We have the police's Special Task Force for Anti-Vice, Gaming and Gangsterism (Stagg)," he added.
Mr Zahid said police are and will continue to carry out operations against secret societies.
However, he declined to name the two groups or specify the reason behind the clash.
Is the part in bold OK?
Thanks.
@tanguatlay,
I probably wouldn't bold any of it. But if I did, I would just bold "and will continue." In fact, you might even think about italicizing the bold print as well. Then people will know that you mean business.
@Glennn,
Now Glennn, you know she just highlighted that part to direct our attention.
By the way, I think it is good usage.
@roger,
You're right. I probably would have missed that part
without the emphasis; my attention not being what it used to be.
A grammar Nazi would tell you that it should read "are carrying out and will continue to carry out"--but we don't like Nazis, and your usage is acceptable and common.
@tanguatlay,
Actually, I would change it thusly:
Mr. Zahid said police are, and will continue, carrying out operations against secret societies.
@tanguatlay,
Forgive my earlier posts. I mistakenly thought that you were asking if the part in bold needed to be in bold.
Stumble It!
