and this post was not written grammatically correct, nor did i try to.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But the post is not difficult to read because you are at the point where you don't have to concentrate in order to use correct grammar. I think the general problem people have is when they have to take extra time to figure out what someone is saying due to poor spelling or grammar - most people don't get irritated or comment about ridiculously minuscule mistakes.

meaning...i conveyed my points effectively. my grammar has mistakes in the :technicalities" not with like...periods, comma use, etc. I suffer when it comes to the order of words.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

for example: "I have also" "I also have"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

which one is correct? I wouldn't know to be honest with you

It's "I also have...", or you could put it as "I have ... also ... ." As in "I also have a cat and a dog." or "I have a cat and also a dog".

 

 

 

If you type with bad grammar on interwebs then chances are your work will reflect that, and vice versa. Think of each post you make as a practice of grammar, spelling and conveting your point for possible work. That's the way I see it, anyway.

I don't know who taught you how to write but you should demand a refund.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Writing, "I have a cat and also a dog" is terrible. The sentence is wordy and poorly constructed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The difference between "I have also" and "I also have" has nothing to do with which one is correct, as you suggest. "I have also" generally refers to an action, as in, "I have also graded all of the exams." You would use "I also have" in terms of possession, such as the example you gave. However, it would be perfectly acceptable to write, "I also have graded the exams." The other usage is not reversible.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you have a choice, it depends on how you want to emphasize it. Do you want to emphasize what you have done, or do you want to emphasize that you have done more? If you are more interested in emphasizing what you have done, it would be wise to write, "I have also graded the exams." If you want to emphasize that you have done extra, it would be wiser to write, "I also have graded the exams." However, the latter of the two examples is the less commonly used method because of the peculiarity of the sentence's sound.
