Learn English – How to phrase “I have always trusted and hopefully will always trust you”

sentence-construction

How would I phrase this sentence properly:

I have, and hopefully will, always trusted (should I add a trust
here?) you

This is what I thought:

I have always trusted and hopefully will always trust you.

Seems a little redundant though, any suggestions?

Best Answer

Any of these should work:

  • I have always trusted you; and hopefully, I always will.
  • I have always trusted you. And hopefully, I always will.

This is more dramatic/emphatic: (and more common):

  • I have--and always will--trust you.

You could also say this:

  • I have always trusted you. And hopefully -- if you don't rob me or stab me in the back -- I always will.
