Thank you!
What about 'oak' - ['ouk] or ['ok] ?
|
How to pronunciate the 'Oakleigh' correctly?
['ouklei] or ['oukli]
or, maybe,
['oklei] or ['okli] ?

Thank you

Should one use an article "the" with seas?
Black sea or the Black sea? Aral sea or the Aral sea?
As far as I know one should use an article "the" with oceans and rivers, but should not do this with lakes.

Thank you

Is the sentence correct?
To the blessed memory of my grandmother and my grandfather is devoted
Or should it be
Devoted to the blessed memory of my grandmother and my grandfather ?
|
What preposition should be used with the verb "refuse"?
- I won't take it, - he refused of/from it.
|
But one can 'deny' the fact of something.
|
Is "deny" needed an object or not?
'We have no ...', they denied.
