About the Use of \'There\'
학생이 쓴 원문
Among the contents of the class on January 6, there is a question you asked me.
Please explain the use of \'there\' in this sentence.
\"Is your granddaughter still there at your house?\"
Yesterday, I blew out a candle in class, not a \'candle light,\' but just a \'candle.\'
I want to know if \'candle\' means candle light.
I blew the candle on my cake, and they sang a happy birthday song.
HOMEWORK FOR THE DAY:
Have you heard the news about Australia? What solution would you like to suggest to end the devastation happening there?
--> I think the solution to end the forest fire disaster in Australia now is that people all over the world should feel the importance of global warming and actively participate in environmental protection.

Hi, John. ^^
In the question, \"Is your granddaughter still there at your house?\"
\'There\' means is she physically present at your house.
In the statement, \"I blew the candle on my cake, and they sang a happy birthday song.\"
It is implied that it was the candle\'s light you blew out because a candle\'s purpose is to be lit and in this case, be blown out.
But if you are more comfortable with using \"candle light\", we can say \"I blew out the candle light on my cake, and they sang a happy birthday song.\"
See you in class! ^^
