a newborn [needs] [something]
Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes confuse the noun and adjective uses. For a baby, you can say 'They have a newborn' (noun) or 'They have a newborn baby' (adjective + noun). Another mistake is writing *new-born* with a hyphen; in modern English, 'newborn' is usually written as one word.
Sinonimai
infant (Slightly more formal and often used in medical or official contexts; can also refer to babies a bit older than a newborn.)
|
new baby (Very common in everyday speech; slightly more informal and emotional than 'newborn'.)
