Need help with these 4 sentences please
Could you please help me with this?
1 I like leaving the TV on as background image and sound/I leave the TV on for background image.
2 You're not done until I say you are.
3 These speaker aren't on at a max. You can't turn them up a little more.
4 It took me the time it took for the opening credit to end to get back from the kitchen where I had gone to get some food.
We're partners but I have a bigger share of the company. 55 to 45.
thanks

Numbers one and two seem fine to me. 3, 4, & 5 have problems. That's my limit.

alc24 1 I like leaving the TV on as background image and sound/I leave the TV on for background image.
alc24 for the 1st would it be option 1 or 2??I think both work with no problem.
"For background" addresses the purpose for your doing it.
"As background" addresses the way you conceive/perceive its function

4. It took me the time of the opening credits to get back.... [you hadn't mentioned you were watching a film here.]
3. Two negatives that don't go together. The speakers are up at max - you can't turn them up any higher.

If it only takes you a year and a half to get intrigued, maybe we should wait a while?
