Confused by the usage "A E-mail reading"
Hello,
Days ago,I found that there was a expression like this:
---What made Mary so sad?
---The things what a E-mail reading.
This is what confuse me. "A E-mail reading",are there any expressions of "a board writing" or "a board saying"?Or just like "what a board says(writing/reading)"
How to use them?And what's the difference?
Regards.

Nicolle,

The second "phrase" makes no sense. There is no common expression like that.
What made Mary so sad?
The things that an e-mail said. (still clumsy as e-mail don't speak, but much closer than before.)

Thankyou for answering.
Then how about this expression:
--Nothing,but an E-mail ___
Is the answer the same as the first question?

Yep, it's got the same answer as the first question.
"nothing but the things an e-mail said"
The best way I can think of to word that would be, "nothing but the things someone said in an e-mail"
