Rad by som sa spytal ci medzi horeuvedenymi prikladmi je nejaky vyznamovy rozdiel a ako je to s pouzitim(teda in/formal english). Ono cela ta konstrukcia to be + infinitiv je podla googlu vysoko pocetna. V hovorovej anglictine som sa s tymto nestretol alebo som to mozno ignoroval. Nie som si isty s prekladom tychto viet:
They were to go wherever he ordered them to go to save
souls. (Boli ochotni ist kdekolvek/Isli vsade kde im porucil..)
We are to dance to the music
(Sme stvoreni na tancovanie/Ideme tancovat…)
They were to do any work they could in their own homes.
(Urobili vsetku robotu/Boli ochotni urobit vsetku pracu…)
THANKS A LOT
