– the French made the meter
– kilogram is now based and measured on Planck’s constant

– links labeled “in a new study” in articles can be used for good source content

The definition of a kilogram
How do we define measurements
Affect/effect
Affect is a verb
Effect is a noun
It adjusts when to use a verb and when to use a noun
Two/to/too
Two is a number, to is used in every other case of a sentence, too is a combination or inclusion of something
Then/than
Then is used for time and consequence
than is used for comparison of something
Pronouns and gender
if the gender or a gender is not the basis or not addressed in the topic, do not assume the gender of your audience
The tile of books are written in italics not quotes
Chapters within the book should be written in quotes and use double quotes around what the author or one of the characters within a book states
Single quotes for quotes within a quote
Close the single quote and the double quote
Never use second person;You,Yours, You’re,
Plurals and possessives
Make the plural and make the ‘s, and figure out if the ‘s come after the word in plural form
Names that require ‘s should be said aloud to help with corrects punctuaiton
A kilogram is a piece of metal that someone chose to weigh a kilogram and now everything is based off of that one piece of metal
Perfect attendance study: someone who has perfect attendance and is later promised a certificate usually stops summing to school because it is not worth it to keep coming just for a lousy piece of paper.
Fails for grammar: Rule 9: Affect, Effect is one of the hardest ones for me to understand. Rule number 14 is also one that is hard for me. Sometimes I cannot tell. whether to use a plural or possessive verb.
Affect=Verb Effect=Noun
