DARK CORNERS OF THE LANGUAGE: DANGLING PARTICIPLE
I am not too happy with my daughter's school.

I have just received an email from them saying: "We told you that we would organise meetings for parents to explain how the school's finances work. We are writing now to invite you to one of the first two meetings."


This is unexpected. When I enrolled my daughter in this school, I had no idea I would be expected to explain the school's finances.

And who are these other parents who will help in the explaining?

At least the school is organising the meeting but, really, one has to query why they can't explain their own finances.
