Default Re: Three Questions

Thank you very much, Teia.

I would like to ask native speakers of English.
#2 "Will you stop where those two steps are?" the boy asked. He run up the steps.
First I think at the place is omitted in the front of where. I mean “Will you stop at the place where those two steps are? Does it often happen? Second, what is “two steps?” Is it a stairs that consists of two footsteps? How do you count a stairs? You don’t count the floor(ground)? and first step, second step and when you reach the entrance floor, you don’t count the floor? Is it like this? http://www.sapporo-heavenstudio.com/blues/bluesimage/bobby2.jpg
