Your sentence was not added because the following already exists.
I have a doubt about this sentence: Shouldn't it be "butcher for trim" instead of "butcher to trim"? I was thinking in the difference between ask and ask for.
Creo que la frase es de la misma estructura que #2291915
Si, amigo, pero en español pedir es "ask for" y no "ask" que sería preguntar, de ahí mi extrañeza en estas frases. Creo que ambas debieran tener el "for" presente pero no está. A ver si algún nativo de lengua inglesa nos dá su opinión. Un saludo.
The sentence "I asked the butcher for trim all the fat off of the meat." is incorrect. The current version is fine. "Ask for" cannot be used with an infinitive, (at least as far as I know, off the top of my head; a sentence like "I asked the butcher for some meat." however, is correct.)
