    ‰δέŠΕ书. I'm reading.
    I think "‰δέ––’nŠw’†•Ά" would be better.
    I thought that might be the case, but I've only seen it next to the verb from what I can remember, so I went with that. ŽΣŽΣ你Cquiet sunshine¬ˆ·!

    Hm, we did exercises like extending or contracting sentences when we were kids, I think it's a useful way to make sentence structure more clear.
    ‰δέŠw’†•Ά==>‰δέ<––’n>Šw’†•Ά
    ‰δέŠΕ书===>‰δέ<认^’n>ŠΕ书

    Lexico san, this sentence has a small problem.
    ‰δ—vΔŠw’†•Ά,or ‰δ现έ—vΔŠw’†•Ά is ok.
    Your grammar knowledge is richer than mine, so I'm sure I don't need to struggle to use my poor English here.

    Thanks for all the learning you give me. Some things I never got right, so I'm glad I get those corrected now, not never.
