Please help me figure a grammar construction out🙏 Does the sentence seem correctly? The remarks are the same as they were previously. May I put the adverb “previously” before “they were”: “The remarks are the same as previously they were.” Or between “they” and “were”, not in the end of sentence, to sound more fluent: “The remarks are the same as they previously were.” And, may I use pronoun “it” referring the noun “remarks”, even though it’s plural: “The remarks are the same as it were previously.” or…as they were noted previously or…the remarks are as the same as they were noted previously SOS😩 😩😩

"The remarks are the same as they previously were." This one sounds more natural to me. You cannot use "it" for "remarks" because "remarks" is plural.
