今回、日本人が苦手な「until」と「by」の違いについてのクイズを作ってみました。
- I lived in England … I was fourteen years old.
- …the time I was fifteen I had moved to America.
- I don’t think I’ll fall asleep … three.
- I think I’ll fall asleep … three.
- Wait here … I come back.
- … the time I had come back, the party was over.
- I hope to finish my work … Friday.
- I will do the work … Friday.
- I will have to work … Friday.
- I will not work … Friday.
With regard to 3 and 8 (both by and until work), is there any difference of meaning in each case? Would you elaborate on that?
どっちでもに、してほしい。
I think so too.
どちでもいい sounds natural but it looks so strange.
どっちでもいい is correct.
