Hello :slight_smile:

Kindly go over the sentences below and tell me if they are correct.

A: The meal was very expensive, so I had to make the most of it by stuffing myself.
B: I don’t want to get married as a matter of course.

Thanks a lot :slight_smile:

A) is fine.

B) I would understand that to mean ‘I don’t want to get married just because it is seen to be the natural thing to do.’ If that is what you mean, then that is also okay.

Thanks again B :slight_smile:
