QUESTION
Why is it "smell good" but not "smell well"?
Actually, both of these are valid phrases. However, they are used for different purposes.
A person “smells good” when they are exuding a pleasant odor.
A person “smells well” when their sense of smell is working fine, and they have no trouble detecting different fragrances and odors.
What we can’t do is tell someone they “smell well” in the same way that we tell them that they “look well.” It would be strange and unusual.
For instance, “Hey John. You look well,” is fine because the person could be looking chirpy and healthy.
But, “Hey John. You smell well,” will be strange, even if the person is giving off a nice fragrance. Instead, “Hey John. You smell good,” will be suitable.
▪️exude [ɪgˊzju:d] v
1) выделя́ть(ся)
2) распространя́ть вокру́г себя́
▪️chirpy [ˊtʃɜ:pɪ] a
разг. живо́й, весёлый

| 2 | (4) “TO HAVE” MEANING “TO EXPERIENCE” OR “TO UNDERGO” OR “TO BE IN SOME STATE”:
The use of “to have” with this meaning is somewhat irregular, since there is no pattern for the use of the simple form versus the continuous form.
For internal states or experiences generally, we do not use the continuous form:
• I have a headache, so I’m going to lie down for a bit. (✔)
→ I am having a headache, so I’m going to lie down for a bit. (X)
• She fainted because she had a terrible shock. (✔)
→ She fainted because she was having a terrible shock. (X)
• My cat has an itch behind his right ear that he is trying to scratch. (✔)
→ My cat is having an itch behind his right ear that he is trying to scratch. (X)
For external experiences or states caused by some external cause, we use the continuous form for a specific situation, and the simple form for a general statement:
• He is having a shower right now and cannot come to the phone. (✔)
→ He has a shower right now and cannot come to the phone. (X)
• He has a shower as soon as he gets back from his jog every morning. (✔) (→ general statement)
→ He is having a shower as soon as he gets back from his jog every morning. (X)
• I am having an extraction at the dentist’s this afternoon. (✔)
→ I have an extraction at the dentist’s the afternoon. (X)
• We are having fun at the party, so we won’t be back home until late tonight. (✔)
→ We have fun at the party, so we won’t be back home until late tonight. (X)
• We always have fun at Liza’s parties. (✔) (→ general statement)
→ We are always having fun at Liza’s parties. (X)

| 3 | (3) “TO HAVE” USED AS A CAUSATIVE VERB:
When “to have” is used as a causative verb, we use the continuous form for a specific situation and the simple form for a general statement (as we do with any ordinary action verb).
Here are some examples:
• We are having our house renovated, so we have to stay at a hotel for a couple of weeks.(✔)
→ We have our house renovated, so we have to stay at a hotel for a couple of weeks. (X)
• We have our house repainted every seven years. (✔)
→ We are having our house repainted every seven years. (X)
• Have you heard the latest? The school is having the teachers check their students’ hair for lice. (✔)
→ Have you heard the latest? The school has the teachers check their students’ hair for lice. (X)
• In the Netherlands, primary schools regularly have special checkers check the students’ hair for lice during the first week after a major school holiday. (✔)
→ In the Netherlands, primary schools regularly are having special checkers check the students’ hair for lice during the first week after a major school holiday. (X)

| 4 | (2) “TO HAVE” MEANING “TO EAT”, “TO DRINK”, “TO CONSUME”
For this meaning we use the continuous form, not the simple form, when we are talking about a specific situation. We use the simple form only when we are making a general statement. This is because the actions of eating and drinking can be started and stopped, and we can control how long the action continues, and the action automatically comes to an end at some point. This is different from the state of possessing or owning, which often cannot be started and stopped and started again, or controlled by us according to our wishes.
Here are some examples:
• We are having chicken for supper tonight.(✔) (→ specific situation)
→ We have chicken for supper tonight. (X)
→ We have chicken for supper about twice a week. (✔) (→ general statement)
• What are you having, tea or coffee? (✔) (→ specific situation)
→ What do you have, tea or coffee? (X)
→ What do you usually have for breakfast, tea or coffee? (✔) (→ general statement)
• We are having lunch at the moment. Can you call back later? (✔) (→ specific situation)
→ We have lunch at the moment. Can you call back later? (X)
→ We usually have lunch at about one o’clock. (✔) (→ general statement)

| 5 | QUESTION
Is it grammatically correct to say “I am having” in English? I saw a lot of people doing it.
The verb “to have” has several meanings and uses. For some meanings and uses, we do not use the continuous form, but for other meanings and uses we do use the continuous form. The topic is vast and complex and the best we can do here is provide some general descriptions of various usages.
(1) “TO HAVE” MEANING “TO POSSESS”, “TO OWN”:
For this meaning, we do not use the continuous form, since possessing or owning is already a continuous or ongoing state. We can possess or own something only over a period of time. We cannot possess or own something for only a moment (one point in time). So, “to have” in this sense is already continuousfrom the very beginning and it is therefore unnecessary to differentiate between the “simple” form and the “continuous” form.
Here are some examples:
• Mona has two brothers and a sister. (✔)
→ Mona is having two brothers and a sister. (X)
• She has brown eyes and long dark hair. (✔)
→ She is having brown eyes and long dark hair. (X)
• My brother had a motorbike when he was in college. (✔)
→ My brother was having a motorbike when he was in college. (X)
• Our country will have freedom when this government is overthrown. (✔)
→ Our country will be having freedom when this government is overthrown. (X)

| 6 | QUESTION
Is there any grammatical error in this sentence, "I made my friend to study hard for the examination"?
The error is the use of the full infinitive “to study”.
When the verb “to make” is used in its causative sense, it is followed by a bare infinitive (infinitive without “to”), not the full infinitive. The basic sentence structure is:
• X makes Y do Z (→ NOT: “ to do Z”)
This usage is common to the verbs “to have” (used in a causative sense) and “to let”. Here are some examples:
• The teacher made the students stand in a straight line. (→ NOT: “to stand”)
• We had the painters paint our house green.(→ NOT: “to paint”)
• The teacher let the students go home early.(→ NOT: “to go”)
In American English, this use of the bare infinitive is also applied to the verb “to help”:
• I helped my friend study for the exam.(Amer.)
In older English usage, the verb “to bid” (meaning “to tell somebody to do something”) also followed this pattern—though this meaning of “to bid” has now become obsolete. This verb was an irregular verb—”bid / bade / bidden”. Here is an example:
• The king bade the guards bring the accused man in.
Remember, this usage is now obsolete. You should not try to use it in current English.
When the verb “to make” is not used causatively, if it is followed by an infinitive, then the infinitive has to be the full infinitive, and it expresses purpose.
• I made notecards to help my friend study more efficiently for the exam.
Here, the full infinitive “to help” expresses the purpose of the action of making notecards. There is no causation involved in the sentence and therefore no bare infinitive.
So, “I made my friend to study hard for the examination” means: “I created my friend because I wanted to study hard for my examination”. Of course, that makes absolutely no sense.

"I am a very versatile person." Is this grammatically correct?
While the statement “I am a very versatile person” is grammatically correct, it is a very clunky way of stating your ability.
“Versatile” refers to the quality of performing a wide range of tasks or adapting to a wide range of situations without difficulty. To add “very” to it is like adding a cup of water to a brimming swimming pool. The word already points to an indefinitely broad quality. “Very” doesn’t do anything here.
This is similar to saying “very perfect.” It’s grammatically correct but linguistically, it’s not right at all. “Perfect” already implies a fully accomplished rank so adding “very” is redundant.

Is “she is beautiful than me” grammatically correct?
No, the statement “She is beautiful than me…” is not grammatically correct.
When you are comparing one person to another (or one thing to another, one place to another, etc.) you have to use comparative adjectives. The comparative form of “beautiful” is “more beautiful.”
Hence, the correct version would be “She is more beautiful than me.”
However, please bear in mind that a strict prescriptivist would say that using “me” here is incorrect. You should use “I” and complete it like this: She is more beautiful than I am.
In normal, everyday English, it is considered fine to say “She is more beautiful than me.”

Why is it correct to say "Thirty pounds is a lot of weight to lose," even though pounds seem plural? What's the rule here?
It is not helpful to think in terms of “rules”. There is a logical relationship involved, and if you understand the logical relationship you will understand why the third-person singular form of the verb is used.
“Thirty pounds” is a quantity and as such it is uncountable. It is measurable, but not countable. Each pound does not operate separately. All thirty pounds operate together as one single amount or quantity. That quantity “is” singular.
This applies to any quantity, not just a quantity of weight.
For example, money is an uncountable noun, even though we count dollars or euros or yen or rupees or some other currency. No matter how many “dollars” there are, the amount is always one amount, and that amount is therefore singular.
$1,500 has been set aside for repairs to the roof of the school library. [→ NOT: “$1,500 have been set aside …” (X).]
If we were to ask about the amount of money involved in the repairs, we would say:
How much money has been set aside for the repairs? (→ NOT: “How much money have been set aside …?)
and the answer obviously would be:
$1,500 has been set aside.
Similarly, if we were to ask about the amount of weight that needs to be lost, we would say:
How much weight needs to be lost? (→ NOT: “How much weight need to be lost?)
There can hardly be any doubt that the quantity is logically singular, not plural.
We would never say:
$1,500 are a lot of money to lose. (X)
In the same way, we could not logically say:
Thirty pounds are a lot of weight to lose. (X)
Here are some other examples:
250 ml of olive oil is added to the mixture a little at a time. [NOT: “250 ml of olive oil are added …” (X)]
Twenty-five miles is a long way to run for most people. [→ NOT: “Twenty-five miles are a long way to run” (X).]

| 12 | QUESTION
Is "according to me" correct?
There is nothing wrong with it grammatically, but it is logically awkward.
We use “according to” only when we want to present some other source as the authority for what we are saying. If we are the source of the information, then it is not “according to”, since we are speaking on our own authority.
If I know that something is true, I can say with confidence that it is true and explain why I know that it is true. Perhaps I saw it myself, and I am convinced that it is true. It is only when we cannot provide such an explanation that we use “according to” and we then provide the source of the information.
•According to the weather forecast, tomorrow will the the hottest day on record since 1959.
•You are supposed to take your shoes off before entering a house, according to the custom of our culture.
These are appropriate uses of “according to”, since we are providing some source other than ourselvesas the source of the information we are presenting.
We might use “according to me” in a “joking” sort of way in, as in the following brief dialogue:
A: The final match of the tournament has been postponed until tomorrow.
B: Really? According to whom?
A: According to me.
