This question already has an answer here:




  • 'both in terms of' or 'in terms of both'?

    1 answer




I have been provided with the following sentence by a native English speaker



Successful coalitions carefully choose the brands that they think are the best fit for their programme both in terms of value and benefit to their customers.



I am not a native English speaker so a bit hesitant to point out that the correct placement of the word "both" should be as below. Am I right?

          Successful coalitions carefully choose the brands that they think are
          the best fit for their programme both in terms of value and benefit to
          their customers.




          now why is it correct?



          I don't know it just is! Hopefully somebody will know
