Many thanks for the comments. It would be folly to misunderstand the sentence; I believe most people (sane people, that is) don't talk to their vehicles. ;-) However, it did sound ambiguous and compelled me to post the question. English is a positional language, different from Spanish or -more...

English is not my native language so I'm not sure if the following sentence is all right. «Flight Sergeant Worthington waited for Lambert. They walked without speaking to the aeroplane.» In my humble opinion, and to my limited domain of the English language, this phrase seems to indicate...

I started reading ebooks in a Palm organizer some 10 years ago. Now I mainly use a Kindle but synch the book to my smartphone and PC as well. Whenever I have 10 free minutes and wherever I am, I reach for the phone or switch to the 'Kindle for PC' window and read a chapter. Also, it's much more...
