He always pays lip service to it. What he said in this time is also lacking in reality. Does this sound natural?
- English (US)
A little unnatural
"He always pays lip service to it." -- very good, very natural.
"What he said in this time is also lacking in reality." -- unnnatural. First, "said" is in the past tense, so you should say "was", not "is".
Try these instead:
"What he said this time was also detached from reality."
"What he said this time was also removed from reality."
"What he said this time was also unrealistic."
