    One sentence/ Correction
    Message from airis posted on 07-02-2017 at 23:42:08 (D | E | F)
    Dear friends
    I am trying to improve my writing skills and wrote the sentence below, can you please evaluate the sentence from a native perspective?
    Thanks in advance ,

    "The fundamental principle of veterinary science education is to raise conciseness about animal health care issues and animal welfare, ethic problems among veterinarian candidates."

    Hello,
    It is a long sentence, you need a five-litre lung capacity to read it through !
    Did you mean conciseness or consciousness ?
    "The fundamental principle of veterinary science education is to raise conciseness(consciousness?) about animal health care issues and animal welfare, ethic problems among veterinarian candidates."

    Hi.
    I also think it is very long . The reader misses the aim of the sentence and also it's meaning during the reading it. Please rewrite.
    It's the first and most important problem.
    Have a nice time with my answer!

    Hello airis
    I'll join the club of the other contributors. You'd better make shorter sentences.
    Or, if you really want to keep this long one , and if I understand your ideas correctly , there might be a structural problem : use a comma after each matter (theme) and use (move) "and" before the last one.
    Wish you the best !

    Hello,
    Your sentence is too long to read as one sentence. You should change and write two sentences.
