Need your help
Hi,
I wonder when someone criticizes me for helping someone too much with his homework, I feel exremely unhappy because I just want to offer helps, can I say:
Where the hell was I wrong?
I want to find a sentence expressing strong dissatisfaction towards the one who critizes me because I don't do anything wrong, is the above sentence, the red one fine?
Thanks a lot

OR...."It's none of your business".

Re: Need your help
It would be better to say this:
What did I do wrong?
This could be made more emphatic like this:
What exactly did I do wrong?
Make sure that you stress "exactly" in the sentence above.
You could also say this:
Keep your nose out.....(of my business.)
You might also use a phrase from popular culture. Hold your hand up, palm outwards and say:
Tell it to the hand coz (because) the face ain't (is not) listening. 


Hope this helps. Be careful with the last one - don't say it to a teacher

Re: Need your help
Thanks you two a lot, can you guys recommend me some sentences that include the term like "the hell" and "the heck" and so on, I like the feeling when speaking them, if no such sentences, just leave the thread alone.
Thanks
