Encore Quiz: Choose Correct Sentence Cheat Sheet

  1. Encore as a noun - An encore is the extra performance artists give when the crowd's applause won't quit. It's the grand finale gift for fans, not just a shout of "more!" from the audience. Encore definition
  2. Avoid comma splices - Don't join two independent thoughts with just a comma; it's like trying to dance two steps at once! Use a semicolon, conjunction, or split into sentences to keep your writing smooth. Common Grammar Errors (WLU)
  3. Subject‑verb agreement - Your verbs must match their subjects like perfect dance partners: singular goes with singular ("The cat purrs") and plural with plural ("The cats purr"). Keep the rhythm steady or your reader will trip over confused grammar. Common Grammar Errors (TAMU)
  4. "Its" vs. "It's" - Use its (no apostrophe) to show possession ("The robot lost its battery") and it's to mean "it is" or "it has" ("It's charging now"). A quick apostrophe check saves you from a paw-some mistake! Grammar Mistakes Guide
  5. Placement of modifiers - Stick descriptive words close to what they describe to avoid hilarious mix-ups: "Almost every day she drove her kids to school," not "She almost drove her kids every day." Keep the action and its modifier best friends. Grammar Mistakes Guide
  6. Consistent verb tense - Don't time‑travel in one sentence: if you start in the present ("She studies"), stay there ("and then she writes"). Mixing past and present is like watching a movie in reverse - confusing! Grammar Mistakes Guide
  7. "Affect" vs. "Effect" - Affect (verb) means to change ("The rain affects our plans"); effect (noun) is the result ("The rain had a big effect on our picnic"). A‑V and E‑N: simple code to keep you on track! Common Grammar Errors (WLU)
  8. Stop run‑on sentences - Don't cram clauses together like a packed concert crowd. Split thoughts with a period, semicolon, or conjunction: "He raised his glass. He made a toast." Let each idea stand out! Common Grammar Errors (WLU)
  9. There, their, they're - Three homophones, three meanings: there (place), their (possession), they're (they are). Nail it with "They're grabbing their coats over there." Easy to memorize, hard to forget! Common Grammatical Errors
  10. Mind your homonyms - Homonyms love to trick you: its vs. it's, your vs. you're, to vs. too. A quick double‑check turns grammar traps into confident writing wins! Common Grammar Errors (TAMU)
