A comma splice is where two independent clauses (complete sentences) are joined together with a comma without also including a conjunction such as "and" or "but." Sentences B and D above both contain comma splices (the comma after "century" in B and the comma after "areas" in D). D is also missing a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence. The problem in sentence C is the commas surrounding the word "however." When the word "however is used to join two independent clauses like this, it should be preceded by a semicolon and followed by a comma. In this sentence, the semicolon belongs after the word "area." The word "however" begins the second independent clause. Thus, the only correct sentence above is A.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

Uncertain

Explanation:

You can see the narrator not very sure of things. He reminds himself that the smell of dirt was not to be feared, but since he needs to remind himself, we do sense that the narrator does fear the smell. This: "loathed these errands and doubted my ability to discern a peach from a pear in the dim light" is another sentence that shows uncertainty. In the end, some shadow that can't clearly be discerned is more more thing that contributes to the tone.
