cuppachino ɐddn...Mochapoints: 15208 | Teacher Score: 8612 (100%)The following 2 are classic "run on" sentences. i.e. 2 independent clauses joined with no conjunction, or spliced with a comma. The old man has short white hair and a grey mustache, he does not have long blue hair. A lot of men have no hair, they are bald. Solution options: 1. split into 2 independent sentences 2. use a semicolon instead of comma 3. use "and" / "but" to link the 2 clauses 4. use a semicolon, followed by "therefore" or "in fact" 5. use a colon (if the second clause clarifies the first) It's a minor form of grammatical error. The rest is all perfect, and particularly tidy. Submitted over a year agoSpelling: Proficiency: Grammar: Translate -

"My friend has long light brown curly hair." The customary word order for HAIR with a series of attributes: ► condition ► length ► waviness ► color Therefore, it should be rewritten as: My friend has long curly light brown hair. Other examples: fizzy dry long curly blonde hair oily shoulder-length wavy brown hair healthy shiny waist-length jet black hair Submitted over a year agoTranslate -
