I don't have Geography in Year 6. Probaby Year 8, 'cause I think my brother does it, and that's his grade. LOL. But I think it works without double 'had', just use one. Also without the comma. Try that.

My friend goes to a school where they have graphic animations {lol}
Re: A Question. - Rena - 10-10-2008 11:48 PM
>;o I want Graphic Animations! That'd be awesome! At least in Year 7, at my school, they'll teach us how to use Photoshop, so no more relying on Picnik

Hi Guys!
I have a question for you guys!
My english teacher at my school, is highly confinced that this sentence is right:
'' I had had my breakfast, before I went to school.'' {blink}
She really thinks it is right, because you ate breakfast BEFORE you went to school, and there was something else why it would be HAD HAD, but I don't know how to translate that correctly. But what do you guys, real english people, think about that? Is it correct, the sentence? Or is my teacher a bad one? {wacko}
-'BlondBimbo
or would it?
[/quote]
The comma doesn't matter.
But anyways, you can trust your English teacher.
Re: A Question. - Bat - 11-10-2008 01:34 PM
I would have to disagree.
I think the sentence should read-
I HAVE had my breakfast before I went to school.

Well over here the year system works:
Pre-school/Nursery (2 to 4)
Primary School:
Reception (4 to 5)
Year 1 (5 to 6)
Year 2 (6 to 7)
Year 3 (7 to 8 )
Year 4 (8 to 9)
Year 5 (9 to 10)
Year 6 (10 to 11)
Secondary School:
Year 7 (11 to 12)
Year 8 (12 to 13)
Year 9 (13 to 14)
Year 10 (14 to 15)
Year 11 (15 to 16)
Year 12/6th form (optional) (I think it's 16 to 17 but no idea)
Then college for 16-year-old's and over (don't know how college system works that much but pretty sure we don't all go by sophomores, junior etc, but we do call knew students Freshies - like Freshman
).And finally University.

Technically that would be incorrect depending on how you're relating to the sentence.
'I HAD had my breakfast..' is speaking past-tense, 'I HAVE had my breakfast...' is speaking presently.
Anyway, your teacher is correct Mel, 'I had had my breakfast this morning' is grammatically correct.
