I'll get my staff to make a note of that.

Make sure they write the whole note, and not just a half or quarter of it.

Sorry, I didn't mean to harp about your staff, I should give it a rest.

I noticed it right away, not in the least because your entire post is a bit
out of the ordinary...
The survey does ring a bell though.
I was gong to answer it, but they already closed it.
I fiddled around on the website instead.
Still a fun fact, I take my hi-hat off for you

Thanks - fixed.
I keep a file of these (so I have one on short notice if I'm busy) but paste auto "C#"-ed it and I didn't notice.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

I believe this was the best of fife surveys. They just couldn't trumpet!

That is only trumpet by the silly things you read when you read too quickly and only register the first and the last letter of a word.

I hate to harp on your thoughts, again . . . but they manage to snare my attention. Perhaps this is how you castanet for attention?

I have a feeling you've orchestrated this.
Perhaps I coda noted this measure earlier?

I certainly didn't mean to cause any treble, it's not like I'm throwing anyone off a clef.

Barring any obstacles, I'd like to somehow even the score.

Perhaps you create a team, and staff it with people where 'evening the score' is thier forte.

As a non-native English speaker I am proof reading a document from a colleague. I could use a bit of advice from some fellow Loungers:
Assume a model that can be described by the following paths /A/B/C and /A/B/D.
I do not think that is grammatically correct.
Assume that we have a model that can be described by the following paths /A/B/C and /A/B/D.
May be proper English, but unbearable to read when repeated in several paragraphs.
So I came up with:
We have a model with the paths /A/B/C and /A/B/D.
Which did not draw cheers from the crowd. The use of "we" was frowned upon. I have to admit it does feel a tad unscientific.
I dunno what to do. Perhaps:
There is a model with the paths /A/B/C and /A/B/D.
The phrase "Given a model ..." would be nice but seems to require a subordinate clause[^]
I am grateful for any suggestion. If you visit Stockholm I owe you a
Thanks!
[EDIT:] Thanks to all, and especially to Bill W & phil.o for great suggestions and explanations.

"To assume" is a direct-transitive verb, so I think the expression "Assume a model that can..." (the first one) is perfectly valid.

Thanks for teaching me that!
