Hi

"While <some condition to describe a state>, I could see that that was what was in his mind."


Definitely, I like English more and more!

Could you re-write the (last part of the) phase in a more… 'sayable' form?

Why do you want to go and mess up a perfectly good sentence, Tamara?

Good morning, Amy,

I suppose I’m not the first person in your life who can successfully comprehend
and even write a lot more ('perfect' phrases ) than can pronounce.

I already said it here that when I’m trying to pronounce several short words (that, what and the like) one after another as in my example - and with normal speed - I actually sound as a natural born stutterer

... It was not a serious question. Just a… hmm...how to say it in your language?…
a cry from the depths ? heartfelt cry ? heart-cry?
Plea?
