Mental stimulation

Does this sentence make sense:



"I like hearing his lectures, because I feel mentally stimulated."

  

Top answer

Christine Christie Does this sentence make sense We can figure out the meaning, but it should be more like this: I like hearing his lectures because they make me feel mentally stimulated. The way you wrote it, the reader might think that you are already feeling mentally stimulated, and that makes you like to hear the lectures. CJ
