Hi, thanks for your video! I have a question. When I'm referring to time periods, I can't tell when to use them as a saxon genitive and when as a compound adjective. For example, it is three days' drive to the mountains (saxon genitive) and it's getting dark and we still have a two-hour drive(compound adjective). Also, I could include A week's pay, an hour's work... Thank you!
would it be wrong if I write "it's a fifteen-minute bus ride to my office " instead of "it's a 15-minute bus ride to my office"? I thought one could write the number either in numerals or words and it would still be correct.
Hello I have a question for you. Which is the correct answer in the following sentence? I have two___holiday. I can't wait. A weeks B week's C weeks' I would be glad if you could clarify it
This is a great question. I apologize for the delay! The phrase "two weeks' holiday" would be correct. This is found in Practical English Usage by Michael Swan and on Wikipedia (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noun_adjunct). However, if it is only one week, you would say "a week's holiday." As an American English speaker, I would prefer to say "I have a two-week vacation."
@@domybarahona8985 The noun "work" is uncountable, so you should not use the indefinite article "a." You could say "It was a three-day job/project/task."
The last sentence of the Quiz has two equal answers. One of them should have an hyphen between 180 and degrees, which is the wrong one. That's the reason I got 9/10 and not 10/10.
Hi Francisco, you actually got the correct answer to that question. The correct answer was "a 180-degree view". However, you are correct, there was a mistake on the last question, "You should sleep at least ___ every night." You got 10/10 and my thanks for the correction :)
Please, can you continue your online tutorial? I am enjoying your style of teaching. I have learned a lot of your adjective topics.
Great lesson. So much to learn from you.

@@englishgrammarfocus It was a three day work.
Is this sentence grammatically correct?
