Ali What were you doing?spremeni pomen konteksta?
Odgovor maternega govorca
Rebecca
Ja, tako je. Ko tukaj rečete what were you doing?, se pomen stavka spremeni! Ker, če ste godrnjavi what were you doingperson, bo to pripeljalo do situacije, ko boste godrnjavo osebo spraševali o nečem, kar se je zgodilo v preteklosti. Toda v tem videu želi godrnjavi fant vedeti, zakaj takoj sedi na klopi, zato what are you doing?pravi. Primer: What were you doing yesterday by the water? (Kaj ste včeraj počeli na robu vode?) Primer: What are you doing? You can't be in here. (Kaj počnete? ne bi smeli biti tukaj.)
