hi califJim,
you wrote the thing I exactly need to know.(m not sure this sentence is correct)
"continue to" helped me it may be because of my Indian way of thinking.
thank you very much.
