Original sentence: a shiny light and Bright stripes of a LIGHTHOUSE tell ships, “Careful – rocks!”
Here are two simple, correct ways to write it. Both start with a capital letter and use normal small letters for regular words.
- Simple version: The shiny light and bright stripes on a lighthouse tell ships, 'Careful—rocks!'
- Smoother version: A lighthouse's shiny light and bright stripes tell ships, 'Careful—rocks!'
Why these fixes? Very short steps:
- Start with a big letter: every sentence begins with a capital (A or The).
- Don’t use all caps: 'LIGHTHOUSE' should be 'lighthouse' (only capital if it starts the sentence).
- Use normal small letters inside words: 'Bright' should be 'bright' unless it starts the sentence.
- Say where the light and stripes are: 'on a lighthouse' or use 'a lighthouse's' to show they belong to it.
- Put the warning in quotes and use a dash or exclamation: 'Careful—rocks!' shows the lighthouse is warning the ships.
Good job noticing the sentence — you can read it now like a small warning from the lighthouse!
