verb"to be born"and "to bear"


thien ngoc lang

Recommended Posts

could you tell me about the difference between "to be born"and "born".ex:

1.I was born in nha trang city.

2.She born me.If I write this,is it right?:hmm:

thien ngoc lang,

 

1 is correct.

 

2 should be 'she bore me'. However the use of bore in that context, athough correct, would be unusual in modern UK usage and I think you would be more likely to say 'she gave birth to me'.
