Do you make these common grammatical mistakes?

8 / 10. I made a couple of silly mistakes!

Thank you for the answers!

In school, I was taught to use a comma before and if there were three or more things being illustrated (water, snow, and ice) but no comma if only two things were illustrated (snow and ice). In more recent years the oxford comma has been committed. I still believe it to be correct usage to include the comma before and with three or more items

#5 we were taught not to use a command before the word 'and' #7 also never see 3 quotation marks, weren't taught that.

#5 - the Oxford Comma, one is classic and one is modern, they are both correct.

10/10…Thanks for the Answers!🌹

7/10! Had to think and didn't do so well.

7/10 tricky.

john duckett, The use of the Oxford is widely accepted as correct. It is not a U.S. thing. Sometimes, it is a matter of clarity.

Jean Fox, Three are used with a quote within a quote, if the inner quote ends the sentence.

Jean Fox, yup. i agree

Pat Wells, in Australia, the correct way to indicate conversation is to use a single inverted comma at each end of the sentence. Almost nobody does, but the rule changed here around 35 years ago. When people tell me I’m wrong, I simply point out that on a standard keyboard, the single inverted comma doesn’t require the use of the shift key, whereas the double inverted commas do. PS: I’m a retired medical typist and grammar Nazi.😊

Jean Fox, Three quotations are used when there is a quote within a quote and the secondary quote ends the sentence. "quote,'speaking quote.'"

Good quiz that took some thought on the part of the writer. Number six should read, ". . .workers' hours." Number seven is a BIG mess. It should read: He recalled that she came in yelling, "Who are you?"

No 7 is wrong. You NEVER use 3 quotation marks!
