hey all,
I’m look for feedback regarding my diagram of Ephesians 1:7 and whether I have all the modifiers in the correct place.
I look forward to your responses.
grace and peace
Looks good to me. One thing sticks out, but I'm not sure if it's wrong exactly. To me, the "the"(s) of "forgiveness" and "riches" should be on separate branches from the preps, but the way you have it might be acceptable. Like I said, I don't remember the specifics of how to graph beyond just the basics.
I picked this way diagraming modifiers from Dr. Lendy in this video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GkX8DN_6zEU as well as Diagrammatical Analysis by Lee L. Kantenwein in the way I diagram prepositional phrases
To me, the "the"(s) of "forgiveness" and "riches" should be on separate branches from the preps, but the way you have it might be acceptable.
The standard forms:
(a) when you put the modifiers on lines at an angle from the subject-verb-object line, the "the" is on a separate line
(b) when you put the modifiers on lines parallel to the subject-verb-object line then there is only one line connecting up to the word modified.
I was taught form (b), however, form (a) is currently more commonly taught.
