  • Asked on November 21, 2021 in Grammar.

    Can you tell me a number of possible English language mistakes you never realized? For example, the expression is “Daily to day” and not “Daily to day”.

    What are great differences between English dialects? None of these are wrong, just different, and an expression that might be common in one dialect might be totally absent from another. If you are talking all from the one who’s talking about you then it depends.

    All of your sentences are grammatically correct. Which is more common than any other.

    I prefer dancing to swimming
    from time to time in the summer and I don’t prefer swimming to dancing. and I live in the summer.
    I would prefer to dance rather than swim.

    Some are more wordy, but perhaps the best way to express what you mean. I

    prefer to dance tango. Rather than dancing mambo.

    Why “would prefer” is no different from “prefer” in that you can use either the infinitive or the gerund:

    I prefer dancing in the moonlight to doing my taxes.
    Taxes: I’m happy dancing in the moonlight than doing taxes. I also like working on my phones.

    Besides getting taxes, I enjoy moonlight dancing rather than doing tax return.
    I would prefer to be dancing in the moonlight rather than completing my taxes.

    If there is every other way of saying preference, it can be so easily used. And how can I express my own preference? I don’t use any particular expression when I can say that the expression is far more common or that one is often using a different one; I know, from listening to native speakers, how to use it.

    In the case of “I prefer to dance rather than swim”, the word “to” is usually part of the infinitive “to dance” and “to swim” and not part of the expression “prefer to…” The word “?” is used equally; one to out of two.
