La traduzione, come metodo di esercizio nell’apprendimento di una lingua, farà sicuramente parte della vecchia scuola, però, inserita in un contesto più vario di apprendimento, soprattutto con feedback in tempo reale, può sempre essere un utile esercizio di allenamento.
Consiglio una partecipazione attiva e visibile postando la tua versione tra i commenti in fondo a questa pagina. In questo modo riceverai un mio commento o suggerimento in tempo più o meno reale. Ma per chi non se la sente, si può semplicemente annotare la propria versione e controllarla attraverso i miei commenti lasciati per gli altri.
Ecco la nuova frase:
Perché Bob non li rispedisce semplicemente al sito web dal quale li ha acquistati?
Buon divertimento!

Good evening prof,
Why doesn’t Bob simply send them back to the web site he got them from?

Nice one, Roby. Well done.
You could use “just” instead of “simply” for a smoother flow. 😉

Very good, Manu, but the question should be negative: “Why doesn’t Bob…”
The rest is perfect. 🙂

A few imprecisions here, Luca:
1) Bob doesn’t ❎ doesn’t Bob ✅
2) “send” what?
3) “it”?

That’s much better now, Luca.
Bear in mind that there was an opportunity here for a dangling preposition at the end (senza “where” e con “from” alla fine).

Nadia, you’ve put “from” at the end which is a good sign, but when you use this construction, you need to remove the relative pronoun completely, in this case “whom” (al massimo si potrebbe mettere “that”, ma non serve).
Also, in the same way that “send” requires an object pronoun (them), so does “bought”!
Try again. 🙂

Very good, Filippo (“website” needs a definite article though!)
Have a look at my “dangling prepositions” article, which I’ve posted in some of the other comments here, to see another way of finishing the sentence.

Your version is grammatically correct, Dino, but you’re missing the concept of the dangling preposition. Have a look at this article and then try again:

That’s much better at the end now, Dino, but why did you change the beginning?

I changed the beginning…. perhaps because I interpreted the action as if he had already been able to do it????

I’m not sure what you mean, Dino, but the “perché non” formula to suggest a course of action is always present simple in English as it is in Italian.

A few problems here, Luigi:
1) no need for the future at the beginning.
2) “simply” should go before the main verb.
3) you should move “from” to the end of the sentence (like “Where do you come from?”)

Ok. Thank you. The position of some words in the sentence….is a problem. I will resolve it!

A good effort, Dani. Just one small point: web ❎ website ✅
I think it would be more typical to use “bought” rather then “purchased”. 😉

Good morning prof.
Why doesn’t Bob send black them simply to website he bought them?

Your version is a bit approximate, Liliana.
1) “simply” (oppure “just”) should go before the main verb.
2) “them” should go between the verb and the preposition.
3) “website” needs a definite article
4) you need “from” at the end (dal quale).
Try again 🙂

Look again at points 2) and 4), Liliana.
“them” needs to go between “send” and “back” (not “black”).

Well, actually, I think it’s six of one and half a dozen of the other. I hadn’t anticipated your version, but it’s perfectly all right and equally typical.
Rachele’s version is good for practising your dangling prepositions though! 😉
