well-founded

Post by PinkLady »

Is this sentence correct?



"The lecturer gave a very well-founded explanation to that phenomenon."

Correct!

I personally might quibble with the use of "very". The explanation is either well-founded or not well-founded. It can't really be a slightly well-found explanation :)

"The lecturer gave a well-founded explanation to that phenomenon." OK
