Tense Question
Little help, please.
Is it:
"...where Ben had laid out some cards on the desk."
or:
"...where Ben had lain out some cards on the desk."
?
I've used the former, but I'm not certain about it...
There are two verbs - to lay and to lie...
It goes:
Lay Lay Laid
Lie Lay Lain
So the answer is, um... 'laid' methinks
Well that's less straightforward than I'd hoped. I'm going with Laid. Thanks Ferg.
