Let’s fix the sentence so it sounds clear and correct.
Original: Like us, dolphins surf waves for fun.
Steps to fix it:
- Subject focus: The sentence should compare dolphins to us. Move the noun that is being compared (dolphins) to after like or adjust the phrase so it’s clear who is being talked about.
- Comma use: A comma after Like us is optional when starting the sentence, but it can help readability. If you start with Like us, you usually follow with a comma: Like us, dolphins surf waves for fun.
- Idea order: If you want the sentence to sound like a statement about dolphins, you can say: Dolphins surf waves for fun, like us.
- Clear version: A simple, clear version is Dolphins surf waves for fun, like us.
Answer (two good options):
- Like us, dolphins surf waves for fun. (This keeps the comparison at the start.)
- Dolphins surf waves for fun, like us. (This puts the topic first, then the comparison.)
Both sentences are correct. Choose the one you like best!
