This writer correctly uses an independent marker to separate two IC's. (two independent clauses). IC + comma + IM + comma + IC
Avoid weak words. Thing, good, and a lot are all poor choices. Use commas in a compound sentence.
In the sentence, "There is so many..." the writer does have agreement among the sentence elements with regard to singular and plural. What should the sentence read?
This writer has forgotten to use commas in compound sentences. The comma belongs after the first IC and before the conjunction. The writer also uses language that is too informal and weak.
This writer has a comma splice. This error happens when the writer uses a comma alone to join two IC's. Instead, the writer must use one of these: 1. A comma and a conjunction 2. A capital and a period or 3. A semi-colon ;
This writer has included some strong word choices, such as finality, inexplicable, and even mystifying. Do avoid the word thing (s).
This writer has forgotten when to use or not use capital letters. Such errors distract a reader. Also, the writer has a comma splice and a missing semi-colon. Note the pattern in the sentence beginning with, "Her parents..." The correct writing should have been "Her parents could lose these right; however, if the parents were ..."
A writer should not start a sentence with "Yes, because," "No, because...," "Bad because...," etc. The result is a sentence fragment.
This writer sure needs to check spelling. Words, such as were/where/we're are homonyms. They sound alike but have different spelling and uses. Choice should be choose. Also, many weak word choices lessen the writing's impact. Number six has a sentence fragment. What should it say?
Number three has a comma splice. Also, there are spelling errors in many places. Apostrophes are not used correctly. In fact, the phrase, "Peoples option's," should be, "People's options."
A writer should double check tricky words, such as refrigerated. Also, a comma splice after "buy" is a serious error. Finally, the writer forgot one can not start a sentence with a conjunction. The result is a sentence fragment.
This writer also has a comma splice. Heavens!! The "but" is not a correct way to begin a sentence. Everyone knows your "butt" does not appear first. : ) Finally, homonyms, such as whether/weather are to be watched carefully.
This sentence contains a serious error, subject verb disagreement. Benefits is plural. The verb "is" is singular. Benefits needs a plural verb. What is the correct way to write this?
Spelling error abound in this sample. Weak words also detract from the writer's purpose. The sentence fragment in number nine is a serious error.
Gracious me. So many errors, so little time. What's an English teacher to do?? My stars! I see a comma splice, a pronoun spelling error, and a run-on sentence.
Everyone= singular their = plural opinion = singular This is a serious agreement error. Yuk. I feel faint.
Do not use "like" when giving an example. Use "such as." Place a comma after the word preceding "such as" before giving the example(s). Once sentence is compound and needs a comma. Another sentence has a pronoun error. When referring to people, use the relative pronoun "who" not "that." That is used to refer to non living objects.
