Day 1: Use the rhetorical subject as the grammatical subject.

Every complete sentence needs a subject. The subject is the Thing, Idea, Person, or Place (TIPP) that “does” the main verb. Consider the sentence “Tom loves Julie.” The main verb here is “loves,” and the subject is “Tom.”

Another name for the subject of a sentence is grammatical subject. In the previous example, “Tom” is the grammatical subject because “Tom” is the subject of the sentence.

Sometimes, though, the doer of the main action is not the grammatical subject. Consider this sentence:

“Finding a solution is our greatest concern.”

Here, “Finding a solution” is the grammatical subject of “is.”

However, we need to ask, “What’s the action being described by this sentence?” The main action is finding a solution. Then we ask, “Who is doing this action?” The answer is “We are.” “We,” therefore, is the rhetorical subject. The TIPP that does the main action is the rhetorical subject, whether or not it is the grammatical subject.

For clear and effective writing, the rhetorical subject should be used as the grammatical subject. Based on this, the example sentence can be revised as follows:

“We are most concerned with finding a solution.”
