About Rosemary Lenc
Expertise
I am a retired Middle School teacher. I am an expert in grammar (structure of the English
language) and writing. I have been a volunteer with AOL Ask A Teacher and have
submitted many articles and special collections (one on diagramming sentences and one
with worksheets and answers so students can check their own practice on grammar skills)
to their knowledge database. I still am with them but would like other work where I can
help students with their English study. I have time to help you with this, if you want me. I
can help with grade school, middle school and high school grammar & writing and can
also look up information on literature (reading) for students and help them with it.
Please let me know if I can be of help in these areas. Thank you.

Question
When do we use the past participle and the past tense?
What is the past participle and the past tense?
what is the present continous tense?
What is the present participle?
What is the future tense and future participle?
What is the difference between 'suffering from' and 'suffering with'?
Why can't we use the phrase 'scarcely nothing'?
Answer
Dear Shelly-Ann,
This sounds like a homework assignment and I don't just give answers to homework assignments. I will give you some help. If you go to my web site, http:/members.cox.net/teachro
you will find many of the answers to the first 5 questions. I will tell you that the present continous tense is also known as a progressive tense. That should help you. If you don't know what that is, put that in a search engine and the internet will help you.
The second last question can be answered by the internet also.
The last one is just plain common sense. If there is "nothing" then there can't be a degree of nothing. That is why you can't say, "scarcely nothing".
Thanks for using AllExperts.
Mrs. Lenc
