Hi Sage,
OG example
"[text removed by editor]" CORRECT
Previously i used to think that a modifier placed at the beginning of the sentence should be preceded directly by the noun its modifying. But this example shows otherwise, hence i read somewhere that if a modifier is modifying a verb then that modifier has freedom of placement. Correct me if im wrong.
Which brings me to my question
"Although not announced until February, 1968, in the summer of 1967 graduate student Jocelyn Bell observed the first pulsar, or rapidly spinning collapsed star, to be sighted. "
I think in this sentence "Although not announced until February" is modifying "observed" ? if yes, then why is the sentence wrong ?
Thanks,
