<p>What was the answer to the sentence that was like “when in danger the -insert fish name- cluster together confusing the -predator name- blah blah and thereby protect from danger or something”</p>
<p>i put NE for the xylophone one</p>
<p>awesome guys (or girls), it’s confirmed then.</p>
<p>:)</p>
<p>Is “differ with” correct then? Shouldn’t it be “differ from?”</p>
<p>so, did the experimental section have a whole bunch of C’s as answers in the beginning…just curious if i even did them right</p>
<p>Is there a math thread???</p>

<p>It should be different from.</p>
<p>[The</a> UVic Writer’s Guide: Differ from / Differ with](<a href=“http://web.uvic.ca/wguide/Pages/UsDiffer.html]The”>http://web.uvic.ca/wguide/Pages/UsDiffer.html)</p>
<p>Okay, here’s about 12 or 13 of the error detections (numbers 12 - 29):</p>
<p>bald eagle question: subject-verb agreement (verb was plural, needed to be singular)</p>
<p>fish/predator question: pronoun agreement (referred to a singular predator as “them”)</p>
<p>one of the last 3 or 4 was a tricky noun agreement error (said the speech included “an important topic, such as healthcare and blah…”; sentence needed to read "important topics”: there were 2 of them)</p>
<p>honey/citrus/distinctive question that everyone is arguing about…it was indeed a subject-verb agreement error (said “honey…have”; should have been “honey… has”; the intervening phrase “made up of lemon blossoms” or whatever it was is distraction; nouns inside a prep phrase can never be subjects!)</p>
<p>Had had question: answer was NOT “had had”; answer was an idiom error (“of Mexican descent” not “from Mexican descent” or whatever it was)</p>
<p>there were 2 tense/past participle errors: a “wore” that needed to be changed to a “worn” and a “took” that needed to be changed to a "taken</p>
<p>there was a question that mentioned a governor and “laws”; this one was also pronoun agreement (referred to laws with a singular pronoun but needed a plural…or it may have been the other way around)</p>
<p>I cannot remember exactly if it was “differ with” or “different with”; either way, the formal idiom would require “from”: ETS has tested this in the past the same way (requiring “from”)</p>
<p>red cross/crystal question was no error (I believe there may have been 1 other no error)</p>
<p>there was an adjective/adverb error (“felt more freely” should have been “felt more free”; linking/state of being verbs such as “to feel” require the use of an adjective, not an adverb)</p>
<p>as for the banana question, Boston, you’ve made a valiant effort, but you are absolutely 100% wrong…it is “most” (as several folks have already said, there were more than 2 fruits being compared; the superlative, not the comparative, is required)</p>
<p>i personally put differ WITH as the wrong answer since i thought it was supposed to be differ from? </p>
<p>Usage: – To Differ with, Differ from. Both differ from and differ with are used in reference to opinions; as, ``I differ from you or with you in that opinion.‘’‘’ In all other cases, expressing simple unlikeness, differ from is used; as, these two persons or things differ entirely from each other.</p>
<p>Shahe: can’t remember the exact sentence for xylophone but it does not sound right to me that in a sentence “something is more…than” the “than” can be wrong.
anyway, I give up because I cannot remember the beginning of the sentence</p>
<p>the question in paragraph improvement that asked about replacing certain word with another. among choices was that he was talented and he was good as etc. whats the answer</p>
<p>^ talented.</p>
<p>are you sure?</p>
<p>what was the differ with question? I dnt remember it.</p>
<p>yes talented because there was a problem with the tense on the sentence with good</p>
<p>Anyone get “misspoke” as incorrect - should have been misspoken, I think?</p>
<p>what was the differ with question? I dnt remember it. </p>
<p>also the xylyphone question could somebody confirm it.</p>
<p>@regina I don’t remember that in any question.</p>
<p>the question in section 10 about had his car washed ,what was the ans</p>
