Question

The sentence below includes which of the following common grammatical errors?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is "Comma Splice"

Explanation:

A "comma splice" is a type of grammar mistake and it occurs when two independant clauses are joined by a comma instead of a conjunction.

A way to fix the "comma splice" is to replace the comma by a conjunction, a semicolon or a subordinating clause.

In this case, there are two independant clauses "Jessica left the farm quickly" and " she arrived at the school an hour later." The comma between the two sentences is not strong enough to join the sentences. An alternative is:

Jessica left the farm quickly; she arrived at the school an hour later. (Use semicolon)

Answer 2

I'm sure it's not a run-on sentence and it's not a subject/verb agreement so its Either comma splice or sentence fragmant. I think its comma splice
