ParaPro Exam Prep 42, Modifiers — Misplaced and Dangling
This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - A modifier must be placed directly next to the word it describes to avoid confusion. - A misplaced modifier incorrectly describes the wrong noun that is present in the sentence. - A dangling modifier describes a noun that is completely missing from the sentence. - On the ParaPro exam, look for introductory '-ing' phrases to spot potential dangling modifiers. - Use the 'Point to the Doer' technique to quickly check if a modifying phrase logically connects to the sentence's subject.
