Need your help

Post by Stanislav »

Hi all. I need your help in the following question.
There is the sentence "We live in an age wherein vice is very general, and virtue very particular". Is it right? Or "We are live in..."
When do I use are in similar sentences?
Thank you.

This sentence is right, and it is really a good sentence. Everyone should feel something from it.
By the way, "We are living in ..." is the right way.

Thank you, for your quick reply. Yes you are right, the sentence is good. However, what difference between these two sentences? "We live", and "We are living"?

Pls pay attention to blow two sentences. I hope they will make sense.
