She does homework every day vs She does her homework every day vs She does the homework every day

Can I use the first example?

She does homework every day She does her homework every day She does the homework every day

Or is the object her required?

• 1 This is actually a good question (+1) though it seems pretty simple. As I think many examples, the pronouns before the word seem to be quite natural (and so mandatory?). –  Maulik V Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 11:21
• Something to think about (I think these examples may help you to think of your example sentences differently because you may have acquired homework when you were younger and may conceptualize it more or less the way you conceptualize it in your first language, which may be the cause of your confusion): I drink water every day. I drink my water every day. I think the water every day. –  Damkerng T. Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 13:50

All your examples are grammatically correct.

I haven't collected statistics but I'd guess "her homework" is most commonly used. You could certainly say that "her" is not required, as the reader is unlikely to suppose that she does someone else's homework.

I have an intuitive feel that "she does homework every day" sounds like it's saying that she has a lot of homework, that the emphasis is on the idea that she's doing it every day. But "she does her homework every day" sounds more like it's emphasizing that she is living up to her responsibilities. But I'd be hard-pressed to give a logical argument for that interpretation. Maybe "her" makes it more personal, she's doing the homework assigned to her? While simply "homework" puts the emphasis on the work itself?

"The homework" would indicate that it is some specific homework. You wouldn't use it to refer to homework in general. Like you mean say, "She does the homework from her biology class". Or, "Did you do the homework the teacher assigned yesterday?" But you wouldn't say, "She does the homework every day" to refer to doing homework in general.

• Thank you. But what if the sentences are in Present Continuous so it wouldn't be general. What if mum asks a child, for example: Mary, what are you doing? Mary: I'm doing homework. Mary: I'm doing my homework. Mary: I'm doing the homework. Are all sentences correct? –  masterkomp Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 14:12
• 10 @masterkomp The first two would be correct and mean pretty much the same thing. "The homework" would be very unlikely, unless some specific homework had previously ben discussed. –  Jay Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 14:46
• I think this answer completely nailed it. –  shawnt00 Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 19:26
• I respectfully disagree about “the homework”; it makes sense if she's in a class that assigns a predictable dose of homework every day. –  Anton Sherwood Commented Aug 23, 2016 at 10:02
• @AntonSherwood But then you'd be talking about specific homework and not general homework, the homework for that one class. –  Jay Commented Aug 23, 2016 at 13:18

or is the object her required?

I wouldn't call her an object, but rather a pronoun that modifies the object homework . It's not required for grammatical correctness, but in practice the version with the pronoun has a connotation of all of the subject's homework, while the version without is more indefinite.

She does homework every day.

At least in American usage, one would generally take this to mean that she spends time working on homework, but doesn't necessarily complete all the work.

She does her homework every day.

This generally means that she does all the homework assigned to her, or at least everything she needs to have done for the next day. The possessive pronoun "her" specifies which homework you're talking about, and the implication is that you mean all of it. If your mother asks you if you've done your homework and you say "yes," you'll be in trouble if she finds out later that you only completed half of it.

She does the homework every day.

The article the here makes this version relate to some specific homework, like that for a specific class. For example: She succeeds in math class because she does the homework every day.

It's worth pointing out that doing your homework often relates to being prepared even for people who aren't students, and in that case you generally mean that the subject is (or isn't) fully prepared, so the possessive pronoun is often used, or an adjective is used to clarify the meaning. Some examples:

To avoid losing money, do your homework before investing in a new company.

She knew he was lying because she did her homework before the deposition.

Do some homework before buying a house: check prices of recent sales, school quality, etc.

They have different meanings.

This means that every day she does at least some homework. It neither says nor implies that she completes her homework (because it doesn't specify what homework it's talking about). It's also perfectly consistent with her doing other people's homework. (For example, she might be a nanny who, among other tasks, helps with homework every day.)

This means she does the homework that has been assigned to her, as opposed to doing other people's homework or helping others with their homework. It also strongly implies that she completes her assignments, and doesn't just work on them for a bit. (Because "does" implies completing and "her homework" implies all of her homework.)

This means there's some homework that both the speaker and listener are referring to, and she does that particular homework. For example, "Mary is assigned math homework regularly. She does the homework every day." Which would mean she does that math homework. It would be confusing to use this when the listener would not know what homework you are talking about.

They are all correct but can create slightly different implications. Some examples:

She does homework every day, can't the teacher give them a break?

She does her homework every day, she's such a great student.

She does the homework every day while her sister writes the book reports.

• What if mum asks a child, for example: Mary, what are you doing? Mary: I'm doing homework. Mary: I'm doing my homework. Mary: I'm doing the homework. Are all sentences correct? –  masterkomp Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 13:47
• Sure, Mary's answer is fine. –  DTRT Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 13:48
• Are all sentences correct? Is there any difference between these sentences, especially between two first sentences? I mean Mary's sentences. –  masterkomp Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 13:50
• Sorry, I don't understand the question. My answer is about the differences. –  DTRT Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 13:51
• I'm asking about my sentences about Mary :) –  masterkomp Commented Aug 22, 2016 at 13:53

Both sentences are correct, I personally like more the first one "She does homework everyday" - the shorter the better. Nonetheless if what you are looking for is to be more precise, the second one would be more detailed but in any case both are clear.

My GF[18] constantly asking me[18] to do her homework, essay, power point,…

We been dating for 5 months and last month, I was bored and told her if she need any help with her university work she can ask me. Since then, I been writing her essay, doing her homework, and presentation. This not only waste my time because I am in Uni as well and its a higher rank Uni therefore I got tons of work to do and making me stress. Doing her work is easy but she always leave her Uni work until the deadline almost come and ask me to do it or do it with her. With limited of time and she kept getting mad at me because she does not like the way I do it or just simply she doesn’t know how to use the computer. Since I dont want to argue, I just simply shut up and listen to her yelling at me. This not only kill most of time because I cant study and do my work and also making us angry at each other. I know I should I talk to her about this but I know she will upset because of this.

TLTR: My Gf constantly asking me do her Uni work or work with her on her work then constantly get mad at me because she does not like the way I do it or just because she stress since she always leave her work until the deadline about to come.

Asking Eric: Would it be snobbish, or helpful to correct my girlfriend when she says a word incorrectly?

• Published: Aug. 24, 2024, 11:00 a.m.

The Asking Eric advice column is written by R. Eric Thomas. Tribune Content Agency

• R. Eric Thomas

Dear Eric: I started a new relationship a couple years ago that has recently grown serious. I really love my girlfriend, and she is so sweet and kind. In fact, everybody loves her. The issue is that nearly every day, she mispronounces a word or uses one incorrectly. Sometimes cringingly so.

I am fortunate to be highly educated with a professional job and to have come from a family that valued speaking properly. She has limited education beyond high school, was married young and has established herself in a trade where she works for herself. I am very proud of her. However, I never know whether to correct her, if so, how often, or if I should just get over it. I think I personally would like to be gently corrected in private (e.g., by explaining the word’s origins and proper usage, etc.). Snobbish or helpful?

– Wordsmith

Dear Wordsmith: Ah, yes, you’re having a “My Fair Lady” problem. In the classic musical Henry Higgins, an erudite professor of phonetics, meets Eliza Doolittle, a Cockney flower girl, and attempts to teach her how to speak “properly” as a bet with a friend, falling in love with her and her vivid style of communicating along the way.

The question here is sometimes the same as the question in “My Fair Lady”: does she want your help?

So, ask her, privately, the next time it happens. “You said [X], but it’s usually pronounced [Y]; is it helpful for me to point that out or would that annoy you?” Then do what she asks. If you’re the only one who is cringing, then it’s not a problem for both of you and correction is going to chafe her. Language is fluid; the most important thing is that you understand each other, both in what you’re saying and what you’re doing.

Stories by R. Eric Thomas

• Asking Eric: Should I tell my husband his new meds have given him breasts?
• Asking Eric: Friends play back-seat financial advisor when 5 of 6 siblings decide to sell beach house
• Asking Eric: My dad gave my friend a lot of money to pay her back rent. Now she's ghosting us

Dear Eric: I really enjoy reading advice columns, and I see a lot of older folks frustrated that they don’t get thanked for gifts to their young relatives. Without meaning to appear ungrateful, I believe there is a generational gap here that isn’t being addressed.

I’m in my 30s. When I get a thank you note from a gift or a dinner invitation, I’m always surprised. It seems so formal! And unnecessary.

– No Thanks Needed

Dear Thanks: This issue does come up a lot, you’re right. And there’s definitely cultural and generational gaps but I don’t think there’s a one-size-fits-all explanation. You say that you have friends who send thank you notes. Maybe they enjoy it!

Your closing thought really hits it, though: we just have to say what we need.
