A neighborhood yard sale
The text, mistakes revealed
Here is the text as players saw it, with its 4 mistakes highlighted and corrected.
My mother and I woke up very early on Saturday to prepare for our neighborhood yard sale. We carefully carried three heavy folding tables out of the garage and into the front yard. The fresh morning air felt quite cold against our sleepy faces while we arranged the items. We placed alota lot of old books, vintage toys, and extra kitchen tools on the green grass. Our friendly neighbor walked over from his adressaddress across the street to see what we had. He smiled warmly at us and quickly bought a beautiful green glass lamp for his wooden desk. He definitlydefinitely loved the bright color of that old lamp and paid for it right away. We were so glad to see theretheir happy faces as more people arrived all morning long.
- → mistake, then its correction
The traps in this round
-
alot →a lot
The expression 'a lot' is always written as two separate words.
-
adress →address
The word 'address' is spelled with a double 'd' and a double 's'.
-
definitly →definitely
The word 'definitely' contains 'finite', so remember the 'e'.
-
there →their
Use 'their' to show possession, meaning it belongs to them.
