Grammar
"...academic context that I was writing in/for."
Hi all. Happy New Year!
This stems from another post and I was just wondering would these two versions convey the same meaning? What I was trying to say was that this particular way of writing was what I was looking for in writing this response to the essay question.
...this is what I wanted to achieve in the academic context that I was writing in.
...this is what I wanted to achieve in the academic context that I was writing for.
Thank you
