Identifying Basic Grammar Patterns

In this post, I will provide the link to the longest paragraph in my QRG project. Using the paragraph, I highlighted parts of speech, sentence patterns, subordinate word groups, and sentence types.

In this exercise, I found that it was very difficult to identify sentence patterns, intransitive verbs, and subordinate clauses. I think that my writing has good fluency and variance of sentence structure, but I think that it would be beneficial to be able to easily identify these grammatical aspects. That way, if something does not sound right, I can pinpoint the problem in the sentence. And as always, a better grasp on the grammar rules can only make you a better writer!
