    From one of your other videos and from analyzing Ben Franklin's autobiography, I got the useful idea that I can use grammar to "do things" with sentences. Example: "Sherlock Holmes hid in a closet." That's interesting. Holmes did a mysterious action. But the sentence "Sherlock Holmes hid in the closet to catch the jewel thief." Adding the infinitive clause tells us both what Holmes did and the reason why he did it. If I wrote these two ideas as two sentences, I would have informed my reader of the what and the why, but it would read jumpy. What I am also getting is that when I am told an adverb answers why, how, when or where that this tells us two things. First, it helps me understand the grammar of a sentence. For the sentence She read thoroughly" I know thoroughly is an adverb for it answers the question "how did she read?" She read thoroughly. But the second reason, adding words onto a sentence to deliver richer information." It makes the writing more mature than the simple sentence of "See Jane skip. Skip. Skip. Skip." Knowing my choices of what information I can add to my sentence helps me to write better in terms of richness and rhythm. I am wondering if you could add on a segment or two or three or more in which you show us how to use grammar so that I can write the things I hear inside my soul. With respect and appreciation
  • Keeping on repeating the main ideas is a superb way to deliver the intended message.

    While I was watching the lectures you taught in class with the students, I was hesitating, "I wish he could teach alone". Because naturally there was a lot of noise. Finally, my request came true. Thank you very much for your passionate lecture.
