APEX A limiting modifier is a modifier that limits the meaning of another word in the sentence
A dangling modifier is a phrase or a word that modifies a word in a sentence that is not clearly stated. It is a modifier with nothing to modify.
When an opening modifier does not modify any word in the sentence, it is called a "dangling modifier." This occurs when the word or phrase intended to be modified is either missing or unclear, leading to confusion about what the modifier is referring to. To correct a dangling modifier, the sentence can be restructured to clearly link the modifier to the appropriate subject.

A dangling modifier is a word or phrase that is not clearly connected to the word it is intended to modify in a sentence, causing confusion or ambiguity. A misplaced modifier, on the other hand, is a word or phrase placed in a sentence so that it modifies the wrong word, leading to misinterpretation of the intended meaning.
To determine if a sentence has a misplaced modifier, I would need to see the specific sentence in question. A misplaced modifier occurs when a descriptive word or phrase is placed too far from the noun it modifies, leading to confusion or a misleading interpretation. If you provide the sentence, I can help you identify if it has a misplaced modifier.
