MISPLACED MODIFIER: Some modifiers, especially simple modifiers — only, just, nearly, barely — have a bad habit of slipping into the wrong place in a sentence.

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

Remember : the modifier tells more about the person or thing ex) My father, THE MAN WITH BLUE EYES, needs his CD back -->the modifier is the man with blue eyes..An example of a misplaced modifier My mom, which we bought from the store, gave us tangerines -->they didnt but their mom from the store, but the tangerines :P

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

buy*

OpenStudy (linn99123):

so it be C :o

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

Not exactly -->it says ''whom'' so we know that it's talking about Gina Try again, you got it :)

OpenStudy (linn99123):

B...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (destinymasha):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My cousin has a rehearsal, whom we drove to the dance studio. Is saying that you drove the rehearsal to the dance studio.

OpenStudy (destinymasha):
