Hi
When one of the tyres of my car gets punctured, which is the most natural way of saying it?
My car has a puncture. / My car tyre has a puncture. / My car is punctured. / My car tyre is punctured.
OR some other format??
My car has a puncture . Possible, though technically the car itself doesn't have a puncture. My car tyre has a puncture .
