Answer: The type of error in the sentence provided is misplaced modifier.

Explanation: A misplaced modifier is a modifier that has been incorrectly separated from the word or phrase that it is modifying. Therefore, a sentence with a misplaced modifier lacks sense. In the sentence provided, <u>"When an old woman" is a misplaced modifier since it is incorrectly modifying the noun phrase "the boy".</u> Furthermore, <u>"When an old woman" has been separated from the phrase that should actually be modifying: "Mrs. Jones"</u>. In that way, the sentence lacks sense and sounds illogical.

Which sentence has the correct subject-verb agreement?
slava [35]
I would most definitely say the first one "does anyone hear the thunder?"
mostly because the other one does not make any sense at all it sounds ghetto "do anyone hear the thunder?" do you see the difference between does and do? so the first choice is the better choice.
i really hope i helped you out in some type of way :)))
