engelse woorden + zinnen
 

Hallo!

Ik ben bezig met de voorbereidingen voor mijn toets van engels. Daarvoor heb ik wat Engelse woorden gekregen die ik moest vertalen en die ik in een zin moest zetten. Uit de zin moet de betekenis van het woord af te leiden zijn.
Ik ben uit de meeste wel gekomen, maar weet niet ofdat ze goed zijn!

Zou iemand ze even na willen kijken?????? (y) :)

Met een paar ben ik al gelukkig
Alvast heel erg bedankt!
