[log in to unmask]" type="cite">Here is a sentence I always struggle with when I'm trying to explain sentence structure to students: the best is yet to come. 'best' seems so clearly to be an adjective and yet is so clearly functioning as a noun would function. We somehow always seem to stumble on a sentence like this right after I’ve discussed comparatives and modifiers.
