Which is correct grammar to say using correctly or correctly using?

An adverb my come before or after the verb it is describing. It is fine to say "using correctly" and to say "correctly using". One hesitation would be if you are using an adverb to describe a verb in its infinitive form. Traditionally it has been considered incorrect to use the adverb before the verb. This is called a split infinitive. So if unless you're an established author, stay away from using phrases like "to correctly use".


Which sentence uses the word substitute correctly?

What are the rules for when to use 'has' or 'have?

"has" should be used when the subject is singular.Eg. John has a car."have" should be used when the subject is plural.Eg. My friends have a car.There are some exceptions to the rule: I and You use "have". Eg. I have a car.A good way to help work out which to use is to ask yourself the following two questions: 1) What is the subject? 2) Is the subject singular or plural?Eg. John's dog has a kennel. Here the dog is the subject. "dog" is singular, so we use "has".Eg. John's pets have a home. Here the pets are the subject. "pets" is plural, so we use "have".


Is EG at beginning of sentence grammatical?

No, "EG" should not be used at the beginning of a sentence as it is typically used in the middle or end of a sentence to introduce an example. If you need to use it in the beginning of a sentence, consider rephrasing the sentence to improve flow and clarity.
