Estate and a mansion
Message de oxford posté le 30-04-2009 à 15:42:59 (S | E | F)
Bonjour les amis!
i am really confused with the follwoing sentences and i hope that somebody may find me the correct answer:
- The difference between an estate and a mansion.
- Normally in a mansion we may have a little parking for cars, I’d like to know if this parking area has a special name or we just call it mansion parking area.
- What’s correct: I talk with somebody or I talk to somebody
- i feel ashamed of him or about him?
- Are these sentences correct?
- There’s no reason to get you go!
- You are a part of us, or you are a member of our family!
Thanks everybody

Hello,
- The difference between an estate and a mansion.
To me, estate = mansion + land, and mansion is the house.
- Normally in a mansion we may have a little parking for cars, I’d like to know if this parking area has a special name or we just call it mansion parking area.
I don't know, since I don't own a mansion
. I would probably call it a parking area. I wouldn't necessarily call it a "parking lot" since it evokes a large area of asphalt with yellow lines. - What’s correct: I talk with somebody or I talk to somebody
Talk to. You would speak/discuss with somebody about something. However, some people may use "talk with".
- i feel ashamed of him or about him?
Ashamed of
- Are these sentences correct?
- There’s no reason to get you to go!
- You are a part of us, or you are a member of our family!
You are one of us.
You are a member of our family.
Hope this helps!
