Hi,

'Noisy sounds' seems a little redundant, since a sound is a noise.It's better to say something like 'by making loud sounds'.

I recommend simply 'by being noisy'.

what is the difference between Beer <img src=" src="/emoticons/emotion-22.gif"> and Coffee <img src=" src="/emoticons/emotion-44.gif">?

One is a glass of beer, one is a cup of tea or coffee.

"being" from your sentence, i understand that you can be noisy but you a man, ????

i still doubt

Hi,

"being" from your sentence, i understand that you can be noisy but you a man, ????

In my sentence in red, 'being' is not a noun meaning 'a human creature'. Instead, it is a gerund form of the verb 'be'.

eg 'being noisy in the library is forbidden'.

eg 'by being noisy in the library, you will annoy other library users.'

Best wishes, Clive
