To Boldly Split Infinitive That None Have Split Before
I’m working on (yet another) cover letter, and would like advice on a phrasing. Which sounds better:
”…I would love to have the chance to develop my abilities further…”
or
”…I would love to have the chance to further develop my abilities…”
?

"...I would love to have the chance to further develop my abilities..." This one sounds better, to me anyway. The other one sounds odd because it ends with "further". I don't know, it just seems funny.

I agree with Brette.
