Two steps forward, one step back

I'm taking the time to go back and review a couple of chapters that I didn't grasp too well ~ Chapters 28 and 29.

As I mentioned before, there was A LOT to absorb in these two chapters. On top of that, these theories were not cut into marble. There are a lot of variables that can occur. Like words ending in the ANS sound; as in guidance, inheritance and relevance. Sometimes you add the ANS with the last syllable and consonant: GAOI/DANS, IN/HERT/TANS, and REL/VANS and sometimes you tack on just the NS if you can fit it in at the end of the word, DE/FAOINS (defiance), KOM/PLAOINS (compliance) and PUR/SAOUNS (pursuance). I know this should confuse me, but it does.

Study, study, study.
