Stacy got to go on a vacation to the beach but it rained every day she was there.

Question

What should the writer do to correct this sentence?

Add a comma after "day"

The sentence is correct

Change "there" to "their"

Answer 1

Adding a comma after "day" would put a break in the sentence at a part where it doesn't make sense to have a break. A comma would make sense after the word "beach" though, as the comma would then be separating two complete ideas.

"There" is in reference to place (the beach, in this case), so "there" is the correct word. "Their" refers to somebody having something, like "their vacation" or "their beach."

So the remaining choice is the answer. This sentence is correct.

Answer 2

To clarify:

Commas go in between independent clauses, so if there was any place in the sentence one would put a comma, it would be after the word "beach"

-Stacey got to go on vacation to the beach, but it rained every day she was there.

"There" signifies a location or a call to attention, "their" signifies ownership, and they're is a contraction of "they" and "are"

examples:

-Look over there!

-Their cat has orange fur.

-They're about to be hit by that bus.
