Let's look at the sentence you provided: "The child is learning horse riding and is wearing the horse riding gear, such as helmet, boots, etc."
To make it grammatically correct and smooth, you can say:
- "The child is learning to ride a horse and is wearing horse riding gear, such as a helmet and boots."
Explanation:
- Use "learning to ride a horse" instead of "learning horse riding" for proper expression.
- "Horse riding gear" is fine without "the" before it, unless you are specifying particular gear.
- Include articles like "a" before singular countable nouns: "a helmet".
- Instead of "etc." which is informal, listing the main items like helmet and boots works better.
