xurich: However, there are lots of - so called - "love marriages", too.
xurich: why are those hyphens there
xurich: also, put the comma inside the quotation marks
xurich: However, there are lots of so-called "love marriages," too.
alper: ok
xurich: The characters, the plot and nearly everything else just indicate quite the opposite.
alper: yea?
xurich: while it's correct to do it that way, I would suggest using a comma between the penultimate and final items in a list
xurich: The characters, the plot, and nearly everything else...
xurich: less ambiguous
alper: asd
alper: can you explain that in easy words pls?
xurich: At the beginning of the movie this isn't obvious at all though, because one of the main characters, Aditi Verma, who is supposed to marry an Indian computer expert from USA, is between a rock and a hard place.
alper: i have commas there
xurich: from the USA
xurich: i did
alper: kk
xurich: 0:30pm) (@xurich) The characters, the plot, and nearly everything else...
xurich: see where i put the extra comma
alper: i see k
xurich: also, this isn't a grammatical thing, but i don't understand what you mean by "between a rock and a hard place"
xurich: Aside from this Aditi has a love affair with a famous TV producer, who she works for.
xurich: Aside from this, Aditi...
xurich: put the comma in there
xurich: Although she is aware of the fact, that he is married, she falls in love with him and strongly believes in his promises that he will get divorced from his wife soon.
xurich: remove the first comma from that one
alper: done
xurich: She is so good at it, that you could say that she has never done something else than getting married by force, lol.
xurich: i wouldn't include "lol" man
alper: lol
alper: good that you reminded me of that
alper: i was heading to removing it
xurich: Vijay Raaz, who is in charge of the role of the wedding-organizer P.K. Dubey, has probably attained cult status after this movie.
xurich: what is P. K. Dubey
xurich: his name or something?
alper: name
xurich: put a comma before it
xurich: wedding organizer, P.K. Dubey, has probably
xurich: remove the hyphen between wedding and organizer too
alper: okay
xurich: Furthermore it deals with very important subjects like sexual abuse, too.
xurich: Remove the "too" from the end because furthermore suggests the same meaning and thus it's redundant
xurich: other than that everything looks fine grammatically
alper: very nice
alper: thank you very much
xurich: i thought some parts were written especially well too
alper: really?
alper: yea give me props man
xurich: She apparently doesn't want them to lose their faith in her. Hence she decides to play the role of the well-behaved daughter, who is willing to follow the orders and plans of her parents, without having a clear idea of what to do, when the day of the marriage has come.
xurich: like I thought that was written well
xurich: ok brb homo gather
alper: ::)) hf
