check the sentence

Mario you write good. Only coupla very minor,

Having attended courses in [Cutting-Edge ?] Physics at the University during academic years 2014-2017, I had attended workshops and lectures also in Advanced Quantum Mechanics, Optical Properties of Solids, etc, etc.

Welcome,

Oh incidentally, a2k Mgrs, Glitch #4,664: When I leave Ed Window to go check a spellin' , when I come back you've deleted my entxre response

...even b4 I had saved it...

Don't introduce a list with 'the following' and then provide a partial list.

Don't use 'etc' after a partial list if the remaining items are not obvious, as they are not in this case.

Good example:

Write on a piece of paper the odd numbers lower than 10 (1, 3, 5, etc)

Bad example:

I have visited France, Australia, Japan, etc.

By golly cen, you gotta be a journ 'spert; I know you tol' me but with Alzie's I don't 'mem'. Bet you could ed. my ed.'g

Hey it got saved. js' li'l while ago I got a msg from Mgmt sayin' I'd been disdbarred from a2k

Use 'etc' very sparingly. It can quickly become annoying and make the reader think you are lazy. I thought this today while re-reading some emails I had written at work.

Thank you Cen---but I am---so then can't I use it

Far as OP goes, of course you might be right, I never thot 'bout that. Appreciate all past, present help

PS: I almost think it was a dream, but I 'mem' a msg from Mgmt tellin' me I'd been disbarred, but still I seem to be able to save, even this'n....

Edited later to remark that when I found the msg, they had only disbarred me for a couple of hours !! When I mentioned somewhere back that a2k is probly the most lib Chat Room on the Web, this sure proves it !!

Still I'm awful confused. I 'mem' dozens of my posts in the last few weeks been del'd, dunno why, tried to find out but was unsuccessful. It's like ridin' upside down and in circles on a 'coaster while tryin' to 'mem' on my keyboard whee to find the 'Tab' light...

It's all like a dream

You should see Reddit. A2K is liberal enough to let you write '****' or '****', and be pretty extreme in many ways, but they do seem to take a dim view of incoherent nonsense. Quite rightly so.

Wha Cen, who, me

What's Reddit, Chat Room ? & d'you think they might accept my nonsense ?

thank you for your response. are you English teacher? is wrong to say I ATTENDED courses in Physics at University during the academic years 2014-2017?
Over the 3 ACADEMIC YEARS I ATTENDED workshops and lectures in the following courses:Advanced Quantum Mechanics, Optical Properties of Solids etc.
My concerns is not capital letters mainly. Thanks for your help

thank you. so everything in my sentences is correct?

You didn't read what I wrote, did you?

Not atall Mario

Naw, ol' ret'd Electronicsd & Journ Major

'Course not Mario but why'd'j'a ask

Thanks for For what li'l't's worth. By the way lissen to Cen, he's 'way smarter'n me

yes. you just mention only the word etc. that why i am asking if everything is correct. now i deleted the word etc.

Mario, I like the word (abbr) 'etc,' use it allatime. Wherever I wanna say, 'there'sd a lotta...,' ''My Letter's gettin' too long,' etc etc etc

'N you c'n skip all them '.' 's. In a lifetime save ya 4,619,226 keystrokes [by act. ct.]

There's ho'lot more, I'm [apparently dumdum] [email protected]

Tho Cen's probly right


Oh Cen if ur list'n', didja ever think about why they delete my OP's but not my resps, like this'n' ? My God but it's been such a mystery, the whol'thin'

Why did you use 'etc'? Because the list was not complete? Is it now complete?

Easier to delete an entire thread?

Easier to delete an entire thread?

Oh hell yes,\Cen; in the first place, it's all done w/ a swipe'v the highlight, big'n or small. Sometimes I think it's 'cause the OP stands out more
