Sentence errors to avoid– Sentence fragments (1), by Ruth Oji

WRITING is a thing. It demands precision and attention to details for you to get it right. Many people hold back from writing because they feel that they always make mistakes in connection with sentence construction, which is what writing is largely about.

We saw the Akintunji’s new house, a mansion at Banana Island. The community leaders found a stolen vehicle. Parked close to the community school. Little children happily walked to school, flaunting their new school bags. Conversely, the second phrase which is fragmented is a non-restrictive participial phrase and as such is not too relevant to the meaning of the sentence. When we put a comma before a phrase in this way, it suggests that we can do without that bit of information and the sentence would still convey the complete thought. So, take a look again at our second example.
