risking your life

[navi tasan]

1-You were a hero risking your life for us.
2-You were a hero, risking your life for us.
3-Risking you life for us, you were a hero.

In which case:
a-You were a hero when you were risking your life for us.
in which:
b-You were a hero and you were risking your life for us.
and in which:
c-You were a hero because you were risking your life for us.

Gratefully,
Navi.

What do you think, Navi?

Thank you very much Bhaisahab.

This is a tough one. I think they could all have the temporal meaning (when you were risking your life for us). 1 and 2 could both have the 'and' meaning (and you were risking your life for us). I don't think 3 can have that meaning.
I think the three of them could have the because meaning as well.

So the first two have three meanings. The third one has two meaning.


Gratefully,
Navi.
