How can you use anomalous as a subject-verb split?

You can't directly use "anomalous" as a subject in a subject-verb split because it's an adjective, not a noun.

Subject-verb splits require a noun phrase as the subject, and that subject is separated from its verb by other words. Here's how you could use "anomalous" in a sentence with a subject-verb split:

Example:

* The data, anomalous in its distribution, challenged the researchers' assumptions.

Here, "the data" is the subject, and "challenged" is the verb. The adjective phrase "anomalous in its distribution" modifies the subject and creates the split between the subject and verb.

Here are other ways to use "anomalous" in a subject-verb split:

* The results, anomalous and unexpected, demanded further investigation.

* His behavior, always anomalous, raised eyebrows among his colleagues.

In these examples, the adjective phrase modifies the subject, creating the split while maintaining a grammatically correct sentence.
