    Default Canopy

    Is my sentence proper English?

    You can see branches of maples trees from the both sides of the street reach together and cover the sky.


    Thank you so much for your reply.

    azgol, PLEASE try to give more helpful titles to your threads. 'Canopy' tells us nothing about your question.

    I meant the branches of trees from both sides arched over the street so that they form a canopy. But I didn't use the word canopy in my sentence because we see a canopy in the rain forest but not in a city.
