    Does it 'sound ' English?
    Message from ffrraamm posted on 22-02-2009 at 13:32:01

    Hi everyone,

    The sentence mentioned in the title is :
    " This project enables me to put into practice the theoretical approach of optical I had learned at the intensive undergraduate preparation course. "

    Does it sounds "native" to you ?

    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    I'm not sure what you mean by 'optical' in this context. It's an adjective. I think you need a noun. I would use the preposition 'on' in the phrase: 'on the intensive undergraduate preparation course.'
    Best Wishes,

    Hi,

    Thanks for your answer Chris. I think optics is the noun I needed. I will use 'on' as you say.

    Thanks

    "...on the ...course?".... Personally, I think "at" was ok. You could also use "in" or "during."
