Original sentence:
The frilled lizard has a scaly, spiky frill, like a magic dragon.
Corrected sentence:
The frilled lizard has a scaly, spiky frill like a magic dragon.
Why this is better (easy steps):
- 'The frilled lizard' is who we are talking about.
- 'has' is the action word (it tells what the lizard has).
- 'a scaly, spiky frill' tells what the lizard has.
- 'like a magic dragon' tells how the frill looks. You do not need a comma before 'like' in this sentence, so removing the comma makes it flow better.
Another way to say it: The frilled lizard has a scaly, spiky frill that looks like a magic dragon's.
