Rewrite Explanation: It's OK but the entire sentence is very clunky and overlong When you want to eat well on holiday, you can websurf/ Google to find out/discover what is the best food in the place/area you"re visiting -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 24 mins (2023-05-05 08:43:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or what the best food is But I'd rewrite that too and just say and find/discover the best food of... No real need for "-is" at all . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2023-05-05 12:49:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- both "in" and "of" are OK here "When you want to eat well on holiday, you can websurf/Google to find/discover the best food in/of the place/area you're visiting. I've given you several alternative words to use -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 hrs (2023-05-05 23:17:47 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Syntax in English is often more abiut flow than rules, hence best to remove the "is" . Too many verbs in the original sentence anyway . -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 days (2023-05-10 06:51:11 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Glad to have helped. Agree with Tony |
