anonymous · Answer

i was so confused, he answer is C actually

anonymous · Answer

you cant start a sentence with Otherwise

bokkie · Answer

C is correct. The sentence starting with otherwise is D and not C

anonymous · Answer

i do see this but you never start a sentence out with Otherwise. so they're both wrong, its just which is more wrong

yeah i know :/

texaschic101 · Answer

The more I research, I am gonna stick with the incorrect answer being D. All the others seem to make sense

anonymous · Answer

i would also say D... well thats what ive been saying but it seems like other answers also have their fault

texaschic101 · Answer

oh well....its the askers choice on which answer to pick. It's not our grade. All we can do is give our opinions.

adrynicoleb · Answer

Well if A is correct, B can't be correct...Or vice versa..I would say that it's between those two. >.<

anonymous · Answer

but once more, you cant start a sentence with otherwise (a conjunction)

adrynicoleb · Answer

Lol this is confusing...We are probably over-thinking it >.<

anonymous · Answer

b

texaschic101 · Answer

You can start a sentence with a conjunctive adverb, which is what " otherwise " is. Just look at the link I posted above

tanya123 · Answer

What's the error in D?

anonymous · Answer

D is incorrect because it is subordinate and 'otherwise' is a conjunction connecting the phrases.
