hi guys! I have a questions for you. I coud not find the certain answer.
first of all ; in the sentence "don �t wait for me for dinner" ; is the first "FOR" necessary? couldn �t it be like this : "don �t wait me for dinner" ?
and secodly, in the phrase "Honours list of Turkish diplomats" is the first word "Honours" or "Honour" ? I have to find the answer untill tomorrow. share your opinions with me please..... thank you very much. |

Hi,
In the first question, we say in Englsih for example: I am waiting for you whether for dinner or breakfast.
But the next one, I am not sure about it, but it could be the second.

"wait for" and "honour" are the correct answers. |

Don �t wait for me for dinner

hi
in my modest opinion,"don �t wait for me at dinner" seems to be the appropriate one.As for the second one, " honour or honor " are both correct;but not honours or honors because honour is an uncountable noun
good luck |

Hi Songul
Correct: Don�t wait for me for dinner
Correct: honours -- In British English the correct form is honours list (you can check here to confirm) however you will find that many NS will use both honour and honours. The government generally uses honours. I�m not sure about American English so maybe an AE speaker can confirm.
Cheers
Jayho

Jayho is correct.
In the USA we use both "honor list" and "honors list" (using the US spelling of honor). |

and Douglas will agree with me that it �s "Don �t wait for me for dinner." If you don �t like the double "for", you can say, "Don �t hold dinner for me" or even "Don �t hold up dinner for me."
