Subject: An English question Author: Summer [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 00:02:55 05/02/03 Fri Someone here keeps on saying "Would you mind..." is wrong English because "Do you mind..." is wrong English. But they are not the same. How come someone is so poor in logic. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: An English question Author: Summer [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 02:05:11 05/02/03 Fri I don't mean to cause another quarrel. If you have read the previous messages, you may see that someone has said that my use of "Would you mind..." is wrong English. He said "Would you mind...." is wrong because "Do you mind" is wrong. I then said "Would you mind..." is different from "Do you mind...", and "Do you mind..." is wrong doesn't mean "Would you mind..." is wrong, but he still said "Would you mind" and "Do you mind" have the same structure and so "Would you mind" is wrong English. I want to point out his argument is not logical. "Do you mind.." is wrong DOESN'T mean "Would you mind..." is wrong.
