david dc3056ee4e books 10-11: full regeneration with the hardened pipeline
Converted, refined, and re-sliced both LLA tracks from the tape with the
tester-round rules (passage->DIALOGUE+REFERENCE splits, vocab on the first
teaching line, sentence-sized read-only cards, merged-beat detection with
best-of-two sampling, repair loop hard-gated on figure coverage).

Book 10 masters now include tape lessons 2C-4D — ten lessons of audio content
the earlier masters never shipped (they used only 1A-2B). All ten masters
lint clean, 100% cassette coverage on every taped lesson.

The object of a verb is usually a noun or a pronoun:
{I like basketball.} (noun)
The object of a verb can also be a **gerund**. A gerund is the -ing form of a verb, used as a noun:
{I like playing basketball.} (gerund phrase)
Certain verbs are often followed by gerunds — **start**, **begin**, **enjoy**, **mind**, **finish**, and **like**:
| | | | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mike | starts | moving | next week. |
| The boys | enjoy | playing | soccer. |
