You or Your?

[cleung]

Which one of the following two is correct, please? (I'd guess #2 is correct.)

1) Your father told me about you buying a new house in China.

2) Your father told me about your buying a new house in China.

[Nikole]

Yes,you're right! The second is correct

[matilda]

the second one is BETTER than the first one. but you'd better say:
your father told me about your new house in china.
or:
your father told that you've bought a new house in china.

Hello everyone,

The sentence could also mean like this:

- Your father told me about your plans of buying a new house in China.

This is only correct if the house in the sentence has not been bought yet. Am I correct?

[Fazzu]

Yes Hlbert, you are correct.

Which one of the following two is correct, please? (I'd guess #2 is correct.)

1) Your father told me about you buying a new house in China.

2) Your father told me about your buying a new house in China.

I think the first sentence is more sensible.For the second one,you may use Matilda's examples, or you may say, "Your father told me that you are going to buy a new house in China".
