are long and complex.

this rule: Keep it short.

The
word
order
of
a
simple
sentence
written
in
English
is
as
follows:

words
such

belong
in
the
'middle'

Most
problems
in
writing
are
caused
by
two
or
three
things:

sentence
is
often
much
too
long.
- One
clause
is
badly
tagged
on
after
another.
- The
sentence
starts
with
a
verb
or
object,
not
the
subject.
- It
starts
with
a
conjunction
('although',
'because').

solution
to
this
problem
is
worth

it
short.

it
simple.
