To Boldly Split That Infinitive
from Musings & Tales · host D. K. Wall

Turns out the grammar guides say otherwise, and I've been splitting infinitives ever since.Join me as I take a friendly swing at one of the most persistent grammar myths in the English language.

This won't hurt a bit.📖 Read To Boldly Split That Infinitive on my websiteHello, I'm D. K. Wall, author of novels and short stories. Welcome to Musings and Tales.
