Use and Misuse / Is it okay to use two WILL’s in one sentence?

« on: May 22, 2011, 12:29:45 PM »

sir, good evening. 

Is it okay to use two WILL’s in one sentence?
Are the following  sentences grammatically correct:
He WILL marry her before he WILL travel to Australia.
He will marry her before he TRAVELS to australia.

thank you.

sir....about this sentence:

“‘A very rare occurrence happened in Manila Zoo last week as our zebra had finally given birth to a hebra. Though the foal may look healthy and active now, we are still monitoring its health,’ Manalastas told the Manila Bulletin in an exclusive interview.”

why not:

A very rare occurrence happened in Manila Zoo last week when our zebra gave birth to a hebra.
