"My boyfriend hears a noise and turns".

Is this correct?

"She turns" or "She turns around".

In order to spin up.

In BrE, that hamster is "turning around", "turning round" or "turning to look at something".

cecilia, please start giving your threads more useful titles. A good title for this thread would have been My boyfriend hears a noise and turns, as this is what your question is about.

Extract from the Posting Guidelines:

'Thread titles should include all or part of the word/phrase being discussed.'

If you're talking about your boyfriend, then she does not work.
