OpenStudy (xx_gamergirl_xx):

which do you think it is?

OpenStudy (owllover101):

A?

OpenStudy (owllover101):

am i right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To lie is to make false statements, and I think "lying" is incorrect. I believe A is correct.

OpenStudy (xx_gamergirl_xx):

yup i think you are correct! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

remember that lay is transitive (i.e., it has an object) and lie intransitive (it doesn’t have an object)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

"To lay down" or "laying down"

OpenStudy (owllover101):
