Ask questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful.

Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.


To see translations of some frequently used phrases and sentences in other languages see Languages

King Reza: "It's a new action movie that is set in ancient China. Michelle Yeoh is in it."
"is set" in this instance ....
"being set" was your 1st example. "Hi. Is there any difference between a movie's being set in China and it's taking place in China?"

Subiectul: Re:
Pedro Martínez: tell that to Hollywood
"set" would be where a movie is actually filmed. "taking place" would be where the movies story line occurred.
