Dear fediverse. Is this a correct English sentence?
"What potion does Prof. Lupin drink to refrain from turning into a werewolf?"
@forteller Refrain implies not doing something you want to do, so I'd replace "refrain from" with "prevent".
@seanl I knew there was some reason why I felt it was the wrong word. I just couldn't put my finger on it. But you described it. Thanks!
