This is my final project in Grammar of English Clauses class which I attended when I was doing my master degree at the University of Manchester.
There is an unusual grammar in English in which 'try and V' is considered a single word. Example in a is considered grammatical while those in b-e are ungrammatical.
a. Let me try and think of an example that isn't confidential.
b. * I tried and think of an example that isn't confidential.
c. * I have tried and think of an example that isn't confidential.
d. * She tries and think(s) of an example that isn't confidential.
e. * I am trying and think(ing) of an example that isn't confidential.
Describes the history of the Washington Monument, how it was built, and what it represents.
Shortly after George Washington's death in 1799, Congress recognized the need for a presidential monument in his honor. However, progress did not begin on the structure until 1832. The Washington Monument traces the construction of the monument from its design by Robert Mills to halts in construction due to lack of funds and the Civil War to its dedication in 1885. Today, the world's largest obelisk stands as an eternal reminder of the accomplishments of the nation's first president.
