To reach his goal of buying a new video game system each week, Kyle will need to save $5.
In three sentences, explain how the placement of the purple phrase changes the meaning of the sentence.
The purple sentences are "Kyle will need to save $5 each week", and "buying a new video game system each week".)

Answer 1

In the first sentence, the purple phrase indicates that Kyle needs to save $5 every week in order to reach his goal of buying a new video game system. In the second sentence, the purple phrase suggests that Kyle needs to save $5 each week to be able to buy a new video game system every week. By placing the purple phrase later in the sentence, it changes the frequency of saving and buying the video game system.
