Explain a Confusing Grammar Rule With Examples That Actually Stick
The textbook explanation used four grammatical terms you do not know to explain a fifth one. This states the rule in one plain sentence, shows it working across three different examples, flags the mistake learners usually make with it, and gives a memory trick so it stops slipping out of your head.
