Hello, teachers!
If a student who entered a college on a scholarship for sports talents says
"I can play tennis most of my school life.",
is the comment understandable?
How about "I can play tennis for /through most of my school life." or "I can spend most of my school life playing tennis." ?
Thank you in advance,
Junkomama |

Hi,Junkomama
From my view, there has to be a prep. before ''most'' in this case.
''I can play tennis for/during most of my school time.''
Your last way to express this meaning is also understandable.
