How to have scrolling vertically as well as horizontally inside fragment of fragment activity?

Sentence Fragment Rule Exception?

  • My English instructor is pretty anal when it comes to grammar rules. In the first draft of one paper I wrote, she marked a few spots as fragments. Technically, yes they are, but they still fit and make sense; at least to me they do. I know there are very valid exceptions to many grammatical rules. Most are intended to break a rule to create a stylized form of writing or to bring specific attention or emphasis to certain items. Is there a written, valid rule to sentence fragment exceptions? If so, what is that rule? If I'm going to be deliberately using a fragment or two, I want to be able to back up why with valid rules (or exceptions).

  • Answer:

    grammatically speaking, fragments are never correct. The times you can break that rule are in poems or when used as dialogue. In other words - if someone was speaking in a fragment, you could use that fragment in their dialogue (in quotes). Poetry has "poetic license" allowing you to break rules of spelling, grammar or language.
