Which sentence has correct punctuation?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. My sister, who lives in Ramallah, teaches mathematics.
- Step 1: 'Who lives in Ramallah' is extra, non-essential information. Step 2. Extra information inside a sentence is set off by a pair of commas. Answer: My sister, who lives in Ramallah, teaches mathematics. Why not the others: the others have one comma or commas in the wrong place.
