Greetings!
An example from thefreedictionary.com:
(1) The child was penalized for her untidy handwriting.
My variant:
(2) The child was punished for her untidy handwriting.
What's the difference between (1) & (2)?
Thanks!
Updated: Also, according to the rules of this forum, I must say that I've asked this question on another forum as well (the link if you want to take a look). Note from mod: The "Updated" section was added by the OP after several responses had already been added.
