1. We should wash our hand before meals.
2. We should wash our hands before meals.
(Can we use 'hand' as in Sentence 1?)
3. You will do good soon.
4. You will do better soon.
(Is #3 grammatical? What about Sentence 4?)
No, sentence 1 is unusual. Sentence 2 is correct.
Sentence 3 is incorrect. Sentence 4 is fine.
You need to use "well" instead of "good" in sentence 3 since you need the adverb form there.
1. In sentence 1, the word "hand" is incorrect. The correct form should be "hands" because we have two hands. Therefore, sentence 2 is the correct sentence: "We should wash our hands before meals."
To figure this out, you can consider the subject of the sentence, which is "we." Since "we" refers to multiple people, it implies that there are multiple hands involved. Hence, using the plural form "hands" is necessary.
2. Sentence 3, "You will do good soon," is grammatically incorrect. The correct form should be: "You will do well soon." It is important to use the adverb "well" instead of the adjective "good" to modify the verb "do."
To determine this, you can consider the verb "do" in the sentence. When describing how someone performs an action, we use the adverb form. In this case, the correct adverb form is "well," as it describes how you will do something.
Sentence 4, "You will do better soon," is grammatically correct. Here, the adverb "better" is used to modify the verb "do." It implies an improvement in the way you will perform an action.
Remember to consider the correct form of adverbs when describing actions or behaviors in sentences.
