In the first question the statement is, "I'm freezing."  It indicates nothing about how the other party is dressed or if the other party is cold, warm, or sizzling.  Is the answer portion of the question meant to have started with "I," rather than "You"? I should have, I needn't have... etc. etc.

 

It makes no sense to me, someone often colder than those around me, to assume my coldness means other people should dress more warmly.  Unless I am hoping that I can ask to wear discarded items of clothing (scarves and sweaters and such). 

Not trying to be jerky, honestly.  Just curious.

Hi Linda,


I am not sure I understand your comment correctly. Would #1 make more sense to you if I made it more clear it's a dialogue? (Like #2, 4, 5 and 6).
Let's look at it this way:


Jane:
      'I am freezing."
Laura:
    'You ____ more warmly."


Does this help?
