When someone says “I had to do 3 lessons today”, without any context, do you assume he had to take 3 lessons or had to teach 3 lessons?
- English (US)
- Simplified Chinese (China) Near fluent
Personally, I assumed the person had to teach 3 lessons. If I were to take 3 lessons, I would use "take" or "go to" or "attend".

If the speaker is a teacher, I'll assume that he/she had to teach. But if the speaker is not or if I don't know if he/she is a teacher or not, I'll assume that he/she had to take lessons. I hope you get my point. がんばって ( ´∀`)
