Welcome to the forum. :hi:

When is your exam? Is this question part of your exam?

Please see my corrections to your post in red. It is important to follow these rules of written English:

- Start every sentence with a capital letter.
- End every sentence with a single, appropriate punctuation mark.
- Always capitalise the word "I" (first person singular).
- Do not put a space before a full stop, comma, question mark or exclamation mark.
- Always put a space after a full stop, comma, question mark or exclamation mark.

Thanks.

Both "I answer you" and "I answer to you" are grammatically correct but they have different meanings. If you ask me a question and I respond, then "I answer you". If you are my boss and I must do everything you tell me, then "I answer to you".

Can you remember exactly what it said in your exam and can you see why your answer was wrong?

Please read the list of rules I gave you again - carefully. You failed to follow those rules four times in post #3 - I have marked the corrections in red again.
