| Dec 27, 2015 at 21:26 | comment | added | Hot Licks | @BillJ - The same as in the sentence "Did you have any success finding..." | |
| Dec 27, 2015 at 21:24 | comment | added | BillJ | @Hot Licks Yes, yes, but that's not what he was asking. He wants to know the syntactic function of the non-finite clause "finding that book you wanted" | |
| Dec 27, 2015 at 21:19 | comment | added | Hot Licks | In this sense "joy" means "success". | |
