I wondered if the structure of these two sentences was correct :
1. And what self-narrative would this person engage in?
2. In what narration?
The last sentence refers to the previous one.

Please explain what exactly you think is incorrect, what exactly you think would be correct instead, and why exactly you don't just use that instead. Thank you. – RegDwigнt Aug 07 '20 at 13:46

@RegDwigнt My hesitation comes from the use of the preposition "in" at the end of the first sentence. Regarding the second sentence, I was wondering if it were any other adjective than "what" to use instead. – domi Aug 07 '20 at 15:50

"My hesitation comes from the use of the preposition 'in' at the end of the first sentence." Does this answer your question? When is it appropriate to end a sentence in a preposition? – Jason Bassford Aug 07 '20 at 16:15

I don’t think engaging in a narrative is quite right. What kind of story would he tell himself? Perhaps the awkwardness is an effort to avoid a gendered pronoun reference. – Xanne Aug 07 '20 at 20:18
