Subject: посмотреть со стороны коллеги, как правильно написатьОчень полезно посмотреть на себя со стороны, что ты и помог мне сделать. |
| It helps to see oneself as others see you, which is what you helped me do. |
|
It's good to be able to look at yourself the way others see you and this is what you helped me to do. It's very good to be able to objectlively look at yourself which is what you helped me (to) do. |
| The ability to self analyse is a very useful one and you helped me to understand/do this. |

| Nina79, никак не могу понять, что происходит с help (to) - без to или с to? Где почитать? |

"Help is a verb that can be used with or without to and with or without an object before the infinitive…" http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/learningenglish/grammar/learnit/learnitv226.shtml |

Ссылочка у меня эта имеется, но я давно туда не заглядывал. Большое спасибо, уважаемый! Насколько я понимаю, это явление ещё никак не обозвали, кроме как bare infinitive |

operator is quite right help is one of those verbs all i can say, from the point of view of a native, is that most people (americans) tend to not use "to" unless they want something to sound more official or formal. but personally, i think it's a style question. if your sentence sounds better with to - use it. if it sounds awkward with to - dont use it. :) |
