| Would you help me to understand this sentence? #1 Scolded by her father, Yuki got angry and went out of the room. Which meaning is appropriate? #2 Because Yuki was scolded by her father she got angry and went out of the room. #3 When Yuki was scolded by her father she got angry and went out of the room. Does #1 have another meaning? Or can #1 be read in many ways in some contexts? Thank you. |

| Both can be used. This simply means: Yuki to angry when her father scolded her and so she left the room. #2 Because Yuki was scolded by her father she got angry and went out of the room.-- this sentence answers the question "why did Yuki leave the room?" #3 When Yuki was scolded by her father she got angry and went out of the room.-- This sentence answers the question-- When did YUki leave the room? Hope this clarifies. |
