In response to The ESL instructor: animal, vegetable, or ... BS artist? (The Arrogant One)
you id##t! dont start a sentence with "and". a sentence represents something, thats why a full stop(.) is used - to represent the end of a thing. that is, it's self contained. it may not represent the whole context it is used in, but nonetheless it is still self contained in meaning. the word "and" is to combine two things together, so logically you shouldn't use "and" at the start of a sentence. i'm just a 5 year old local chinese student and look i can spot you st##id mistakes you amatuer teacher!
