intend sth. to be / intend as #1 (permalink) Sun Jul 05, 2009 20:33 pm   intend sth. to be / intend as
 

Hi there

I'm not sure about the correct use of the word intend. I want to express that a videoclip I made wasn't planned to be tutorial. So, is it possible to say:

I didn't intend this videoclip to be a tutorial
and
I didn't intend this videoclip as a tutorial.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes, you can say both. I prefer the first one, but the second one is not wrong.
