worth

[bieasy]

Hi,

Do you say:

Life is worth to be lived / The spectacle is worth being seen / It was worth doing it /

Can you correct me please?

Hi, Bieasy,

'Life is worth living.'

'The spectacle is worth seeing.'

'It was worth doing.'

Hi, Bieasy,

'Life is worth living.'

'The spectacle is worth seeing.'

'It was worth doing.'

Rover

Thanks. But why do I hear 'was it worth it?' They use twice the pronoun 'it'. Isn't it redundant?

No, it is not redundant.

"The spectacle was worth seeing."
"It was worth it."
It(1) = the spectacle.
it(2) = seeing.
