Example Question #11 : Identifying Other Punctuation Errors
Select the underlined word or phrase that needs to be changed to make the sentence correct. Some sentences contain no error at all.
I was wondering if, after the fair, we could stop by the farmers market? No error
Possible Answers:
fair,
No error
market?
if,
stop by
Correct answer:
market?
Explanation:
In this sentence, the speaker is making a statement (“I am wondering”), not answering a question (“Am I wondering?”). Even though the sentence is expressing uncertainty, it is not an interrogative sentence and therefore should not end with a question mark. A period is the correct punctuation to use to end this sentence.
