<div class="box box-top">
|
|
<p>pi is a really useful particle that regroups modifiers.</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
normally, each modifier modifies the sum of all the previous words in
|
|
the phrase. the particle pi creates a second phrase which modifies the
|
|
first phrase.

<div class="box box-top">
|

<div class="box box-top">
|

<p>
|
|
it's a common mistake to try to cram as much information as possible
|
|
into just one phrase. try to avoid this!
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
if you want to be more easily understood, it's often better to describe
|
|
concepts in sentences, and then refer back to previously described
|
|
concepts with a concise phrase which makes sense within the context
|
|
you've established.
