   Hi, Anton Shepelev!   
   I read your message from  24.01.2017 21:11   
   about Rio again.   
      
    AK>> Take for instance the invasion in Iraq by Bush   
      
    AS> Whereas we are in english_tutor, I should like to make a   
    AS> small correction: "invasion *of* Iraq,"   
      
   Yes, indeed. English_tutor now looks like it should. ;)   
      
    AS> because "invade" is a transitive verb (it already contains "in") and

   Bye, Anton!
