English Language & Usage Asked on November 16, 2020
The fish used to bawl when I left, and the chicken would tell me how eager the fish awaited me.
Disregard the chickens and fish, I just needed something tangible.
ABC is sad when I go; XYZ tells me how eager ABC awaits me.
or
ABC…; XYZ tells me how eagerly ABC awaits me.
I’m trying to push that ABC was excited to see me, and that XYZ would tell me that.
Can I saw "how eager" or is that awkward? Does "awaits me" work or is that awkward? Does it convey ABC’s excitement? If not, any advice or better ways to phrase?
The fish used to bawl when I left, and the chicken would tell me how eager the fish awaited me.
"awaited me" is acceptable but I would prefer "awaited my return."
"eager "should be "eagerly"
The fish used to bawl when I left, and the chicken would tell me how eagerly the fish awaited my return.
