Hello all.
I am reading "Most Common Errors in English Usage" by Paul Brians and the following sentence confused me;
It is no longer common to say things like “I am persuaded that you are an illiterate fool,” but even this usage is not in itself wrong.
What did the author mean by in itself? Is not the sentence correct even without in itself?
Thank you.
