Error 10: Avoid Faulty Parallelism

“Orders of durable goods are declining along with housing prices, to prompt experts to conclude that the economy is slowing.”

In any sentence, all of the different components must start, continue and end in the same or in a parallel way. It is particularly common to find errors of parallelism in sentences that contain lists of actions. In this example, the correct verb form would be “prompting.”

任何一個句子中,所有元件從頭到尾都得維持相同或者平行的結構。在句中列出不同的動作時平行結構出錯,這樣的情況尤其普遍。在例句中,正確的動詞形態應該是 “prompting”。
