Question

Which sentence is punctuated correctly? She wrote me a letter: and I realized we had a problem. The question is—how can we best help our community? I plan to take three items: my journal, a pen, and a camera. His friends include a musician: an actor, and a sports star.

Answer 1

The sentence, “I plan to take three items: my journal, a pen, and a camera.” Is correct. If you would like explaining: the first one is incorrect because they shouldn’t have used a colon, it should have been a comma. The second one is incorrect because they shouldn’t have used a dash, but a colon. The fourth one is incorrect because the colon shouldn’t be there, but a comma. I hope this helps you!
