   Hi, Alexander!  Recently you wrote in a message to All:   
      
   AK>  Maybe our honorable teachers can give a homework   
   AK>  for us?   
      
      
              Ahh.  There's an invitation I can't refuse... [chuckle].   
      
              Homework, BTW, is not countable but homework assignments are.   
      
      
      
   AK>  Do you have school tests on Grammar rules etc?   
      
      
              Tests, no.  A grade 9/10 grammar textbook which includes questions,   
   yes.  I may be able to get some ideas from it.  Meanwhile:   
      
      
                1)  "Etc." is an abbreviation which calls for a period, but   
                    you're also asking a question here.  AFAIC it's okay to   
                    use a period followed by a question mark in such cases.   
      
      
                2)  Can you pluralize these words?   
      
                        tooth   
      
                        lens   
      
                        cactus   
      
                        goose   
      
                        moose   
      
                        mouse   
      
                        brother-in-law   
      
                        wife   
      
                        woman   
      
                        index   
      
                        memorandum   
      
                        millennium   
      
      
                3)  What corrections or improvements would you suggest here?   
      
                        Me and Ruth went shopping yesterday.   
      
                        I bought this car off of my friend Pete.   
      
                        Hopefully it won't rain tomorrow.   
      
                        I only have $20 in my pocket.   
      
                        The reason I didn't hand in my assignment is   
                         because I forgot it at home.   
      
                        For more information or to buy now, call xxx.   
      
      
      
   AK>  Perhaps, it would be fun to make them out.   
      
      
              I hope you enjoy the above....  :-))
