Is it grammatically correct to start with "as well as"?
Is it grammatically correct to start with "as well as"?
Can you correct this for me?
As well and as impressive in the same sentence is it ok?
As well as Anthony's done with his 50 points, John is as impressive with his 35 points considering he's not a big scorer.
As well as he's done, it just wasn't enough.
As many times as he's done it, it should be names after him.
thanks

I would add that the contraction is liable to be read as a possessive because the reader wants "as well as" to mean "and". "As well as Anthony has done" is better.

The last sentence : As many times as he's done it, it should be named after him.
I'm trying to say that he's done it so many times, it should be named after him.
Would it not be better to phrase it 'Considering the number of times he's done it, it should be named after him."
Is the original sentence "As many times as he's done it, it should be named after him." natural o

Hi,
Might I ask you what you think about a sentence starting with as nice as?
Is this natural Avangi?
As nice as he is, he's not someone you can take advantage of.
Thank you for your help

AnonymousAs nice as he is, he's not someone you can take advantage of.Natural!
We sometimes add "may": As easy as it may seem, not everyone can do it!
(As nice as he seems/As nice as he may seem,)
