For a story I'm writing...I have 3 sentences here, and I don't think the last sentence is very elegant and grammatical. I wonder how to make it better.
A birth of twins does not happen very often.
A birth of twins during a solar eclipse only happens once in hundreds of years.
And when a birth of twins happens in a royal family during a total eclipse, thousands of years might elapse before that happens again.
Could you please suggest how to make that last sentence better?
Thank you very much.
@rogergrass,
Sorry Rog. I don't see anything in need of improvement.
the third sentence is the best of the three, (and considering the population of the world and the number of total solar eclipses somewhere in the world, I tend to doubt that the birth of twins during a TSE happens only 'hundreds of years' apart).
