Toy was possessed

[tufguy]

"He was or that toy was bewitched or possessed but now he or that toy is alright that thing has gone out of him or that toy".

Please check.

It's a complete mess. Start again. You have posted one long sentence, enclosed in one set of quotation marks. It doesn't make sense. I can only assume that each time you have written "or", you are asking us to choose between words or phrases. You have been told before that you need to make those words and phrases clear by enclosing them in their own quotation marks.

Perhaps or maybe he or tufguy needs or has to be told or reminded in terms or language that or which he understands or comprehends.

Well, either he was possessed or the toy was. But they're both better now.

"He was possessed but now he is alright and that thing has gone out of him".

Please check.

It's still very wordy and you need to choose between "bewitched" and "possessed". They don't mean the same thing. Also, please clarify what "that thing" is.

Obviously that thing is either ghost or a demon.

It was not obvious or ems would not have asked you to clarify the point.

Note that using the word 'obviously'in a response to a question/request can appear rather dismissive.

Okay, sorry for that.

Correction TO post# 1.

"He was possessed, but now he is alright, and that thing has gone out of him".

The sentence needed two commas to separate the independent clauses.

The adjective all right is two words.

True. But "alright" is one word.

Both versions are OK.

The form alright as a one-word spelling of the phrase all right in all of its senses probably arose by analogy with such words as already and altogether. Although alright is a common spelling in written dialogue and in other types of informal writing, all right is used in more formal, edited writing.
