Thanks for getting back to me, Tdol.

This diagram has been on different URL's - when I first set up the website, my programming skills were not that good. I set up a second website while leaving the original while I transferred the commentary into links, which was originally on the top, bottom and sides of the diagram.

Actually, I'm not sure if I should change the URL again. The diagram started as just gerunds and infinitives, then became the catenatives. For most of the diagrams existence it has been titled, "Venn Diagram of the English Catenatives." I changed the title to "Venn Diagram of English Verb Patterns," because it more acurately describes the diagram as it has developed.

As far as I know, however, you have not linked to the diagram before. I tried to link to http://www.usingenglish.com/links/La...stics/Modality, but it was a dead link. The post that you replied to was my first link to the forum, but I would be happy for you to do so, although many of the links are still under construction. Any help particularly with the sections that I mentioned before would be appreciated.

As for the introduction, I have in fact provided an overview of the diagram which you can read by clicking the yin yang symbol. I appreciate, though, that I have not indicated this clearly.
