The appended modifier (уточнение)

§ 191. Another way of sentence extension, but based on syntactical parallelism or doubling, isan appended modifier, which usually is parenthetic and follows the headword as an afterthought. It is a dependent part, which can refer to practically any part of the sentence and answer the same question, but in a fuller and more detailed way, narrowing or particularizing the notion, expressed by the headword. Therefore the headword is usually more general in meaning than the appended part; very often it is a pronoun, made explicit by the following nouns.

They were alike,his father and he.

Being a dependent part of the sentence, the appended modifier still cannot be opposed either to the main, or to secondary parts of the sentence. Its dependence also accounts for the reason why the appended part cannot be considered as homogeneous with the headword. Besides they are very often morphologically inacceptable in the structure of the sentence:

Her face was very pale -a greyish pallor.

His daily trips were really very easy -about a mile and a half.

There was very little to do -parading with the Company inspection, a little drill, orderly officers
