Are these sentences grammatically correct and do they have the same meaning?
Here we have a "how noun phrase:
It's strange how it works.
And It is acting as a Dummy Subject right? So I can do this:
How it works is strange.
But is it grammatical? It doesn't sound well in my native language.
Also does this sentence have the same meaning and is it correct:
It's strange the way it works // The way it works is strange
?
