Hi, something is bugging me since yesterday and I can't get a proper answer so maybe someone here can help me.
One of my Kids wrote
"I need water to drin.
I need air to breath."
Which should be okay but the other teacher said it was bad because of the repetitive use of "I need" so she changed it to this :
"I need to drink water and air to breath"
I walked up to her and asked her if she maybe did a mistake there as this doesn't sound right to me ... she got angry and told me that it is grammatically correct.
She even tried to exlain me but I didn't understand it and still think that this sounds so bad ^^V
for me it sounds like I need to drink "water and air" no matter if the breathing follows up or not.
