badly need your help. Where so many hours have been spent in convincing myself that I am right, is there not some reason to fear I may be wrong?
I am from France and learning to write in English, tell me whether I wrote the following sentence: “Diet based on this kind of meal replacement has proved to be safe, fast, simple and healthy.”
Thanks for the help :-(, Rima.
