1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1the lioness of a lawyer that she has got in xxx is acting on her own initiative Explanation: This way the statement that the "she" has her tough lawyer in a place or perhaps a legal practice - denoted by xxx - gets included. And "agerar" is right - the "har" is not an auxiliary verb here -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 3 hrs (2014-05-27 17:38:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Of course the xxx in "som hon har i xxx" could also be the name of the lioness of a lawyer! |

whether that lioness of a lawyer she has in xxx [name] is acting on her own authority Explanation: Presumably "xxx" is referring to both the person whose level of knowledge the story's narrator wonders about and also the lawyer with the lioness-like characteristics. |
