Which one of the following sentences is grammatically correct?

Question

Although Washington was the founder of the country Lincoin was the preserver.
Our apple trees have grown amazingly well you ought to see them
Mr. Hanson is out of town, however, we expect him back next week.
There is little we can do to help, for he is too stubborn

Answer 1

the last one..

Answer 2

The correct punctuation is as follows:

* Although Washington was the founder of the country, Lincoln was the preserver.

* Our apple trees have grown amazingly well. You ought to see them.

* Mr. Hanson is out of town; however, we expect him back next week.

* There is little we can do to help, for he is too stubborn.

Except for the missing period at the end of sentence four, which I don't think was intentionally, this sentence would have been correct.

Answer 3

A couple of the answers above came within one sentence of giving you the correct answer.

The last sentence is correct. You have two independent clauses connected by a coordinating conjunction ("for") with the comma being correctly placed at the end of the first independent clause. The result is a correctly worded compound sentence. (There is no grammatical need for "that" as one person implied.)

Problems with the other sentences (other than misspellings, which aren't grammatical mistakes):

The first sentence begins with a long dependent clause ending with the word "country." A comma should be placed after "country" to separate the dependent clause from the main clause.

The second sentence is a fused sentence. You have two dependent clauses "fused" together. The break should come between "well" and "you." You could make this into two separate sentences by putting a period after "well" and starting a new sentence at "you." You could also make it into one correct sentence in either of two ways. First, you could simply put a semicolon after "well." (In this case, you might or might not want to put a conjunctive adverb, such as "therefore," after the semicolon.) Second, you could put a comma after "well" and then add a coordinating conjunction. For instance: "Our apple trees have grown amazingly well, so you ought to see them."

In the third sentence, the comma after "town" is an example of a comma splice. You should either replace the comma with a semicolon or replace it with a period and begin a new sentence with "however."

Answer 4

None of them. They would each correctly be written thusly:

Although Washington was teh founder of the country, Lincoln was its preserver.

Our apples have grown amazingly well; you ought to see them.

Mr. Hanson is out of town; however, we expect him back next week.

There is little that we can do to help, for he is too stubborn.

Answer 5

Although Washington was the founder of the country Lincoin was the preserver.

First one

Answer 6

In the first sentence, Lincoln is spelt wrongly and the coma after "country" is missing.
The second sentence requires either a full stop or a semicolon after "well". A full stop should be added after the "them".
The coma after however is unnecessary in the third sentence.
There should be no coma in the fourth sentence and a full stop should be added.
Therefore, none of the above sentences is truly grammatically correct, however the third one is the closest.

Answer 7

The first.
