grammar question

by Ana

Feb 3, 2012

I had to write ca dos for a lesson ad I wrote this: I can listen to a conversation about people who get to know each other and answer questions regarding detail information. I was corrected by a non native speaker for not writing detailed. Is it incorrect to write detail information instead of detailed information? I googled detail information ad I cam across a site that says: Â¨Websites That Provide Detail Information Regarding Medi-Cal ...Â¨, which makes me think detail iformation exists, but as I am not sure, I am asking you. Thamks in advance for your help. Ana

What you can say.. 1) I can listen for details. I can understand "the small things".

2) I can listen for detailed information. I can listen and understand many details/a lot of information. On 2/14/12, Ana Camora wrote: > Thank you very much for your reply regarding detail/ detailed > confusion. I appreciate it a lot.
