We are living with so many things around us and it makes our lives/life complex; they bring/provide us with us convenience and satisfaction to a certain extent.
1. Should it be 'lives' or 'life'?
2. Should it be 'bring' or 'provide us with'?
Thanks.
lives.
I presume you realize that you can't just plug in either of the bolded options in 2, with the rest of the sentence as you have it there--it's that second "us" that's
the stumbling block. Either "they bring us satisfaction" (which I'd prefer) or "they provide us with satisfaction' or simply "they provide us satisfaction", which I think is better.
On second thought, provide isn't bad either.
@fredesterly,
Thanks to all of you for your help.
