Hi,
The first question:
I found the definition of "engaged" from "http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/engaged",
Function: adjective
Date: 1629
1 : involved in activity : occupied, busy
In above interpretation, it described "engaged" as "involved in activity", but it also described "engaged" as "occupied, busy",
So, how to understand the meaning of "engaged" in this situation? Should we just accept the meaning of "involved in activity" or just accept the meaning of "occupied, busy"?
The second question:
And this is the definition of "account" from "account: West's Encyclopedia of American Law (Full Article) from Answers.com",
d. A customer having a business or credit relationship with a firm: salespeople visiting their accounts.
It defined the "account" as "A customer having a business or credit relationship with a firm", and it gives a sample sentence as "salespeople visiting their accounts",
So, Can I simply change the sample sentence to "salespeople visiting their whom having a business or credit relationship with a firm"?
Thanks.
