"Насколько" должно быть слитно.

Yulia Madded a comment 7 years ago

Depend on the context. If u want to incentivize a high score response u tell them ten-to-one.

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

I don't see how you can elicit an honest response if you prompt them to give you a "high-score response." I've heard everything!

Yulia Madded a comment 7 years ago

It's just human behavior. I did not say you'll get an honest response, i said if you want to influence it...that's why i was referring to be context dependent

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

Well, if you're open to suggestions, I'd like to help you: (1) it's more idiomatic to say "on scale of x to x"; and (2) in terms of happiness, it doesn't make sense to start at 10 and work down. That's why there's no instance of it online. In fact, I searched just "are you on a scale of 10 to 1" (which allows for any adjective to hypothetically appear before "are") and there was not one example to speak of: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22are+you+on+a+10+to+1+scale%22&oq=%22are+you+on+a+10+to+1+scale%22&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0i8i30k1l4.827578.827578.0.828641.1.1.0.0.0.0.345.345.3-1.1.0....0...1.1.64.psy-ab..0.1.345.Gus1ujntJ_A

The Tragedy Of Pudd'nhead Wilson (Annotated Edition) By Mark Twain: "... on a scale of ten to one with his pantograph".

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

Giulia, the fact that Mark Twain wrote this doesn't change the fact that nobody would ask how happy you are on a scale of ten to one. 🙁 It sounds ludicrous.

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

Do you even know what that means? I don't even know. I've never heard of a pantograph.

Yulia Madded a comment 7 years ago

I do not think we should make a big case out of it.

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

It's not a big case honey, like I said, I only want to help. I feel we are all here to learn. You're very welcome to say "on a 10 to 1 scale." 😊 Everyone will understand.

Yulia Madded a comment 7 years ago

which one you like most of all:
on a scale of zero to ten / on a scale of 0 to 10
on a scale of one to ten / on a scale of 1 to 10
on a ten-point scale / on a 10-point scale

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

Also how happy do you feel = now, how happy are you = generally.

Yulia Madded a comment 7 years ago

из вопроса не понятно: речь идет о сейчас или в общем. поэтому буду считать, что оба варианта корректны.

🇺🇸 Uly 🐝added a comment 7 years ago

Непонятно тебе, поскольку английский для тебя не родной, но для носителя "how happy/lucky/sad/ do you feel?" скорее о сейчас, в то время как "how... are you?" более общий вопрос. Так что оба варианта корректны, да, только выбор глагола слегка изменяет смысл.
