In or on? Is it ok to use "elements"?

Tell me which content you want me to copy on the paper.


I can write the member list and any elements in the (project) report for you.

It's "on" with "paper", but you don't need that. It's included in the idea of copying. "elements" isn't quite right.

  • It's "on" with "paper", but you don't need that.
  • It's included in the idea of copying.
  • "elements" isn't quite right.
  • Say "parts" or "portions" (of the report).
  • A native would probably say something more like this: Tell me what you want me to copy.

A native would probably say something more like this:

Tell me what you want me to copy. I can write the member list for you and any parts of the report you'd like.
