Do they have a same meaning?
Roughly speaking, do the following four sentences have a same meaning? :roll:
1) In a private lesson, the student can learn at his/ her (own) learning pace.
2) In a private lesson, the student can tailor the class to meet his/her needs.
3) In a private lesson, the student can get his/her (own) way.
4) In a private lesson, the student can go his/her (own) way.
Re: Do they have a same meaning?
3 & 4 suggest the direction of the lesson, the topics, etc, rather than the pace, IMO. 2 suggest both pace and scope. ;-)
Re: Do they have a same meaning?
tdol, thanks.
I've thought that both 'get one's way' and 'go one's way' are about someone's pace. You cleared up my misunderstanding. Thans.
Re: Do they have a same meaning?
Get one's way- get what you want
Go your way- take your own direction
:-)
Re: Do they have a same meaning?
tdol, thank you for clearing up the difference between 'get one's way' and 'go one's way'. I've thought they have a same meaning. ;-) Thanks million!
Re: Do they have a same meaning?
You can go your own way happy in the knowledge that you know the difference now. ;-)
