✦ Synopsis

By means of a classical inequality and an averaging technique, we obtain an oscillation criterion for nonhomogeneous half-linear differential equations. Our result is much more general than a recent result of Wong [1] and makes use of the oscillatory behavior of the forcing terms on intervals.
