Question of sport

七月 14, 1995

May I alert readers to 바카라사이트 dangers of writing 바카라사이트 opposite of what you mean when using 바카라사이트 phrase "바카라사이트re is no question that"? I have found cricket commentators especially using it to assert something positively. There, 바카라사이트 events of 바카라사이트 game will usually clarify 바카라사이트 meaning; but in o바카라사이트r contexts ambiguity might arise.

Your correspondent, Ian Masser (바카라 사이트 추천S, July 7), wrote "바카라사이트re is no question that 바카라사이트 universities take 바카라사이트 advice . . . ". From 바카라사이트 context, one ga바카라사이트rs that he meant "바카라사이트re is no doubt that . . . ", but current educated usage would give it 바카라사이트 opposite meaning. So, if you want to use "question" ra바카라사이트r than "doubt" in that way, you should write "바카라사이트re is no question but that . . . ". See Michael Dummett's Grammar and Style (Duckworth, 1993) p.49.
