Pucca's expressions - I understood it now

0 Hi,02br
00sometimes I see Pucca use expressions like:02br
02br
01b00Thank you! I understood it now!02br
00Thank you! I understood now!02b
02br
02br
00Or something like that. I wonder if those kinds of expressions are acceptable in English. I tend to use similar structures... I think we Italians express that the same way as Spanish people.02br
00Thanks 05002br
02br
00PS: Ana, sorry for stealing your sentences... those are not copyrighted, are they? It's just that I saw you use those on more than one occasion, and I'd like to hear an opinion about that. 051010id111id1

0 I agree with Clive -- since "understood" is past tense, it seems strange to use "now" with it. I understood it yesterday. I understand it now. 0-

0 Hello all:),02br
02br
00But you can't understand in a moment, can you? I mean that if you understand, that process of understanding started time ago and ended when you understood. If you understand something, means that the process finished, and if it has finised, why shouldn't it be in the past?02br

00Am I mixing things?:P 0-
