6 April 2009 16:09 | | | Well...actually it IS a complete imperative sentence. It's like "Inform the people!"  | | |
6 April 2009 16:11 | | | Tell the people what? "inform the people" would be acceptable IMO.
I had a translation into French to evaluate and this is not a complete sentence, although it was literaly translated, as requester wanted... | | |
6 April 2009 16:12 | | | I know what you mean...but technically... | | |

6 April 2009 16:40 | | | Thank you for your interest in my sentence, and your effort to uncover my meaning.
To try to shed light, I meant the imperative form to be used as a slogan or a phrase. My mistake in not punctuating the sentence with a stop, or an exclamation mark. However, it is the form of the sentence that i am interested in. As you say, perhaps 'inform' may have been more appropriate. |
