What (exact) tense are these sentences in?
Some examples (they should all be the same tense.....i think):
- "I'll just wash the bathmat when i see it needs washing"
- "They'll wait till i'm just chilling out then...."
- "...the next night, i'll go ".....""
- "....and then they'll walk over...."
Its supposed to be narrative but its not in the normal past tense. I don't get the feeling its present perfect but then i really don't remember anything about tenses....future perfect maybe?
BQ: If you can tell me what kind of narratives these clauses would fall under that'll help even more. Its not Labovian, so either; habitual or hypothetical. Or just explain the difference between the two.
Thanks
2 AnswersLanguages8 years agoHelp with NHS dental costs please?
I had an appointment for a checkup last week because i was experiencing discomfort with my wisdom teeth coming through. It lasted less than 5 mins, just the dentist poking around. She prescribed me some antibiotics. She then said i'd need to come back next week to have my teeth cleaned. She didn't say it but i assume this means a 'scale and polish'.
When i went back to the front desk i was told it would cost £35 in total. She told me to pay £17.50 just for that day and the rest when i come back for the cleaning. I paid because they were really busy but i was under the impression that an examination plus a scale and polish would just cost £17.50. Being that they are both part of band 1 and it says on the website that you only have to pay one charge for any each course of treatment (even if you have to come back a different day to have it completed) and also that you wouldn't be charged for individual items within the course of treatment, shouldn't I not have to pay anything next week?
I can't call the dentist because they are closed this week until the day i have my appointment. I just want to make sure before i go so i dont end up paying any necessary costs (i'm rather broke at the moment).
Or is the cost justified i.e. do they count as two separate courses of treatment?
1 AnswerDental9 years agoWhat song did Micky Flanagan walk on to on Live at the Apollo (link included)?
Just the first 18 or so seconds.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V-bqJbC2fW4
It sounds 80s-ish with a male singing. The only lyrics i can pick up are 'You got to move' or 'You got the groove'. Something that sounds something like that but Google isn't picking anything up. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

13 AnswersRock and Pop10 years agoIs there a difference between the legalization of prostitutes and the act of prostitution?
My essay question states something along the lines of 'arguments for and against the legalization of sex workERS'. I already defined the term 'sex work' to refer specifically to prostitutes but the '...ers' part throws me off.
Is there a difference between the legalization of sex workers themselves and legalization of the act of prostitution?
I'm not sure because if the workers were legal, then it would be classed as a legitimate occupation but if someone not within the occupation commits the act, would that then still be illegal? (If just the workers were legalized.)
The legalization of the act seems a much broader argument.

9 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agoWhen i double click on it, how do i set my disk drive to open a DVD in something other than WMP?
It autoplays with VLC which is how i set it but when i click on the actual DVD icon in my computer it opens Windows Media Player (It can't play DVDs).
I know i can right-click and select 'play with VLC' but i dont want to have to do this every time (i forget).
How can i set it so that when i double click on the icon it plays it in VLC?

1 AnswerVideo & Online Games1 decade agoUK resident, Japanese passport question?
I was born here in the UK. My father and mother were both born in Japan and are fully Japanese. Ive always had Japanese passports, and on one of the early ones, i have a stamp stating that i have leave to remain. (Ive shown it to people before as proof of my residency).
However, my passport expires in about a month. My father wants me to get a new one, but i really dont think i need it. I'm going to university later this year, dont intend to travel and have my birth certificate stating i was born here anyway.
If i dont get a new one now will it be more trouble to get one later? Or can i just leave it and apply for one the same way?
BTW i'm 20 right now and i know theres some rules about choosing your nationality but im not exactly sure what they are. I dont mind if i can only get a british passport later (if i can). I dont even know if i have dual-nationality...
Any help is appreciated. Please and Thank you ^^

4 AnswersOther - Music1 decade agoNeed help with a flower name?
This flower only grows about once a year in my garden, hence why i have no picture. I can only give a description (a hazy one at that) but i'll do my best.
The plant itself has about 10cm long leaves (may have been longer) and the flower itself grows atop a pretty thick stem (as compared to other flowers). Only one flower from this plant blooms at about once a year.
It has quite a few red petal (i mean as opposed to something like a tulip. Its quite similar to a rose, sort of). The middle of the flower is black and the flower itself is quite large.
As i recall there was small leaves directly at the base of the flower and the stem seemed to have a furry texture.
Thats all i can remember...
I think the petals start to turn black as it wilts but i may be wrong about that....
Ive wanted to find out what it is for ages. Any help is appreciated. Please and Thank you.
3 AnswersBotany1 decade agoFF12 Scarletite (loot) question?
Trying for tournesol.
I know you can get it from the Asp-something turtle rare monster but i killed it.
Also from the Emeraldtans in the Deadlands but killed lots and no luck.
And from the Fishing game in the Den of the River Lord or something place. I can do this fine but often i miss one and its not good for my blood pressure. And i have yet to get even one.
So i was wondering which is better to keep killing the Emeraldtans of which there isnt even that many, or to keep with the fishing game (i read it was a random reward, but i keep getting adamantite)?
Please and thank you.
2 AnswersVideo & Online Games1 decade agoWhats better than Schadenfreude?
That wasnt rhetorical. Today ive been feeling like ...well really bad. I'm depressed...well my therapist says so...she says i also have PTSD...but thats a whole different story. Im cripilingly shy and so have no friends and the only people i see all day are my dad (who works till past midnight) and my bro who goes to bed in the daytime (cause he works at night). No job, at home all day bored out of my mind.
Anyway, you dont need to know my life story. I was just wondering if theres anything better than schadenfreude that makes you feel better because its not working.
Stupid random videos and bad jokes at this point do not.
