I’m going to break down the following sentence into parts:
You can break the sentence about into two parts. I think the parts are called clauses:
- “If you can’t tell when you’re doing something right or wrong,”
- “then you can’t practice it since you wouldn’t know what actions to practice.”
I think this can help with understanding the sentence. You could focus on the first part and see how the second part makes sense. You can see the second part as a goal and the first part kinda like a plan. If you want to practice then it’ll be good to be able to do the first part. You can also see the if and then structure of the sentence. I think that tells you what to expect from the sentence. You can figure out the if part is so you can know the then part.
The second part can let the reader connect the dots to why their practice isn’t going well. If they learn about the first part then they can be more successful I think. They could also probably see that practice isn’t just doing something over and over again. There’s more to it.
