I hate it when I write in English, and it was a listening exercise. I think duo should still accept this, but maybe show a warning.
Could someone tell me please, what the difference between "blant" and "mellom" is?
as "blant" means "among" and "mellom" means "between" we can say that between is describing the situation where a person is between TWO things; among is used when you find yourself sourranded by more than two things, in my opinion
Blant: among Mellom: between
For evething I think, not "only for" or "only for animal". :)
"Among" gives a sense of anonymity - either the people you are among don't realize you are there, or you are speaking from a third party perspective ("the criminal was among the innocent victims")
"With" is the much more common usage to imply that you are in the company of others.
So definitely slightly different senses, but if I was to translate this, I would assume the second choice of "with" if I didn't have the context to tell which sense it was. :D
That is a good distinction. It works with English, but does it have the same connotation in Norwegian? Inquiring minds need to know!
