A. Take note of what I'm about to say

妳同學的句子， 他用的是verb的note， 所以也是對的。 意思是"we" "note" “我們” “發現了；紀錄了”
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
we note a great lorde of Virginia to be nearly naked and covered in tribal tattoos.
可以這麽用， 但不是最好的用法。 sentence, 有點 awkward.
如果在這裏把note變成notice, 那就會暢順壹點。
但語法上來說； 沒有錯。 解釋也是壹樣，因為這裏用的note是‘verb’的那個。 所以也ok.
“Note” something "to be“ something 是壹個正確的句型來的。
