Dear Torsten,
Thank you for your lessons. Because of ones I can get to know what I need to improve in my English language.
I joyned in 2006 but I had a break, I have spent 2 years in England. Living there was helpful for me but the language which
English people speak it's not really correct so if I want to pass Toefl exam i need to learn with you.
Best regards
Peter

Hello, Mr Alan:
I did made mistake in the this sentence"to most people...they had finished with each other". I chose "ended" instead. I read your explanation, and now i understand. I joined this website before and i realised that you're a very good english teacher. I want to say may thanks to you for your contributions to all learners in the world.

dear Mister Micawber,
"Note that 'finish' can be followed by an –ing form [but 'end' is not followed by an –ing form]."
is this a wrong sentence:-"it is a good ending."

Hi Torsten,

I got 7 out of 10 on the first attempt, but afterwards I read all the explanations and I think I catched the difference but we'll see in future.

Thank you veru much for the lessons, tests and exercises.

Alan said we can use: They HVAVE ended their relationship. Why in the excercise they was follow by HAD instead HAVE? They HAD finished with......

[Edy]

they had finished with each other.

sounds awfully odd I would have thought it isn't correct. I would have said they ended their relationship or they stopped seeing each other but how can you finish with someone? I know you can finish with something like - work: "I have finished with the house work" for instance.
