Didn't realize you work on stem cells too....Planning to work on human stem cells for my next project...perhaps you might have some tips for me Smile

TooFree SG

Lucky this thread not lock yet.

Please refer to this. --1
Please refers to this. --2

I am presuming that the first sentence is the correct one. Since there is no noun in each sentence(s) to indicate whether there should be a 's' or not?

Q1. Why?
Q2. Each sentence or each sentences (since they are two here)?

Confused

starblue SG

like i said, i do not study human stem cells, i doubt i will be very useful. Embarassed sorry about that... all i know is, human stem cells are hard to maintain in the non-differentiating phase. so u might wanna work on other mammial cell lines instead.

starblue SG

"please refer to this" is correct.

"each sentence" without the 's' is correct. if you wanna use the plural form, you have to say, "each of the two sentences".

cheers.

TooFree SG

Thanks.
Is there a reason for not putting a 's'? Because to my understanding, no noun is mentioned in the sentence.

rainee SG

after please the verb will usually be in the basic form, or root form. dun need to put any addition to it Wink

TooFree SG

Can she refers to this instead?
Can I refer to this?

Are both sentences shown above grammatically correct?

rainee SG

After can, the same rule apply. Only basic form of verb.

Same goes for after should, could, shall, will, would.

rainee SG

Let me bring you to my previous reply.

Because to my understanding, no noun is mentioned in the sentence.

The correct sentence should read.

Because to my understanding, no noun was mentioned in the sentence.

Q1. Should a 's' be place behind noun? If not why?
Q2. Since there is really no noun mentioned, should I use 'was' or 'is'?

the choice of using was or is is not related to having no noun. was is past tense while is =present tense.
