Happy New Year. I wish you all will have a great 2006!!
I have a question.
May I say "You can die before you are old" instead of "We can die before we are old"?
What is the difference between "You can die before you are old" and "We can die before we are old"? Which one is commonly used and why?
Thank you. |

Hi, Sublime
If I were you, I would say " People could die before they are old."
"You can die before you are old." sounds like you are telling the person you are talking to that he or she can die young.
It's just my humble opinion. Please correct me if I was wrong. |
