Intermediate sentence

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An intermediate sentence is a partial sentence or an equivalent construction within a sentence structure . A sentence-valued participle or a sentence-valued infinitive is considered an equivalent construction . The sub-clause or equivalent construction is in the middle of the clause in which it is inserted. - In contrast to the parenthesis, the intermediate sentence is syntactically dependent.
