How to use tend in a sentence?

  1. Donald H. Rumsfeld:

    Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - - the ones we don't know we don't know. And if one looks throughout the history of our country and other free countries, it is the latter category that tend to be the difficult ones.

  2. Jeff Danielson:

    Iowa is not traditionally a large donor state, it may be the fact that she hadn't gotten around to it or people haven't really offered yet. My experience has been that the candidates tend to do more localized fundraisers and it is usually in support of the local candidate.

  3. Craig Rowley:

    Distribution centers tend to be clustered outside of major metropolitan areas, so there's fewer people to hire.

  4. Denis Nash:

    I tend not to care why people are testing, if they are doing it to be safer at a party, great. But I do care if access is inequitable.

  5. Carlotta Cardana:

    We envision this project as a celebration of Native American culture rather than portraying all the misery, there's a richness of cultural differences among the tribes. We tend to generalize and think of them as just a few tribes, but there's so much more.
