Hi,
I have a question about making the verbs parallel with modifiers. Let me ask with an example:
I saw a car taken by the truck and had just three wheels left.
I saw a car that was taken by the truck and had just three wheel left.
I know that second question is actually shortened version of first one but:
1- It seems that in the first sentence "had "as a verb and "taken" as a modifier cannot be used as parallel.
2- It seems that in the second sentence "had" and "was" can be correctly considered parallel (even though it is preferable to use that before had too)
Now the question is which (or if any) of these sentences correct?
