Hello,

Could you tell me, please, if I can transform the sentences below in this way:

1.

Initially he found it difficult to get his business going, but .....
transformed:
Initially he found it difficult to set his business going, but ...

2.
original:
Lucy was in no way bothered by the loud music coming from her neighbour's house.
transformed:
Lucy was bothered in no way by the loud music coming from her .......


Thanks

In the first, I wouldn't use 'set his business going', you could use 'set up', but that does change the meaning a little.

The second is OK, though it sounds a bit strained to me. You could start 'In no way was Lucy bothered...', which shows off a bit with some inversion.

In my opinion, you can use the structure "to set something v-ing" but it means you start doing something. For example: "You're the one who set the ball rolling". Meanwhile "to get something v-ing" means you keep something working..
