Post subject:  Transposition

One more thing on the topic ... transposition.

If you must -- and I mean MUST -- use an adverb, do not transpose.

We softly touch, not touch softly.

And adverb modifies a verb, that means it MUST come before it, not after.

I see this all the time, and I'm calling a moratorium on transposition -- take heed.

We are prose writers, not poets.

If you are a poet, then forget everything I just said -- you have a whole other order of rules to consider, and that is ground I dare not trod.

Thanks. These areas where you show examples of problem writting are very helpful. I can understand better what these problems are and how to fix them when I can see both the correct and incorrect way to deal with them. :)

My pleasure. I'm hoping to start some dialogues on the nature of style, so I hope people will post if they agree or disagree, and even what some of their own hang ups are. Maybe we can explore how to tackle those issues.

While it might be "acceptable," it is a weak choice of words. Instead of showing, it's essentially a list of atrocities visited upon a sacrifice. Mind you, that's a topic unto itself.

Read that paragraph out loud. The sentences with the highlighted words sound awkward. There is definitely some fat to be trimmed.

btw, I am certain that I have read this before.
