I happen to like Noam Chomskey. I wish more people in America were aware of him. But ABC would never include him on the Sunday Morning bunch. So it goes!

Here's some guidelines for your "transitional marker" mystery.

I suppose, instead of Chomskey, you could try William Strunk:

As I understand it--and I'm using a memory going back 30 years or so--a transitional marker is something (can be a phrase or a word) like as follows: Therefore, I feel... "Therefore" would be a transitional marker. Or try this one: "In view of the foregoing..." "In view of the foregoing" would be a transitional marker. Now, go back and read my original phrase, and you will find, albeit a long transitional marker.

I suppose transitional markers, transitories or participial phrases--whatever are better described by--well, maybe we do need Chomeskey! (LOL)
