Non discriminatory in writing
This document discusses non-discriminatory language in writing. It begins by defining discrimination as unfair treatment based on attributes such as race, gender or age. It then provides examples of discriminatory language to avoid in writing, such as gendered words that assume roles, as well as guidelines for inclusive language. Specific attributes covered include gender, disability, race and ethnicity. For each, recommendations are given for respectful terms to use instead of discriminatory language. The conclusion emphasizes developing a non-biased attitude and choosing words carefully to avoid offending. The goal is to use fair language that does not discriminate.

The document also provides rules for converting sentences between compound and complex types.

3) "Whether" is used when the clause begins with the word "whether".
4) "Whether" is used when followed by "or not" to indicate a choice between two options.
How to identify a noun in a sentence
Nouns can be identified in sentences based on certain rules:
1. Nouns are often followed by articles like "a", "an", or "the".
2. Nouns may also be followed by prepositions.
3. Quantifiers like numbers or terms indicating amount can follow nouns.
4. Phrases can be formed with an article, adjective, and noun.
5. Countable nouns have plural forms while uncountable nouns do not but take determiners.

- 1. CONNECTORS - CHOICE Compiled & Voiced by Nageswar Rao. A English Teacher Courtesy Mr. K. V. Madhusudan Resource Person ( Enlish)
- 2. Either/or and neither/nor 1.Either / or - used in a sentence in the affirmative sense when referring to a choice between two possibilities We can either eat now or after the show - it's up to you. 2. Neither / nor - used in a sentence in the negative sense when you want to say that two or more things are not true Neither my mother nor my father went to university. Singular or plural
- 3. When using either/or and neither/nor, note the following rules: 1. If both elements are singular, then the verb is singular too. Either the father or the mother has to attend the meeting. (father and mother are singular; so the verb has is singular too) Neither Leila nor Nancy is going to write the report. (Leila and Nancy are singular; so the verb is singular too) 2. However, if one of the elements is plural, then use a plural verb. Either Radha or the girls are going to prepare dinner tonight. (the girls is plural; so the verb are is plural too) Neither the teacher nor the students were in the classroom this morning. (the students is plural; so the verb were is plural too)
