Dear my Teacher Paula, A happy Wednesday to you! The ink stain was washed away finally, and the condition of my hands was back to normal. However, I didn't use a brush to wash that, but I just took a shower. I thought the warm water seemed effective to get rid of that. By the way, today, our boss showed up in our office and started nagging at me in relation to our business. It is a normal situation, so I didn't think of it awkwardly. However, I heard a bad news from him that there is a possibility that the person who is supposed to share our office room together will cancel his plan. How can he reverse his decision so easily when I and our coworkers already rearranged our desks? We felt so annoyed about this possibility, but we can't know the final result for now, so we would just have to wait and see. Changing the topic, I have a question about my last composition. I am somehow curious about what is correct between 'The stain didn't wash away.' and 'The stain didn't be washed away.' As I know, the word of 'wash' is a transitive verb, so in that case, that word should be written as 'be washed' if I want to write an object as a subject. Sometimes, there are exceptions in grammar, so I am a little confused about that. Please make me understand that. ^^; Thanks in advance for your help. ^^ That is all for now and see you very soon. [이름] P.S.: Below is my homework. Read Books! Needless to say, reading books is the most important task in our lives. There is a saying that books are food for the mind. It is well known that we can learn a lot of good lessons and wisdom from books. However, nowadays, people have no enough time to read books due to their business. In addition, there are many things that attract people's mind, such as games and TV programs. In my case, I also read only one book in a month, and I think it is not enough to make my knowledge grow more. I should reflect on myself instead of making an excuse for not reading many books due to my busyness.

Dear my Student [이름],

 

Happy Wednesday! ^.^

 

I am glad that you already removed the stain from the ink that stayed in your hand since yesterday.

You did a great job removing it.

I think you are right about the effectiveness of warm water to remove stains.

 

By the way, I am happy to hear that you were okay with what your boss just did to you at work.

 

Well, about your question, WASH is a verb, it can be a transitive and an intransitive verb.

THE STAIN DIDN\'T WASH AWAY is correct.

While THE STAIN DIDN\'T BE WASHED AWAY is wrong.

Always remember the pattern DIDN\'T + BASE-VERB.

I hope I answered your question properly.

 

Anyway, thank you making your composition! ^^

Happy reading! ^^,

See you tomorrow! ^^.

 

... Teacher Paula ... ^.~
