tended

Post by PinkLady »

Does this sentence make sense?


"The house is uninhabited, but not abandoned. While no one is no longer living there, it is still tended almost on a daily basis."

The tended part is ok.
Use of "no-one" is not quite right.

The house is uninhabited, but not abandoned. While no-one is living there (any longer), it is still tended almost on a daily basis. :ok: :ok: :ok: :mrgreen:
