Are these sentences natural? Oct 15

Hi,

Are these sentences natural to a native ear?

1. She no longer wears glasses because she had leaser sugrgy done a few months ago.

2. She lights his day up.

3. They would rather have their heads shaved but go through this process.

Thanks,
MG

With these corrections, it's OK.

2. She lights his day up. OK.

3. They would rather have their heads shaved but go through this process. ???
I'm not sure what you mean. There are two possibilites here:
1) They would rather have their heads shaved than go through this process.
2) They would rather have their heads shaved, but go through this process.

Thanks,
MG

See above.

I agree with emsr2d2, but perhaps "She lights up his day" is the more common form.

Yes, you're right. That slipped by me.
