question about grammar
0 I hear so many mistakes on a daily basis (I'm a teacher) that sometimes I've got the feeling I'm losing my English. 02 br

00 Is this sentence correct : "I'm writing you for getting your phone number" ? 02 br
02 br
00 Would you accept that ? 02 br

00 I thought you should rather say : "I'm writing you to get your phone number/to ask (you about) your number/ because I need your phone number / because I would like to have your number" 02 br

00 Thanks 02 br

0 No, I would not accept that. Are you teaching native English speakers? It is a mistake that my EFL students sometimes make, in translating from the grammar of their first language. 0-
