Would you correct my English? ( Aug. 26 )
Hello. I wrote two dialogues. Will you correct them?
No. 1
M: We've been waiting for you. Did you forget what time the movie
would [ will ] begin?
F: I'm sorry to be late. I got tied up in traffic due to [ because of ]
an accident.
M: Anyway let me get you a drink.
No. 2
M: Let's take a taxi to the station. That's [ It's ] more convenient than
getting on a train.
F: But I think the subway's quicker since the heavy rain will fall.
M: Mmm... You have a point there.
Thank you. kenta

Hi, No. 1 M: We've been waiting for you. Did you forget what time the movie would [ will ] begin?
- Hi, No.
- 1 M: We've been waiting for you.
- Did you forget what time the movie would [ will ] begin?
- It's a noun clause so it depends on the direct question whether it was"What time will the movie start?
- "so both of them can be correct but according to the first sentence(present perfect continuous ),it indicates that they are still waiting so there will be a film in the future.
