Is there anything wrong with this sentence? 10 points!!??

Question

The sentence "A pillar standing tall and erect symbolizing the strong foundation. A concept of blue elicit a simple yet elegant sense surrounding the area." Is there anything wrong with this sentence? please amend to the BEST you can, 10 points!!!

Answer 1

The first sentence is not a sentence. It is a fragment. Ditto the second one.

Change to: A pillar standing tall and erect symbolizes the strong foundation.

Change to: A concept of blue elicits a simple, yet elegant sense surrounding the area.

Or, you could say: A pillar was standing tall and erect symbolizing the strong foundation.

Answer 2

Well the first "sentence" is a fragment. Try this: A pillar standing tall and erect symbolizes the strong foundation, a concept of blue elicit, a simple yet elegant sense, surrounding the area.

Answer 3

Ok- the first one:

A pillar standing tall and erect symbolizing the strong foundation. (This is a fragment. It is not a whole sentence, only the first part of one... so there should either be something else to the end to make it a complete sentence, or it should be something like this- A pillar that stands tall and erect sybolizes the strong foundation.)

The 2nd sentence:
A concept of blue elicit a simple yet elegant sense surrounding the area. (this sentence doesn't have correct subject-verb agreement. It should be-
A concept of blue elicits a simple yet elegant sense surrounding the area. or Concepts of blue elicit a simple elegant sense surrounding the area.)

Answer 4

A pillar standing tall and erect symbolizED the strong foundation.

A concept of blue elicitS a simple<,> yet elegant<,> sense surrounding the area.

THIS IS A STUPID SENTENCE; "THE CONCEPT OF BLUE EVOKES A SIMPLE, YET ELEGANT, SENSE SURROUNDING THE AREA" IS THE BEST I CAN COME UP WITH WITHOUT CHANGING THE WORDS AND POSSIBLY THE MEANING.

Answer 5

"A pillar, standing tall and erect, symbolizing the strong foundation. A concept of blue, elicit a simple, yet elegant sense, surrounding the area."

Answer 6

Well, I am not exactly a studious person and in fact I am just 13 so I hope that my response would be acceptable to you.Judging by the repose of the question, my first impression would be emphasising on clarity. Though the sentence is free from mistakes, I have to say that the sentence is suffering from the lacunae of description. I would ultimately recommend this: The pillar,synthesized by human magnificence is emblamatic of a potent combination of a well established creation. Along with that, the concept of blue which the monumental structure embodies, denote a clear sense of serenity, vanquishing the melancholic vibe of fog around the area.

Answer 7

first of all, it's two sentences. the first could be a sentence fragment, but it could also merely be a description, depending on context. in the second sentence, you'd want to add an, "s", to, "elicit", for it to make any semblence of sense... which it barely does. perhaps you mean to say, "the blue elicits a simple yet elegant feeling, in the area.", but i can hardly say.

Answer 8

Maybe "elegant OF surrounding area"?

Answer 9

Very Nice but I think yet needs a comma after or before the word yet
