Using the same word for twice in a single sentence [duplicate]

  1. Each sensor from the skeleton has different orientation values and each sensor is rotated individually to match the world coordinate system.

  2. Each sensor from the skeleton has different orientation values and rotated individually to match the world coordinate system.

In the first sentence, “each sensor” is repeated. How can I modify it into a proper sentence?

In my second sentence, I used only “and”. Is that correct?


Solution 1:

Each sensor from the skeleton has different orientation values and is rotated individually to match the world coordinate system.

You need both verbs, "has" and "is" This is because you must explicitly keep what is different in the two sentences while removing what is the same.

You could however use "rotate" as an active verb

Each sensor from the skeleton has different orientation values and rotates individually to match the world coordinate system.
