Hi everyone! I would be glad if somebody could help me. Is it grammatical : I live in the same village as my parents live in. ?
Or how to say it in English?
Thanks in advance.

Well, if you must end the sentence with a preposition (which is against the generally ignored rule), change "as" to "that". other possibilities include: "I live in the same village as my parents", "I live in the same village in which my parents live".
