Thank you so much for this helpful feedback! I really appreciate it!
same for me! just reached my half way point through version 1 curriculum. when should i make the switch? I don't want to hinder my progress or repeat things unnecessarily. Thanks!
Hi! Can someone please explain to me this from the above explanation?

After the “although” sentence, the author talks only about “placentals”.
→ this means “placentals” is the “SCOPE” of the argument.
→ meaning, we DO NOT want to include it into our lawgic.
hi - thank you for your helpful comment here. What does AC mean? I struggle also with include ctx as part of what I need to translate. I wasted 15 min on this question just to see if I could piece it together and I never was able to on my own.
Does anyone know of a good way to practice dissecting the different parts of an argument in a question stem? For example, J likes to highlight, circle, label P for premise & C for conclusion, call out context & referential phrases, key words like thus, therefore, etc. I feel like I need practice with this. Does anyone have any suggestions? Do you print out a bunch of questions and practice that by hand? Is that a helpful thing to do?
Thank you JY for your very first sentence response to this question. and oh my goodness, I needed that laugh! I definitely had that reaction and just simply gave up after taking more than 5 minutes of trying to wrap my mind around this question. Pat just showed up and ruined everything for me.
