Could you please disambiguate that? I am confused.
Does it mean "Everyone who is left" or "Everyone who has left"?
Thanks!
Edit: For anyone who wonders what the heck I was talking about, the parent comment originally said "Everyone who's left" - and I honestly was not sure which it meant. That comment has now been edited to read "Everyone who has left", so I am grateful for the clarification.
I would delete this comment since it's now moot, but since a couple of people were kind enough to reply, deleting it now would probably make things even more confusing. :-)
- epmaybe 9y agoEveryone who has left
- fenomas 9y agoThe first para is those that are left, hence the latter is those that have left.
- dmoy 9y agoWe goin' way into grammar land now, but not necessarily - you can repeat the same initial clause like that for emphasis: Everyone who is left is xyz. Everyone who is left is abc. Everyone who is left is (insert usually more dramatic thing than xyz or abc).
