 What part does this word modify? Literally thousands of incredibly talented individuals from more than a hundred disciplines have proudly worn the title “Imagineer.” Which does the word "literally" modify, only "thousands..." or both of "thousands..." and "more than a hundred..."? |

| Re: What part does this word modify? . Interesting question. I'll take the conservative view and say 'thousands' only. It's conceptually difficult for me to imagine 'literally... more than'. . |
