Hello!

Great question! Since humor is an uncountable noun, there is no article used with humor when referring to it generally. For example, I don't like his humor and never laugh when he makes jokes.

However, if you want to be more specific, you can use the article the. Example: The humor he displayed at the conference was inappropriate.

Hope this helps!

A tag question (UK English, question tag) is a construction in which an interrogative fragment is added to a declarative or an imperative clause. The resulting speech act comprises an assertion paired with a request for confirmation. For instance, the English tag question "You're John, aren't you?" consists of the declarative clause "You're John" and the interrogative tag "aren't you?"

Some possible questions created from this sentence:

Where was the door? Was the door open? What kind of door was it?

Hello

The reason is that "tell" is an irregular verb.

So tell becomes told in the past tense .

With irregular verbs we do not add the suffix "ed" to make the verb a past tense verb.

The reason why there is a difference has to do with the origins of the word.

Hi Yashwant.

The word put is an irregular verb. The past form of "put" is "put".

It's an irregular verb which means that it doesn't follow the regular +ED rule to form the past tense

. Hope this helps! :) The past tense of the verb “to put” is put.

Hello Max, you`re welcome to Preply.

Bout your question, here are a few tips I`ll like dishing out to you;

Talking to a stranger can be nerve-wracking, but it can also be fun to get to know somebody you don’t know. If you’re ready to make some new friends or just talk to people around you, start by choosing a good conversation opener and building your conversation from there. When possible, converse in various situations so that you can meet lots of people. Practice your skills and you’ll be talking to new people in no time!

Adverbial clauses are a category of subordinating clauses. They are linked to a main clause and tell us something about the information in that main clause. Here the adverbial clause is giving us more information related to the main clause. They designed the new product (main clause) with regard to the old design’s flaws (adverbial clause)
