Proper use of a word in the sentence

English Language & Usage Asked by ShadowScout on December 20, 2020

Ok, I’m doing a story and I’m very confused about how to properly say the sentence. “I’m willing to do so Love. But, what entices you to want such a desire like that?” I’m 12th grade English in reading and writing, but my grammar always needs help. Can you guys please help me with this sentence?

One Answer

First of all, look up the word entice in the dictionary and try and work out where you’ve gone wrong.

I’ll break it down further for you, if you’d like.

First sentence:

I’m willing to do so, love.

I assume you’re using a capital letter for ‘love’ because it’s a pet name or colloquial? Nevertheless, you wouldn’t use a capital letter; and in that sentence you would put a comma beforehand.

Second sentence:

You never want to start a sentence with ‘but’, unless you really know what you’re doing.

I’m afraid that ‘...entices you to want...’ is nonsensical.

My advice would be to put the two sentences together thus:

I’m willing to do so love, but why do these desires entice you so?

Notice that there’s no comma before “love” in the sentence I’ve written because I’ve broken it up differently.
