Hi, can you tell which possibility is right ?
"Can you read?" Mary said, ... to the notice.
a) pointing angrily
b) and pointed angry
c) angrily pointed
d) and angrily pointing
Thanks
It could not be c with and, it has comma... :D
The prescription against using 'and' after a comma is ridiculous. And so is the one against starting a sentence with 'And'.The sentence
is perfectly grammatical."Can you read?" Mary said, and pointed angrily to the notice.
b
PS English Grammar and Punctuation: scroll down to the section on the comma.
