For a takeaway segment this week, I want you to focus on one way that parallel structure
can go well and one way that parallel structure
can go poorly. The way parallel
structure can go well was in the section
called the Nifty Not. The way parallel
structure can go poorly was in the section
called Agreement. So those are the two concepts I want you to briefly reflect on: the Nifty Not and Agreement. Write down a short sentence or two describing what each is, and also include how
you might use both of them the next time you
write or edit something. We'll then hear how a couple of students of mine frame
their own thoughts. In case it would help to review the relevant reading before
putting down your takeaways, here are links to those sections.
