Can I ... ?

Topic: Grammar

Author: Lesmundo2003

Lesson

A common mistake that even English people make is:


"Can I borrow your pen?"

"Can you show me the way to the bus stop?"

"Can I do this, in this way?"


3 Sentences - only 1 is wrong.


Let's see how you get on  :-)

Answers with your reasons please.


Will tell you the correct answer later.

With explanation & 'congrats' to those of you that are right.


Happy Holidays
