[QUOTE="Alice G, post: 36945, member: 1160"] This is one of the best threads I think [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] - very glad to see its revival!! To add - Remember to properly pluralise two weeks' experience Check the rules when showing possession of an 's' ending word - business's is an example. Make sure you use clients' when speaking about clients as a collective group and you want to show possession, e.g. 'Clients' concerns can range from'. If you said 'Client's concerns range from' you would be speaking about a singular client and need an 'A' at the start of the sentence. Another pluralisation to be aware of is 'it's' and 'its' Be mindful of overly long sentences Check you are using; correctly! if you are not confident with them (and it is more than fine not to be) then probably best to avoid to be safe. Check you are using the correct words - common errors: allude/elude affect/effect advice/advise - very important to get this one correct! inquire/enquire complement/compliment [/QUOTE]
