Which one is accurate?
|

Hi colleagues, I have a question, which sentence is accurate?
They are a catholic family.
OR
They are from a catholic family.
Actually I �m doing ICELT and if you are familiar with it, I �m on task LT3 error correction. Man, this is hard! I have like one hundred questions in my mind.
Wish everyone a short Friday and a long weekend!

The are both correct, but have two slightly different meanings.
To be FROM a Catholic family refers to your past and does not necessarily mean you are a practicing Catholic now. |
