I am exploring"as"-modifier. In this question, I am using the as-modifier of a noun phrase near the beginning of a sentence. I have two as-clause sentences here:
1. "The law as it currently exists does not affect this school."
2. "The law as it applies to education curriculums does not affect this school."
In the first sentence, "as it currently exists" translates loosely to "in its current form". So, the first sentence loosely means:
"The law in its current form does not affect this school."
For the second sentence, I don't know what "as it applies to education curriculums" translate to.
1. "The law as it currently exists does not affect this school."
2. "The law as it applies to education curriculums does not affect this school."
