one more shout!

[navi tasan]

Is this one correct:
1-He was shouting to be let out.

Would it mean that he was shouting something like "Let me out! Let me out!", or that he was just making a disturbance to be let out (he could be shouting insults for instance or anything else)?

 

[RonBee]

That is perfectly correct. He was shouting, and what he was shouting is that he wanted to be let out.

Thanks a lot RonBee. I also have to thank those who answered my other "shouting" questions.
These were probably a far cry from being good questions!

 

[RonBee]

All your questions are good ones.

Not all of my answers are so good.

:wink:

 

[navi tasan]

Your answers are very good indeed. As for my questions, they become "bad" when I manage to confuse myself. Then even the obvious becomes problematic.
I am grateful.

 

[RonBee]

Thanks for the compliment.

I do my best.
