Which structure is correct: "A and B or C" or "B or C and A"
Hi, I have a specific question about the following sentence:
They wear space suits to protect themselves from getting too hot or too cold and against fast-moving space dust.
Is there anything grammatically wrong with the sentence above? A few of us feel a better sentence would be by rearranging the underlined portions as shown:
They wear space suits to protect themselves against fast-moving space dust and from getting too hot or too cold.
But we're not sure if it's just a matter of preference.
Please help! Thank you!
