Is there a parenthetical involved here?

Numerous of the ministers have resigned themselves. You can read all of the reasons for this.

A more logical ordering, clearly showing the parenthetical (subclass additional non-essential information) is:

ministers, among them Interior Minister Fouchet, had to resign too.

Is it acceptable to postpose a paragraph, like, ‘among them Bob Todd’, but not for long? Is this illogical but right?

Why went to the writer, who asked a question instead of answering, because’some words go beyond the sense of some word’. As OP keeps pointing out, I am not an expert. What do OP think of? My definition of ‘naive’ would include a negative (‘should know better’) connotation but the denotation need not carry that sense. I have no negative feelings. ‘Ignorant’, though basically meaning ‘not cognizant of some facts’, does carry a strong connotation of ‘barbaric’.

Quite right, if you use the term innocent here – most people would rapidly discount the ‘not guilty’ sense – because a lot of the senses it carries (see reference below) overlap pretty well with OP’s requirements In the words of the friend, “All words are infinitely polysemous – so you’ll never find the perfect fit, with no possibility of undesired connotations – and we won’t all totally agree on what those connotations are.”

innocent (adj.)

1. Uncorrupted by evil, malice, or wrongdoing; sinless: an innocent child.

2. A. Not guilty of specific crime or offense; legally blameless: was innocent of all charges. c. “In, allowed by, sanctioned by”; “lawful.” Within, lawful.

a. 2. b. 3. a. 3. a. 4. d. 5. a. 6. a. 7. b. 6. a. 9. a. 9. b. 9. a. 9. a. 9. a. 9. a. 9. a. 11. Not dangerous or harmful; innocent: an innocent prank. b. Candid; straightforward: a child’s innocent stare.

5. a. (a) American tourist wholly innocent of French.. b. Unaware: Until recently it was clear that she remained innocent of the complications she had caused.

6=6x. How do we get 6=6? Can a novel be deprived of literary merit or lacking in literary merit?

What is the answer of

a query on Wikipedia?

When there is no special emphasis, the rule of thumb often applies that a positive sentence has a negative tag and vice versa. This form may express confidence, or seek confirmation of the asker’s opinion or belief.

But she is French?

Does she speak French?

What are balanced tag questions?

Unbalanced tag questions feature both a positive statement with a positive tag or a negative statement with a negative tag; it has been estimated that in normal conversation to up to 40%-60% of tags are unbalanced. Unbalanced tag questions may be used for ironic or confrontational effects.

Do listen, will you?

I’m lazy, am I?

I refuse to spend a Sunday in your mother’s house! Jill: Oh you do, do you? I’ll have to update myself, we’ll see!

Patterns of negation can have regional variations. In North East Scotland, for example, Positive to Positive is used when no special effect is desired:

This pizza’s fine, is it? Note the following variations in the negation when the auxiliary is the I form of the copula: Germany (and Europe) and the Czech Republic.

(Standard English: This pizza’s delicious, isn’t it? I am Clever, aren’t I? Scotland/Northern Ireland: Clever amn’t I? Languages: nonstandard dialects: Clever, ain’t I?

How could I argue when a usage is “ungrammatical” until there is a specific grammar when you disagreed with a particular usage.

When I hear the words and phrases ‘grammatical according to say CGEL’ and ‘what my teacher wants’, the intersection will doubtless

be shaded grey.
