This was a tricky bit of grammar but I believe it's 100% correct.
- npsimons 9y agoWell, it's supposed to be "hard done by", but that doesn't make it much better. I'm personally pleased to see a more sophisticated way to phrase something, but unfortunately it's not a common idiom these days (at least state side), so it can be a little confusing.
- danellis 9y agoIn what way is it "more sophisticated"?
