[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please help me understand this one: DH drops “with” from phrases like “I’m done dinner” or “I’m done work”[/quote]I haven’t heard this one before. Where’s the linguist? Come back! I need to know![/quote] I’m not a linguist but I’ve noticed this is something that many (all?) Canadians do.[/quote] Some verbs, in other languages, would translate such that you dont need this helper preposition. "Ich suche ein Ei" means "I am looking for an egg." "Looking for" not "suchen für" Done with seems equally redundant. [/quote]
