"I just read a misplaced phrase. A phrase should be placed as closely as possible to the word it modifies or describes." Marie explains what a misplaced phrase or modifier is, then gives us an example by sharing and correcting the misplaced phrase that she discovered in her book, involving a salty sea captain, a seagull, and a red hat.

Workbook exercises and answer key are provided with this lesson.

Featured Music:
Chopin - Prelude No.4
