LESSON IV--CHANGE ARTICLES
”To enable us to avoid the too frequent repetition of the same word”--_Bucke's Gr_, p, 52
[FORMULE--Not proper, because the article _the_ is used to li of ”repetition,” or ”too frequent repetition,” where _a_ would better suit the sense But, according to a principle on page 225th, ”The articles can seldoross impropriety; and either is of course to be preferred to the other, as it better suits the sense” Therefore, ”_the_” should be _a_, which, in this instance, ought to be placed after the adjective; thus, ”To enable us to avoid _too frequent a repetition_ of the same word”]
