Dear ESL Student,
Native English speakers make mistakes too! These sentences were modified from national magazines and advertisements in the USA. Can you find the grammatical error in each one?
1.If your food doesn't arrive hot and fresh to your door, we'll make it right or refund your money.
2.See less fine lines.
3.Read on for a healthy spread for your sandwich.
Answers:
1.The preposition "to" is not correct. To express location or place, use "at". The food will arrive fresh and hot at your door.
2.Less is incorrect. "Fewer" should be used with plural nouns. See fewer fine lines.
3.Only a living thing (plants, people or animals) can be healthy. Cream cheese, mayonnaise or any other sandwich spreads should be described as healthful. Read on for a healthful spread for your sandwich.
Much Continued ESL Success,
