[vil]

Dear teachers,

Would you be kind enough verify the following paraphrasing of the next three sentences?

1.1. The permit entitled Gregory to carry a weapon.
1.2. The permit gave Gregory the right to carry a weapon.

2.1. He is not entitled to such privileges.
2.2. He has no right to such privileges.

3.1. He is entitled to this honour.
3.2. He has some right to this honour.
3.3. He deserves this honour.

Thanks for your efforts.

Regards.

I'm not a teacher.

3.1. He is entitled to this honour.
3.2. He has some right to this honour.

I don't think the sentences sound right.
Only 3.3 is correct.

Hi,
The only thing I will say is that 3.2 is much more equivocal than the other two, indicating that, while he has some right to the honour, he may not be absolutely deserving of it.
