Is this sentence correct?

Question

Those ten days were the best ten days I had ever had.

Answer 1

Using the past perfect tense ("had ever had") indicates that those were the best ten days of your life up until that time, implying that maybe you had better days after that. That is OK if that is what you mean. However, if you want to say that those were the best ten days of your life, you should use present perfect tense: "Those ten days were the best ten days I have ever had."

It is also possible to simplify the sentence if you want: "Those were the best ten days I had ever had."

Answer 2

Those were the best ten days of my life.

Answer 3

They sound right . . . but I think the 'had' should be 'have'. Honestly, I'm not very sure though. But anyways:

Those ten days were the best days I have ever had.

Those were the best ten days I have ever had.

Those ten were the best days I have ever had.

Those days were the best ten I have ever had.

Those ten days were the best ones I have had.

I had my best days during those ten days.

* * or perhaps minus the 'have'. It will sound okay too ^_^

Those ten days were the best days I ever had.

Those were the best ten days I ever had.

Those ten were the best days I ever had.

Those days were the best ten I ever had.

Those ten days were the best ones I had.

I had my best days during those ten days.

Answer 4

take out the first had, or make it a have:

Those are the best ten days I have ever had.

or

Those are the best ten days I ever had

Answer 5

Those ten days were the best ten days I ever had.
Those were the best ten days I ever had.
Those were my best ten days ever.

Answer 6

It should be ..."have ever had."
"Those ten days were the best ten days I have ever had."

The sentence is also redundant...so it should read as one of the ways "takeweedndie" wrote them....in other words, don't repeat "ten days" twice in the same sentence.

Answer 7

Those ten days were the best ever ten days I have had. ( used as an intensifier)

Answer 8

It's tough without seeing the previous sentence but I would change what you have so that it reads.

.....(your previous sentence); those ten days were the best I ever had.

Answer 9

almost, those ten days were the best ten days i HAVE ever had, u should use present perfect not past perfect

Answer 10

Yes, it is correct.

I would strongly suggest you take caution when openly ask the internet for assistance in grammar, usage, and mechanics. There a lot of people here with a lot of confidence and not enough education to match. Most of the proposed corrections I've read here are less correct than your original.

While it *IS* correct for written and formal usage, no one will likely say that in common usage...

"HAVE ever had" and "HAD ever had" are BOTH correct, it all depends on circumstance of usage. There are a lot of subtleties to English that even a lot of its speakers don't notice...
