 Re: Grammar problem with "to"
There's absolutely nothing wrong with this sentence.
It seems "weird" simply because you are thinking about it too much and because it is written out rather than spoken. However, it's a grammatically sound English statement.
Such apparent repetition* occurs fairly routinely in English:
The boys had had enough of all the noise.
You could see he was concerned that that old house might go up in flames at any moment.
* Apparent repetition because it represents the back-to-back occurrence of two homographs. |
