Song, Jeung Hyeon
I made an English sentence and I need your comment please for grammar. Following is a sentence that I wrote. Someone says it strange sentence, but is this grammatically correct? Subject is "environment" and verb is "enables". What do you think? I need your comment please. Although he makes love with her in his dream, we should note that the comfortable and sensual environment that feminine sea provides him enables him to have such dream.

Hello Song, it is a very artistic sentence but I would make a couple of amendments. 'Although he makes love with her in his dream, we should note that the comfortable and sensual environment that THE feminine sea provides enables him to have such A dream.' These small corrections make it grammatically correct without changing your meaning as far as I can tell. Hope this helps Bob

It's not 'way off' in terms of grammar, you're missing an article, 'the feminine sea'. Also, using "provides him enables him" is repetitious and missing a comma "provides him, enables him". I've reworded it slightly below. "Although he makes love to her in his dream, we should note that the comfortable and sensual environment of the feminine sea allows him to have such a dream."

It's part of my research paper for Hemingway's "Islands in the stream"
