Hello native English speakers. 1. Though we may detest him, we must acknowledge his greatness. 2. No matter how much we detest him, we must acknowledge his greatness. 3. Detest him as we may, we must acknowledge his greatness. 4. Detest we him as we may, we must acknowledge his greatness. Question A: Which is grammatically correct? I guess all are grammatically correct except sentence 4. However, my grammar book states that sentence 4 is also correct. Furthermore, it points out that the concessive adverbial structure introduced by "as" can also form a complex sentence containing an object clause. When the subject of the main clause and the (object) clause are both the same personal pronoun, the subject of the main clause is often omitted. Question B: Look and sentences 4 (4. Detest we him as we may, we must acknowledge his greatness.), here, my question is: Notice the first "we" in sentence 4, which , according to my grammar book, indicates that the first"we" here is the subject of the main clause. Then what is the object clause here?

My family is planning to go to Korea at the end of the year. There are five people in my family. My older sister often goes to Korea, so this time she will guide us. It will be my first time traveling abroad, so I am very excited. I usually watch Korean dramas, so I cannot wait to eat Korean food and buy cute clothes in Korea. The food I want to eat the most is something like Japanese oden that they have in Korea. I think Korea will be cold, so I want to eat warm food and wear thick clothes to stay warm. I want to visit Itaewon and Seoul. My younger sister likes makeup, so we also want to go to Korean cosmetic shops. If we have time, I want to wear a traditional dress called hanbok and take pictures. I really hope this plan will come true. I have more things I want to do at the end of the year. For example, I want to go to the first shrine visit of the year and draw a fortune slip. I also want to eat delicious food from food stalls. Every year I go to see the first sunrise with my friends, so I want to go this year too. I really love my mother’s ozoni, so I want to eat that and osechi as well. I also want to work hard at my part-time job so I can go out and have fun a lot.
