Ola one:

Walking down the aisle with Ola, Isale's smile went brighter.





^Hmmmmmmm. Please help, Contumely.

A dangler. Isale's smile walked down the aisle?

You can say:
Walking down the aisle with Ola, Isale smiled brightly. Etc.

Ola one:

"Steve Jobs, the world-renowned techie, whose innovative products made him one of the greatest brains of the last 100 years, died Wednesday," Konkobelow News said.



"Steve Jobs, the world-renowned techie, whose innovative products made him one of the greatest brains of the last 100 years, died on Wednesday," Konkobelow News said.


Which one, please? Or both? Or none, Contumely?

Both are correct.
The first one is common in news headlines.

As she walked down the aisle with Ola, Isale's smile brightened.

Ola one:

POSER.


The actions and inactions of GEJ must be scrutinized by all Nigerians.



^Something is wrong. Please help us, Contumely.

"Inaction" is an uncountable noun. It is a mass noun.

After driving for more than 1 hour in Lekki, the map seemed unreal to him/her.


^Hmm. Please, help us, Contumely.

Is the map driving? add "to him/her"

Ileke-IdI:

As she walked down the aisle with Ola, Isale's smile brightened.

Thanks, but the subject must refer to Isale and not her smile. Her smile can only occupy the object position.

Ileke-IdI:


Is the map driving? add "to him/her"

No, Ileke. It's a dangler. The 'map' cannot be the subject. The driving must relate to someone doing it.

Ola one:

POSER.


Long live the king.


Long lives the king.

Which one, please? And, why? Help us, Contumely.

Thanks Muyoto.

Ola one:

POSER.

After driving for more than 1 hour in Lekki, the map seemed unreal.


^Hmm. Please, help us, Contumely.

A dangler. As explained!

Ola one:

Thanks, but the subject must refer to Isale and not her smile. Her smile can only occupy the object position.

Walking down the aisle with Ola, Isale's smile went brighter.

That would be kinda impossible since it's Isal's smile that is being focused on.

The best I can do is : With a brightened smile, Isale walked down the aisle with Ola.

Ola one:

POSER.



Steve Jobs was so great that other techies had problems understanding his concepts.



Steve Jobs was so great that other techies had problems in understanding his concepts.


Please, help us, Contumely.









Thank you, Contumely.

In today's English, both are correct.

Ola one:

No, Ileke. It's a dangler. The 'map' cannot be the subject. The driving must relate to someone doing it.

That's why I added the his/her. The driver feels that the map is unreal since he doesnt want to blame himself for his lack of direction.

Ileke-IdI:

That would be kinda impossible since it's Isal's smile that is being focused on.

Remember, the adjectival phrase is "walking down the aisle with Ola". It must modify the subject (the person doing the walking). Her smile cannot walk down the aisle.

Ileke-IdI:

The best I can do is : With a brightened smile, Isale walked down the aisle with Ola.

This is OK.

Ileke-IdI:

That's why I added the his/her. The driver feels that the map is unreal since he doesnt want to blame himself for his lack of direction.

But, the 'map' cannot be the subject of the clause, since the adjectival phrase is about "driving."

The subject of the main clause must refer to those in the car. You have to reposition the 'map.'

Ola one:

POSER.

After driving for more than 1 hour in Lekki, the map seemed unreal.


^Hmm. Please, help us, Contumely.

Th map seemed unreal, after driving for more tan one hour

Ileke-IdI:

Th map seemed unreal, after driving for more tan one hour

This isn't a modifier (a dangler). It has been rearranged. The first part is now the main clause.

@ OLA, Thanks a lot.
More of the posers please.
