Read the following sentence with misplaced modifiers:
scoray [572]

The best to revise this sentence that contains a misplaced modifier is by changing the position of "to me" at the beginning of the second clause (last option).

<h3>What is a misplaced modifier?</h3>

<h3>Why does the sentence include a misplaced modifer?</h3>

The clause "the most fun of all was using the chemicals to melt the plastic bricks to me" suggest the speaker used the chemicals on his/her body, which is illogical.

<h3>How to revise the sentence?</h3>

The best is to place correctly the modifer "to me" as "to me, the most fun of all was using the chemicals to melt the plastic bricks".

SSSSS [86.1K]

im a digital artist. meaning i use a macbook pro to draw. the better quality the drawing, the more money im capable of making off of it. i do enjoy doing the art, but a lot of the time, i wake up, begin the drawing.. maybe have a small snack midway through the day, then go back to work until its time for bed. therefore i use up about 99% of my time doing the work and not giving myself any breaks. weeks, weekends, even at night. someone once asked when i stop working. when i told them at night, they asked me what time i go to bed, and i told them 1:00 am. hahah, its sad but its the truth. so basically... i do love what i do, but its exhausting. word of advice... don't work yourself to the point of mental exhaustion.
