How to Use "From" in a Sentence?
Ulwa needs your help using "from" in sentences.
For example, one of the tasks asks to explain the difference in meaning between sentences like "She learned from her mistakes" and "This gift is from my grandma."

I can help with that! Here's how to explain the difference between those sentences:

  1. "She learned from her mistakes":
    In this sentence, "from" indicates a source of experience or knowledge. It means that her mistakes were the reason or cause for her learning.
  2. "This gift is from my grandma":
    Here, "from" specifies the origin or giver of the gift. It shows who provided the gift.

You can highlight that "from" can be used to show the source of something, whether it's an experience, a lesson, or a tangible object. Let me know if Ulwa needs more examples! 😊
