Hello,

I encountered with the following sentence which seems odd to me.

He was lived the first fifteen years of his life being raised in Al Ain.

I have got problem with the red part of it. Does it seem natural to you native English speakers? would you please explain more about the grammatical structure of the sentence above?

Thank you so much,

The sentence is incorrect. Not just the red part. Where did you find it?

Wikipedia. I will share the link of this article later. I found that many English articles in the Wikipedia have got grammatical errors.

Perhaps:

He was raised for the first fifteen years of his life in Al Ain.
