Iam looking more of the perspective of when each of (twice,doubled,two times) will be correct as well as in correct to use....

Isnt twice an adverb??Jim@Grockit wrote:TWICE and DOUBLE as adjectives mean the same thing. DOUBLE is also a verb, though, so My income doubled is more concise than My income is twice what it was.
Ugh! Yes it is! Careless mistake. You'll have to take my word for it that I know better. The split is still the same -- DOUBLE is a verb and is more concise than a sentence with TWICE.HSPA wrote:Isnt twice an adverb??Jim@Grockit wrote:TWICE and DOUBLE as adjectives mean the same thing.
