Hello everyone,
In Portuguese, we usually use the equivalent of "predestined" to say in a sort of mystical way that "somebody is/was born to do something really special or spectacular, for example, in sports (soccer, formula 1, etc)'' or in charity. My question: Does "predestined" sound natural/correct in the examples I made below?
a. John is a predestined player. Scoring at the last minute, leading his team to victory was amazing!
b. Jane was a predestined person. She wrote a lot of books, never used much of the money she got and donated everything to charity.
Thank you in advance!
