Nice job Dan!
In the spirit of eating my own dogfood I've made a start on a Parts of Speech
page.

I was thinking your Gerund sidebar could slot in there?

But one thing I would like to ask is that we present a definition both
accessible *and* comprehensive. That is our only option, if
we really want to create a primary reference (so one doesn't have to don't have
to "fall back" onto the official DoJ if he doesn't
want to).

I struggled a bit with this on the parts of speech page. I feel that somehow we
need to present the most important stuff without intimidating new users with
the gory details (e.g. Frames, k-cells ...), until they are ready for them.
With judicious use of linking to separate pages that deal with such issues,
perhaps that will be possible.
