The first one makes no sense, and the second is not that much better. Just what are you trying to say? _________________ If you need me, I'm here. |

sorry, my bad english always makes people speechless
I actually want to ask one of my friends to say it the way my other friends said it (in fact i'm not sure whether you can understand this sentence ) |

Thank you very much, Alan 
but I still have 2 questions!
No.1 what gets me now is whether i can place 'in' in front of 'the same way' or not? if not, why?
No.2 as for the 2nd sentence in the 1st post, if I change "said" with "did", aka, "you can say this in the same way as your fellow did". Does it make sense for native speakers? if not, why? |

Hi dear Alan, have you ever thought in giving us some english word roots, and structure, or send monthly in your newsletter, or even better to open a space in the site so we could check it out once in awhile. how about that ? or to make you work just once, suggest sites you trust and post them to us. does this one sounds better ? _________________ Joao Mª H.
