Hello,
I have doubts about the sequence of words.
I wrote:
What I can say, strict diet is my best advise in the circumstances given.
Is this right?
Can/should it be:
What I can say, strict diet is my best advise in the given circumstances.
Alexander. |

What I can say, is that in the circumstances given, a strict diet is my best advice.
You should stress the word, 'can'.
Or you can reduce it to the following...
(I can say that) a strict diet is my (best) advice (in the circumstances given).
OR:-(Given the circumstances), I recommend a strict diet. |
