1. Comma splice 2.run on 3. Correct  4.fragment  5. Correct  The rest I'll post later if you don't get them

1. Danny listened to the man speak Spanish, he understood the language.

comma splice

The sentence has a comma splice because the two independent clauses that make the sentence (“Danny listened to the man speak Spanish” and “he understood the language”) are incorrectly joined by a comma. In order to fix this error, the two clauses should be joined by a semicolon or conjunction (like “and”)

2. The reporter wrote the award-winning story it was published in over two hundred newspapers.

run-on

A run-on sentence is a sentence consisting of two or more independent clauses that are not joined with a period, semicolon or conjunction (like and, but, or) as they should be, and that, instead, are incorrectly connected with a comma or are without any type of punctuation.

The sentence is an example of a run-on sentence because the two independent clauses (“The reporter wrote the award-winning story” and “it was published in over two hundred newspapers”) are missing a semicolon, a period or conjunction that joins them.

3. If you look through the window, you can see the mountain peaks in the distance.

Correct sentence

The conditional sentence is correct because it expresses a complete idea, and it correctly presents an “if clause”, followed by a comma and a “result clause.”

4. Although it was a more difficult test than the students had ever taken.

Fragment

Fragments are groups of words that look like a sentence because they begin with a capital letter and end with a punctuation mark like a period, but that in reality, are not sentences because they do not express a complete thought, like the statement from Option 4.

5. Eva is a quiet girl, but she is really a very funny person.

correct sentence

The sentence joins two independent clauses with the conjunction “but” and expresses a complete thought, therefore it is correct.

6. Susan sang a solo and accompanied herself on the piano.

Simple sentence

This is a simple sentence because it consists of one independent clause: it has a subject (Susan), a verb (In this case two: sand and accompanied) and expresses a complete idea on its own.

7. When Uncle Jack comes to town, we all have a good time.

complex sentence

This is a complex sentence because it is made up of one dependent clause (When Uncle Jack comes to town) and one independent clause (we all have a good time).

8. On our trip, we drove every afternoon until five o’clock.

simple sentence

This is a simple sentence because it consists of one independent clause: it has a subject (we), a verb (drove) and expresses a complete thought on its own.

9. Our neighbors are going to Canada on their vacation, but we will take our vacation at home.

Compound sentence

This is a compound sentence because it has two independent clauses (“Our neighbors are going to Canada on their vacation” and “we will take our vacation at home”) with related ideas, and joined by the coordinating conjunction “but.”

10. Naoki passed the test because he studied hard and understood the material.

Complex sentence

This is a complex sentence because it is made up of one independent clause (Naoki passed the test) and one dependent clause (because he studied hard and understood the material).

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
