In order or In order? Rules, examples and when to use

protection click fraud

Affine or affine are two terms that cause a lot of confusion among language users. Using this term together or separately can affect the understanding of the text.

While the first is part of a phrase, the second is an adjective. So, it's worth knowing what the purpose is so that you don't make more mistakes.

To

The term, when used separately, is part of a prepositional phrase “in order to”. In this case, it has the meaning of finality. That is, it presents an intention, an objective, an intention or a purpose.

Example: In order to discuss current issues, the teacher called an expert.

For a better view, we can see that in the example above if we change the "in order to" for other terms, the phrase has the same meaning:

With the purposein discuss current issues, the teacher called an expert.

In orderin discuss current issues, the teacher called an expert.

With the objectivein discuss current issues, the teacher called an expert.

with the purposein discuss current issues, the teacher called an expert.

with the intentionin discuss current issues, the teacher called an expert.

Note: It is common to use this term to refer to something that pleases us, that we feel like it or even when we are interested in someone.

In this case, it accompanies the verb "to be": to be in love with someone; be in the mood for something, etc.

joel is to of Ana.

I am to to go to the beach this weekend.

Importantly, this term is used in informal or colloquial language. In other words, we should not use it in a formal text, unless that is the focus, for example, in the speech of characters.

To

When we use this term together it belongs to the grammatical classes of nouns and adjectives. Note that if used in the plural, the term is “affine” and not “affine”.

As a noun, the term is synonymous with affinity, kinship, ally.

I will invite all family members and alike.

When it plays the role of an adjective in the sentence, it means equal, similar, close.
