Takeover (Covid-19/20)

I'm afraid it's you that's not understanding sir.

He could be presently working on a case surrounding what was the proposed takeover and that's presently no longer actually proposed.

 

I've already explained about the past and present tense verbs.

It's you, who as usua,l who is wrong..

The word 'proposed' can indeed be used in both the past tense and the present tense.

In order to know which you need a verb. If the verb in the sentence is past tense then it is used in the past tense. If the verb is in the present tense then the user if the word is in the present.

Guess which it is?
That's right
The verb is 'is' which is present tense therefore the word 'proposed'is being used in the present tense

 

I unusual use of a comma and you need three of those.
Where's the pedant thread when you need it?

 

The start of this sentence......

 

That's irrelevant

 

Glad you finally understand English grammar.... Back to primary school for you.

 

He hasn't got a clue.

 

You've got no idea

 

I do... Let me explain.

You used the word irrelevant which can be used in either the past or present tense.

You used the verb is

That means you are using the word irrelevant in the present tense

I assumed you were giving me another example. You were weren't you?

 

You've totally misunderstood as usual

 

Not really. You just don't know how to hold your hands up and say that you were in the........ Wrong

 

Why would I admit I was wrong when you're wrong

 

Right anyway that's another idiot dealt with, so can we get back on topic.

 

Poised can be both used in present tense and last tense.

How do you know if it's past or present tense?

The verb.

I am denotes present tense

So I am poised which suggests you are presently poised

I was denotes the past tense

I was poised which suggests you are no longer poised

In your case this is the past tense.

You were poised in the cup predictions but sadly you lost out to?

Checks notes....."another idiot"

 

In 2021, De Marco is acting for Newcastle United FC in relation to the club’s proposed Saudi takeover

So in that phrase above. Nick “Is” means presently. But then it does not indicate pre the word proposed whether the event is either past or present right?

So in that statement it could be either couldn’t it?

 

Congratulations

 

How about him just saying nick is currently dealing with an arbitration case for the change of ownership of nufc?

 

No
