Grammar
add 'the'
A book I have been reading said that :?He is sleeping with leaning against a fence (X)?It's because both sleeping and leaning are verbal expressions.
Then, if I embede 'the' before leaning to make 'verbal' into 'nominal', is it to be right that : He is sleeping with the leaning against a fence (?)
