Grammar checking
Posted: 16 Nov 2021, 06:28
Can someone please tell if following sentence is grammatically correct or not; "This book will be beneficiary for all 15 to 65 years old people."
The word beneficiary is not used properly in this case because the definition of the word is "a person or thing that receives help or an advantage from something; one that benefits from something". The proper word would be "beneficial" instead. Personally, I would rewrite the phrase "15 to 65 years old people" as well to something that makes more grammatical sense. I have rewritten your example below to show the changes. Hope this helps!
"This book will be beneficial for all people between 15 and 65 years old."
