That's the correct reasoning, Kati. The fact that you managed to work out not only the answer, but also the reason, shows just how much your English is improving.

By the way, have you noticed that Torsten has now had a chance to reply in person to your message here:

Dear Beeeneeez,

I can't do anything only repeat myself. Thank you everything!

Anyway I really like and always liked the grammar. I was very good at the grammar of my mother tongue. When I made my French intermediate exam my teacher told me " your grammar knowledge is baffling". Unfortunately since I have been learning English I think that I forgot it.In the high-school I learned Latin and I loved it,/but I forgot it also/ but it was a big help in learning the French grammar.

I learn the English Grammar also. The most difficult for me to synchronize the different times in one text. But I can mention the use of preposition also...and I have still lot of deficiencies.

I really respect Mr. Torsten and I am happy that he apprehended my problem which I pass over. I know I am due to you.

Regards:
Kati Svaby
