+   ** Operate on logical text blocks with precision using text objects **
+
+  1. Practice word operations:
+     - Place cursor on any word in the line below
+     - Type `diw`{normal} to delete INNER word (word without surrounding space)
+     - Type `daw`{normal} to delete A WORD (including trailing whitespace)
+     - Try with other operators: `ciw`{normal} (change), `yiw`{normal} (yank),
+        `gqiw`{normal} (format)
+
+Practice on: "Vim's", (text_object), and 'powerful' words here.
+
+  2. Work with bracketed content:
+     - Put cursor inside any () {} [] <> pair below
+     - Type `di(`{normal} or `dib`{normal} (delete inner bracket)
+     - Type `da(`{normal} or `dab`{normal} (delete around brackets)
+     - Try same with `i"`{normal}/`a"`{normal} for quotes, `it`{normal}/`at`{normal}  for HTML/XML tags
+
+Test cases: {curly}, [square], <angle>, and "quoted" items.
+
+  3. Paragraph and sentence manipulation:
+     - Use `dip`{normal} to delete inner paragraph (cursor anywhere in paragraph)
+     - Use `vap`{normal} to visually select entire paragraph
+     - Try `das`{normal} to delete a sentence (works between .!? punctuation)
+
+  4. Advanced combinations:
+     - `ciwnew<ESC>`{normal} - Change current word to "new"
+     - `yss"<ESC>`{normal}   - Wrap entire line in quotes (vim-surround plugin style)
+     - `gUit`{normal}        - Uppercase inner HTML tag content
+     - `va"p`{normal}        - Select quoted text and paste over it

+ ** Use system clipboard and blackhole registers for advanced editing **
+
+ Note: Clipboard use requires a working clipboard provider for the current
+       windowing system on Linux. Check with `:checkhealth vim.provider`{vim}
+       and `:echo has('clipboard_working')`{vim}
+
+  1. Clipboard registers `+`{normal} and `*`{normal} :
+     - `"+y`{normal} - Yank to system clipboard (e.g. `"+yy`{normal} for current line)
+     - `"+p`{normal} - Paste from system clipboard
+     - `"*`{normal} is primary selection on X11 (middle-click), `"+`{normal} is clipboard
+
+Try: "+yy then paste into another application with Ctrl-V or Cmd+V
+
+  2. Blackhole register `_`{normal} discards text:
+     - `"_daw`{normal} - Delete word without saving to any register
+     - Useful when you don't want to overwrite your default `"`{normal} register
+     - Note this is using the "a Word" text object, introduced in a previous
+       lession
+     - `"_dd`{normal}  - Delete line without saving
+     - `"_dap`{normal} - Delete paragraph without saving
+     - Combine with counts: `3"_dw`{normal}
+
+Practice: "_diw on any word to delete it without affecting yank history
+
+  3. Combine with visual selections:
+     - Select text with V then `"+y`{normal}
+     - To paste from clipboard in insert mode: `<CTRL-R>+`{normal}
+     - Try opening another application and paste from clipboard
+
+  4. Remember:
+     - Clipboard registers work across different Vim instances
+     - Clipboard register is not always working
+     - Blackhole prevents accidental register overwrites
+     - Default `"`{normal} register is still available for normal yank/paste
+     - Named registers (a-z) remain private to each Vim session
+
+  5. Clipboard troubleshooting:
+     - Check support with `:echo has('clipboard_working')`{vim}
+     - 1 means available, 0 means not
+     - On Linux, may need xsel, xclip or wl-clipboard
+       (check `:checkhealth vim.provider`{vim} result)
