What is "control"?
Control refers to a grammatical relationship in which one noun or pronoun determines the meaning of another related element in a sentence. This often involves a noun controlling a pronoun, so that the pronoun clearly refers back to the noun. For example, in the sentence "The teacher wants her students to succeed," the noun "teacher" controls the pronoun "her," showing that "her" refers to the teacher. Understanding control helps clarify how words relate to each other, making sentences easier to understand.
