"Bodies found dead in house"

Well, they would be, wouldn't they?

When I read it I wasn't really sure what you was getting at cos they could have been found dead anywhere. It's one of those, it's too early in the day for me :lol: :lol:

is that inference that to be "bodies" they would be dead?

cant be

so would "corpses found in house" be correct?

Don't worry Ms Toots . . . it's just English language being used to describe an event.

And that's what langauges are for; to describe, inform, etc.

Nothing wrong in that.
