Mini-Research Question 10:
If I can say "generally speaking" before I give my opinion, can I use any other adverb with 'speaking'?
First go to http://vlc.polyu.edu.hk/ and find the "Web Concordancer" in the middle of the page.
To search this we can put in a part of a word. As many
adverbs end in "lly", we can get the Concordancer to search that.
Type in the words "lly speaking" in the "Keyword"
box. Please note in the first box change
it from "equal to" to "contains". After youve
typed in "lly speaking" hit
the "Go" icon.
Remember to look out for the answers which will be
given with the next question next week!
