Separate circumstance

circumstance - a minor member who answers the sentence adverbial questions and at the same time expressed gerund, verbal participle phrases, prepositional-case designs.Circumstances characterize the action, a sign, a way of an action (How? How? ), place ( Where? Where? Where? ), cause ( Why? ), condition ( Contrary to what? Under what conditions? ), the purpose ( Why? ).On these questions it is determined rank circumstances its value.Circumstances can be expressed in prepositional-case groups phraseology, infinitive.

Separate circumstance - a fact which may have different values ​​and which is shown with a tone (with pronunciation) and punctuation (in writing).

( stumbled , she nearly fell to his knees. Rodion bouncing with impatience, I tried to keep up with his father. The impact he began to slide on the ice, if shayba.Nesmotrya to tears and excitement , the day was a success.)

1. Separate fact can be expressed in a single or a gerund gerund with dependent words (verbal participle phrases).This kind of circumstances stands comma, regardless of their place in the sentence.(

Lying on a shelf , he stared vacantly at the ceiling of the car. He was sitting on the windowsill, lazily waving legs . He, humming , walked slowly toward the alley).

2. Separation of the circumstances, which are expressed prepositional-case forms of the noun, is optional.Their separation depends on the semantic load (connection of two or more values ​​adverbial), weak syntactic relation with the predicate expressed by the verb, or stylistic problems posed by the author.

if circumstances has a comparative value, and expressed a noun with prepositions (like like like like like), it is - a separate thing.(He was bouncing on a trampoline, like a ball . Like a storm, annoyed Victor swept through the room. Natalia, seemed sleepy, blankly dropping her eyes.)

3. circumstances relevant assignment is separate if beginswith union despite .( Despite a morning burst of energy , right now she felt a little dizzy).

Note

Separate fact may sometimes express a group of words that precede the predicate and beginning with prepositions ( due, if any, in the absence, due, due, according to the contrary, due ).(Examples. With its strong character, Elena broke the sudden difficulties. But Elena broke the sudden difficulties thanks to his strong character . Contrary to the Constitution and the requirements of the authorities, Sergei came to the camp in a blue shirt. But Sergei came to collectin a blue shirt contrary to the requirements of the Charter.)

If the proposal is present uniform isolated circumstance, the punctuation stavte just under ordinary homogeneous states.( gesticulating awkwardly bouncing , shouting with joy , he ran along the road. He ran down the road, gesticulating , high bouncing. Waving his hands and GHB shouting, he ran down the road . )

offers a distinct circumstances in their structure similar to other syntactic structures that do not require punctuation.

RememberCommas are not put, if the circumstances are expressed

  • set phrases.(He went to prepare a draft slipshod ).
  • Pronounced Uncirculated single gerunds.It is believed that these words (sitting, lying down, reluctantly, without looking, and so forth.) Substantivized, ieformed by moving one part of speech (adverbs in this case) to another (gerund).(We talked sitting . But: We talked, sitting in a chair.

* Note. If the circumstance is expressed in the usual gerund formed from the verb, it certainly stands apart. ( Turning , she wiped her tears).
