Explaining the concept of misplaced modifier and providing examples for clarity.
Misplaced modifier: The sentence 'Being disruptive and unruly, Mother asked Freddie to sit down and listen up' has a misplaced modifier because the phrase 'Being disruptive and unruly' is not logically connected to the subject 'Mother' but seems to describe Freddie. To correct this, the sentence should be revised so that the modifier directly describes the subject.
Example: Mother asked Freddie, who was being disruptive and unruly, to sit down and listen up.
Fix: By changing the subject to align with the modifier, the sentence becomes grammatically correct and clear in meaning.
