1.I wrote some letters at his dictation.
2.I wrote some letters at the dictation of him.
3.I have to do my assignment at his dictation. |
1.Is #1 the same meaning as #2?
2.Then, does it mean that I wrote some letters according to his order?
3.I made up #3. Does it make sense?
Thanks. |

1. is correct.
2. Is incorrect.
3. Makes sense.
If you take dictation, you write down the exact words that the person says out loud. |
