I'm going to be downvoted because this isn't particularly on-topic, but nonetheless I'd like to suggest you try hyphenating phrases like this to make them easier to read, so you don't construct garden-path sentences where the correct parse exists but isn't obvious.

Thanks!




Being off-topic isn't necessarily cause for downvotes, and correcting English usage is often welcomed by people with a different native language.

Saying you're going to be downvoted for something on the other hand, is more likely to get people to downvote you.

In fact, some people will always downvote posts that have words to that effect.


Garden path sentences make pleasent experiences in parsing that accentuate the means to the end resulting communication. Smell the roses


I like garden path sentences in my Joyce, but keep them off HN, please.
