	Misplaced Modifier
		Misplaced and dangling modifiers are phrases that are not located properly in relation to the words they modify.
		This modifier is misplaced because it modifies the desk.
		Modifiers dangle when they are not logically connected to the main part of the sentence.

		In a modifier stack the order in which modifiers are applied has an effect on the result.
		A great example of a situation in which positioning in the stack is important is the use of the subsurf modifier in combination with the mirror modifier as shown in Fig.
		Apply evaluates the modifier as if it were the first modifier in the stack and writes the results into the mesh, in effect "baking" the result of that modifier into the object.

	MODIFIER 25 – Update (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Modifier 57 indicates that this E/M service resulted in a decision to perform a major surgery within 24 hours of (or prior to) the major surgery with a 90 day global period.
		Modifier 25 is also appended to the E/M service code to indicate that a significant, separately identifiable E/M service and a minor procedure (the diagnostic anoscopy; 00 follow-up days) were performed during the same encounter.
		Adding a modifier 25 to an evaluation and management service code when a diagnostic exam has no global period assigned or is not subject to NCCI edits is viewed as incorrect billing.

	Grammatical modifier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In grammar, a modifier or qualifier is a word that modifies another word, a phrase, or a clause.
		Neither modifiers nor modifier phrases are usually required by a clause's syntax; they are optional, and help modify or limit the extent of the meaning of the word or phrase they modify.
		The adjective "green" in "a green tree" modifies and thus limits the meaning of the noun "a tree" in that it cannot be "a deciduous tree in winter", as the adverb "kindly" modifies the past tense of the verb "let" in "she kindly let me borrow her scissors".

	PHP: Pattern Modifiers - Manual
		If this modifier is set, whitespace data characters in the pattern are totally ignored except when escaped or inside a character class, and characters between an unescaped # outside a character class and the next newline character, inclusive, are also ignored.
		If this modifier is set, the pattern is forced to be "anchored", that is, it is constrained to match only at the start of the string which is being searched (the "subject string").
		Without this modifier, a dollar also matches immediately before the final character if it is a newline (but not before any other newlines).

		We will start with the nuclear modifier as this one is listed first on the HUD and has the most impact.
		The fourth modifier is the Explosion Velocity modifier.
		Setting all of the modifiers each time you want to use a new setting can be a very painstaking process since there are so many of them and each of them has its own key.

	The Modifier
		Modifiers are words, phrases, or clauses that provide description in sentences.
		Modifiers allow writers to take the picture that they have in their heads and transfer it accurately to the heads of their readers.
		Modifiers can be adjectives, adverbs, absolute phrases, infinitive phrases, participle phrases, prepositional phrases, adjective clauses, and adverb clauses.

	Misplaced and Dangling Modifiers
		The dangling modifier, a persistent and frequent grammatical problem in writing, is often (though not always) located at the beginning of a sentence.
		A dangling modifier is usually a phrase or an elliptical clause -- a dependent clause whose subject and verb are implied rather than expressed -- that functions as an adjective but does not modify any specific word in the sentence, or (worse) modifies the wrong word.
		Such introductory adjective phrases, because of their position, automatically modify the first noun or pronoun that follows the phrase -- in this case, "it." The connection in this case is illogical because "it" was not raised in Nova Scotia.

	Modifier Placement
		When a modifier improperly modifies something, it is called a "dangling modifier." This often happens with beginning participial phrases, making "dangling participles" an all too common phenomenon.
		SQUINTING MODIFIER: A third problem in modifier placement is described as a "squinting modifier." This is an unfortunate result of an adverb's ability to pop up almost anywhere in a sentence; structurally, the adverb may function fine, but its meaning can be obscure or ambiguous.
		Modifier Placement II Where to use "only" in a sentence is a moot question, one of the mootest questions in all rhetoric.

		Technically, the non-capturing group is a modifier span that does not change any modifiers.
		It is obvious that the modifier span does not create a backreference.
