Preposition help!!!

Post by Samosa »

I was just wondering which prepositon ('in' OR 'with') would be most suitable in this sentence:
He walks in/with an awkward gait.
If it's not much trouble, please specify the reason as well.
THANKS IN ADVANCE! {-:

You walk WITH a certain gait. (It simply happens to be the correct preposition with this noun!)
