I feel sorry for my pregnant sister. I still can hear her husband snoring like thundering from a bath room and a bedroom distance. Does this sound natural?
- English (US)
A little unnatural
The first sentence is fine, but the second needs work. The last part doesn't make sense.
- English (US)
A little unnatural
I agree that the first sentence sounds ok. For the second one maybe "I can still hear her husband snoring like thunder even though there is a bathroom and bedroom between us."
- English (US)
A little unnatural
Or perhaps try:
I still can hear her husband snoring like thunder all the way from the bathroom.
I can still hear her husband snoring like a chainsaw all the way from the other bedroom.
(Why like a chainsaw? No idea, but I hear that a fair amount to describe snoring... go figure.)
