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.

As a native English speaker, speaking British English, I would say:
The remarks are the same as THEY (not it) were previously.
The word RemarkS is plural so you have to subsitute it with a plural word THEY not it * (which is singular*)
I hope this helps you 😀
