The idea

Find the main verb and its subject. Mark any word that looks familiar and old. Identify the governing figure. Then ask what the passage is arguing. Four steps, in that order, and the first prevents most of the errors the band produces.

In practice

Verb, old words, figure, argument.

Where people slip

The first step prevents the most.
