唔好咁老定。例如英國佬就有條咁嘅法例:
If any person prints or stamps, or by any like means impresses, on any bank note any words, letters or figures, he shall, in respect of each offence, be liable on summary conviction to a penalty not exceeding [F1 level 1 on the standard scale].
Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven and nature sing,
And Heaven, and Heaven, and nature sing.
Joy to the world, the Savior reigns!
Let men their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make His blessings flow
Far as the curse is found,
Far as the curse is found,
Far as, far as, the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders, wonders, of His love.
其中提及的事件,有些係以前發生嘅,有些係尚未成就嘅,但係點解一律用present tense?有一年的太陽神節前夕,薏蘊獻詩係唱此首,但詩冇安排會眾發問,所以冇機會提問,還望英文好的網友們再次賜教
Don't know where God is but the Devil is in the details
得閒同Regional Director XOX去溝通下啦。記得帶埋您個玩具琴去,伴奏佢地唱Joy to the world, the Lord is come,然後請教下在場同胞們,點解係"the Lord is come"而唔係"the Lord has come"或"was come"? "come"係作為verb呢,定係一個冇得解嘅phrase?算係咩grammer?点解係"He comes to make His blessings flow" 又唔係"He came to"?
