Hey friends, when we want to tell someone he should get something done by following a certain sequence, shouldn't we say "in the order of something" like "you can select three options in order of your preference", is this an American thing using on instead of in ??? 1. We will draw lots on the order. 2. With this system, the spacecraft can take us to Mars on the order of missions. 3. You can choose three options on the order of your preference.

Hey can you help me understand these two sentences?? 1. I don't see a future for this job. 2. I don't see a future with this job. I guess both of them are grammatically correct but there's a subtle difference between them. I think the first one means this line of work has no future even if you change your company and the second one, I think it means I don't see a future for myself if I keep working at this company but I might have a bright future if I change my company. I could be wrong so please correct me if I am.

Hi friends, I would like to know if the meaning of the sentence will change if I position the adverb differently in the sentence. I think different adverb positioning can change the meaning of a sentence. Just not in this case though (just my personal opinion). 1. A. This is entirely not a bad thing. B. This is not entirely a bad thing. C. This is not an entirely bad thing.
