TROOPS means more than 1 person, just like CLASS and GROUP. So don't they mean 21,000 individual soldiers? Are they not saying this properly? Please...refrain from political ideas! I just want to know the context.

P.S. ( I am new to this site. Why do I have DELETE and EDIT after my answers? I don't see that with any one else.)

Thank you

I'm writing a poem about Abraham Lincoln and I'm stuck.. More specifically, I'm looking for a word similar to "differ" for the word village, and "hero" for the word Amendment. Thanks soo much! :)

Although this sounds silly, this is a serious question. I mean, couldn't you replace all of them with some other letter? Really, sebra works instead of zebra, and x-ray could always be some other lettered ray. What do you think?

I mean, about sixty percent of the time, you see people saying, "too" when they mean "to"; it can't be typos for all of them. Some people need to go back to school.

I am taking a copy-editing class and can't figure out what is wrong with these sentenes (I know I just asked about one before haha). The first one is:

"Luck has nothing to do with it," Marlow said.

"Then he said, 'Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes."

It doesn't take long to drive from Washington D.C. to Baltimore.

Hi,

I asked about the sentence below several minutes ago

I am sorry that I haven't / didn't / had not / wiritten to you for a long time as I have been very busy.

Some answers suggested that I can use either "have not" or "did not". Both are correct but I would like to know

Under what context should i use "have not" and under what context should I use "did not" ??

Thanks

From the book **ENGLISH GRAMMAR IN USE**

We use the past in the same way after wish.We use "wish"
to say that we regret sth,that sth is not as we would like it to be:
>>It rains a lot here.I wish it didn't rain so often.<<

We use "I wish...would" when we would like sth to happen or
change.Usually, the speaker doesn't expect this to happen.
>> I wish it would stop raining.<<

So both of the sentences are related to the present,IF I'm not mistaken. But the point that i can't understand here is that both
of the definition mentioned above,are of the same meaning.
Aren't they?
