Question

correct the following sentences:1. i have not been waited very long. 2. i congratulates you for yoir success.

Answer 1

The above two sentences may be corrected as follows:

1. I have not been waiting very long.

2. I congratulate you for your success.

In the first sentence, the word 'waited' is used incorrectly and hence it has been changed to 'waiting'.

In the second sentence, 'congratulates' is incorrect and this has been corrected to 'congratulate'.

Answer 2

Correct sentence 1 ¬–

I have not been waiting for very long.

Reason –

The entire sentence is in present perfect tense, so the verb wait cannot be used in the past tense.

Correct sentence 2 –

I congratulate you on your success.

Reason –

The word congratulates can be used with he or she (second person).

With I (first person) the word congratulate will be used.
