When you say, “will start on January 12,” you don’t use “to” after. You could say, “will begin on January 12 and end on May 12″ or “will start on January 12 and end on May 12 or “will work from January 12 to May 12.”

What is the right way to ask: do you have any questions? or do you have some questions? Or may be both are right? Thanks

Jane - this is just a general comment and not specific to this particular topic. Your regular e-mails are an absolute tonic and to discover this blog where you actually take the time and trouble to comment on the postings that your fans make is fantastic.

My BIG bug-bear in life is coping with the difference between American and UK spellings. You colonials should be using the UK spellings
…….erm, that was just meant as a joke folks, so no hate mail ;-D
