A dangling modifier happens when the opening phrase describes an action,
but the subject that comes after the comma is NOT the one doing that action.
Result? The sentence becomes illogical or accidentally funny.

A Rule
The subject after the comma must be the one performing the action in the opening phrase.

If the subject cannot logically do that action → it’s a dangling modifier.

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë' follows the stormy, lifelong connection between Heathcliff, a mysterious orphan taken in by the Earnshaw family, and Catherine Earnshaw, the wild, passionate girl who becomes the center of his world. Their bond is deep, instinctive, and undeniable.
When Catherine chooses to marry the refined Edgar Linton to gain social status, she shatters Heathcliff. Consumed by hurt, he leaves the moors, returns years later wealthy and hardened, and begins a calculated mission of revenge against everyone he believes separated them.

His bitterness traps both the Earnshaw and Linton families in a cycle of cruelty, abuse, and emotional ruin. Yet as the next generationyoung Catherine and Hareton—grow closer, they slowly undo the damage created by Heathcliff and Catherine’s tragic choices.
By the end, the love that once destroyed the older generation becomes a path to healing for the younger one, allowing peace to finally return to the windswept moors.

⏰


Be the person who breaks the cycle


If you were judged, choose understanding.
If you were rejected, choose acceptance.
If you were shamed, choose compassion.

Be the person you needed when you were hurting, not the person who hurt you.
To be better than what broke you, to heal instead of becoming bitter
so you act from your heart, not your pain..

🔥 The Four Language Skills — but let’s be honest… one of them rules the kingdom.

We all know the Big Four:
👂 Listening · 🗣️ Speaking · 📖 Reading · ✍️ Writing

But truth is: one skill is the real MVP — the one that decides whether you sound fluent or like you're buffering in real life. 😅

Some say Listening is the boss, others crown Speaking, and the nerdy legends swear by Reading and Writing.

My take? Listening runs the show.
If you can’t catch the message, nothing else works — master it, and every other skill levels up automatically. 🎧⚡

So tell me: Which skill is the true king for YOU? 🔥

👉 “Easy peasy Japanesey!”

It’s playful, childish, and super informal, perfect when you want to sound fun and light-hearted.

Example:
A: Can you fix this for me?
B: Sure. Easy peasy Japanesey!

Meaning: “Piece of cake. No big deal.”
