I STILL HAVE TO SAY THIS

Dear Teachers,

1. I would hate to say this, but I still have to say that : you should look at yourself again before you want to preach to others. Hope you'll always keep this advice in your mind.

- Is this natural to say?

Thanks very much to Teachers,

Stevenukd.

I would hate to say this, but I still have to say that : you should look at yourself again before you want to preach to others. I hope you'll always keep this advice in your mind. "in your mind" is not actually wrong, but "in mind" is more natural.

  • "in your mind" is not actually wrong, but "in mind" is more natural.
  • Omitting the word "I" at the start of the second sentence is something you might do in informal conversation, but when you write it down it's better to include "I".
