the following sentence or group of sentences contains either fragments or run-ons. Correct them. There is more than one possible acceptable way to correct them. I don't like to listen to that group. Because they sound like nothing but loud noise.

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Do you know what's wrong with the first sentence?

OpenStudy (surryyy):

this is my correction is it correct? I don't like to listen to that group, they sound like nothing but loud noise.

OpenStudy (petiteme):

That's correct ^_^

OpenStudy (surryyy):

thank you!

OpenStudy (petiteme):

Welcome :)

OpenStudy (surryyy):

i have some more that i am not sure of..can u help?

OpenStudy (jademc01):

Wait, that is not correct. You can't use a comma after that because it doesn't make the sentence complete. Here is a better example: I don't like to listen to that group; they sound like nothing but loud noise. Instead of a comma, use a semi colon.

OpenStudy (surryyy):

oh ok. tysm!

OpenStudy (jademc01):

Or you can leave the semicolon out and say: I don't like to listen to that group because they sound like nothing but bad music. Either example should work :-).

OpenStudy (jademc01):

Vw :-)
