Yaechika is a goldmine of English mistakes!
- absolute goldmine 《an ~》〈話〉〔店・事業などが〕ドル箱 (definition from Eijiro on the Web)
This time I found this sign:
× Information of the BusinessMany times you can use a noun as an adjective, like in this case.
○ Business Information
× Partly, there is a shop where business hours are different.Don't use "partly" when you are talking about a countable quantity of something, like "shops" in the sentence above. "Partly" is usually used before a verb, like this:
○ There are some shops with different business hours.
I've partly corrected this sign, but there are still some mistakes remaining.You can also use it to modify an adjective:
I have a cap which is partly damaged, but I haven't thrown it out yet.It has been too long since I last posted to the blog. That is partly because I've had a busy class schedule. It's partly because there were a lot of other things to do. You might be partly satisfied with these excuses, but I bet you aren't completely satisfied. Don't worry! I haven't forgotten about you loyal blog readers! I'm still thinking of your English education, and I'll be back soon with another blog post.
