Day 5 I became shy....

Today, I studied the use of "since" in the morning class.

A sentence that was discussed is as follows:

 

"It is ten years since I touched a law book."

One student asked, "Why can't I say, 'It has been ten years...?'"

Another student said, "Touching a law book indicates a specific point in the past. When I use 'has been,' the action should be continuous from the past."

The teacher agreed with this explanation.

Additionally, I deepened my understanding of grammer.

 

While I spent meaningful time, I am reflecting on my hesitation to assert myself during the class.

When I am exhausted and lacking energy, I tend to become passive.

 

I tell me again, "Let's try anyway.", "Don't be shy."

 

Thank you.
