To rewrite the sentence without the dangling or misplaced modifier, rephrase it as 'We watched the monkeys in the jungle while swinging through the trees.'
To rewrite the sentence without the dangling or misplaced modifier, you can rephrase it as:
We watched the monkeys in the jungle while swinging through the trees.
This rephrasing ensures that the subject 'we' is directly connected to the action of watching the monkeys and removes any misplacement or dangling of the modifier 'swinging through the trees'. To correct the sentence with the dangling modifier, we must make sure the modifier clearly refers to the subject performing the action. The original sentence, Swinging through the trees, we watched the monkeys in the jungle, incorrectly suggests that we were swinging through the trees. The revised sentence should specify that it is the monkeys doing the swinging. Therefore, the corrected sentence is: We watched the monkeys swinging through the trees in the jungle.
