Is it grammatical to use two verbs in participle clauses?
I did that in the two sentences above, but I am not sure whether that is allowed, that is I don't know whether I broke a grammar rule by doing that.

It appears they've chosen to use the abbreviated version of the official name (The Republic of Korea) to refer to what most of us, in the west at least, refer to as North Korea.

 

[Tarheel]

Yes, it was written that way.

In the chart, the country is written as Korea, Rep., with a comma, not a point.
