[اوديسا]

the first statement is the correct one the order: Subject + verb(have or has +been+verb-ing) followed by the rest of sentence ....

Exceptional work! Many, many thanks for casting light on this structure, in which I unexpectedly found nothing to knock

according to the previous grammar,the right order for the second statement is : "The family members have LONG debating the best Universities in S. Arabia" I cancelled been to get clear & obvious statement

If I am not mistaken, this kind of structure is an advanced one & it is difficult to be recognized from the first time since the meaning is the call

happy Eid

Wishing you "happy Eid Mubarak" & lots of happiness & joy

I think so

I am so thrilled once I see newcomer posted on my threads. Thanks
