Question

Hi,

Let's say someone said: Me friends have been avoiding me since (doesn't matter)

And after some time when I want to ask a question about that situation, how should it be?

Have your friends still been avoiding you? or Are your friends still avoiding you?

Anyone?

  • Dusan Stojilkovic Hi, Let's say someone said ' M y friends have been avoiding me since......
  • ' And after some time when I want to ask a question about that situation, what should ( it be )(I say) ?
  • Have your friends still been avoiding you?
  • Are your friends still avoiding you?
  • Both are grammatically correct, but I would only use the second one.

And what about this one. I think it's correct.

Had you been ignoring all those thoughts for two weeks, before it disappeared?
