: what a silly mistake you taking
: 這是我朋友跟我講的一句英文~~
: 但是我絕得這句英文很怪~~
: 我認為起碼you takeing 之間少一個BE動詞
: 但他回我說 taking是動名詞~
: 但是依照我的觀念 動名詞不是通常都放在句首嗎??
: 我文法不好 請各位幫我看看這個
Yes, your grammar is very good.
The word "taking" is not a gerund (動名詞) in this "sentence".
Your friend was trying to make either
a present progressive (現在進行式)
or a past progressive sentence.
It's hard to tell,
because actually, it is not even a sentence.
Every sentence must have a verb, and this one does not have it.
The missing verb should either be "are" or "were."
What a silly mistake you ARE taking. (present progressive)
What a silly mistake you WERE taking. (past progressive)
And then you are right again.
This sentence is weird because
people don't TAKE a mistake, they MAKE a mistake.
Tell your friend that he/she made a mistake,
but don't use the word "silly" because you are a polite person.
Cheers ^^
