 Is this American? "the situation invited me to do so" I have a question concerning an expression I've tried to translate from Swedish. Is this American?: "the situation invited me to do so" Example: Let's consider I receive a lot of junk email. Then I would say: The situation invited me to be very careful to which mailing list I would subscribe. Thank you |

| Re: Is this American? "the situation invited me to do so" It doesn't sound very natural to me. How about 'the situation made me...' |
