Explain the statement: 'Not every thing that is legal, right.'
Any suggestion about explaining this statement?
Greetings!
I think you may be missing a word from the statement. I will assume it is meant to say "Not everything that is legal is right." What this means is that some things may be morally wrong, yet not punishable under the law. For example, lying to your parents about where you went last night is not illegal; most people would consider it morally wrong, however.
I hope this helps!

No...the statement is like that...

In that case, the statement does not really make grammatical sense. If you would like to give me the context of the statement, i.e., where it came from, I might be able to give you further guidance. Also, are you sure that "every thing" is supposed to be two words? That can change the meaning just slightly.
If you can give me some more information about where the statement came from and what class this is for or why you are to define it, I can perhaps give you more assistance.
