有關英文grammar..

1. People 後唔需要s因為people本身已經係plural(person的複數)

2. 就咁睇grammar上就冇乜問題,但讀落去好似有少少怪怪地.
咁好似會順d
however, i must remind you that not everything is about earning money. All these benefits are only in rhost-term.

希望幫到你

1. If you are talking about 不同的種族, then people 後可以加 s

2. I think your sentence should be:

"However,I must remind you that earning lots of money is not everything.All these benefits are in short-term only.

I would rewrite the sentence as:

"I must remind you that earning lots of money is not everything, all these benefits are in short-term only."

The grammer problem should be in the use of "However".

1--people後面唔需要"s"
因為佢本身已經係雙數

2-- 如果你告訴我點解你覺得係錯，我可以解釋。但係這果句子係無錯的。

grammar上無問題

(1) people後面果個字係咪唔應該+s?
The word PEOPLE is in plural form. So, 唔應該+s. For example: In general, HK people are very nice and friendly.

(2) However,I must remind you that earning lots of money is not everything.All these benefits are in rhost-term only.
第一句, 我都建議個 lot 字無 s, because money 係數唔到. 第二句, OK, rhost-term => short-term?? 如果要配合前句, 可以改成 It is because this benefit is in short-term only. 但如果, benefits 指除了money, 重有幾樣的話呢, 基本上, 我覺得OK.

1) People 不一定不能加 s ..... 那麼 , 在什麼時候可以加呢?

就是當句子描述了那班 people 是有不同種族的時候 , 就可以是 peoples.


2) 首先不好意思 , 我不懂什麼叫做 rhost-term , 所以很難 comment 有什麼錯 ,
我只能盡量的話你知

我諗, 應該 earning lots of money 改為 earning lot of money

因為 lot 的意思己經是很多的意思了 , 己經是 plural , 除非 money 是
classify 為很多不同類別的 money, 但英語慣用語時 , 都是用 lot of
money

其他的 , 或等其他高人指教

現在我知道是 short-term 的意思, 我想句子不該這樣口語化了.... 我想該寫為 :2. However, I must remind you that earning lot of money is not everything. This is short-term benefit only. 我想 , short-term 是形容詞 , 後面該有名詞去表達 , 因為 "earning lot of money" 是一個 clause, 所以用 is , 而後面都是呼應前面的 clause, 所以用 this is
