Pagsusuri ayon sa wika
Sa iyong wika
Experiences often use verb-specific patterns, prepositions, or attached pronouns rather than a simple English-style subject.
يعجبني هذا الفيلم.
Pleases-me this film.
Sa wikang pinag-aaralan
Experiences often use possessive/dative-like patterns rather than an English-style actor subject.
আমার ঠান্ডা লাগছে।
To me cold is-feeling.
Learners may translate “I feel cold” too directly and choose the wrong pattern.
