Question

Remember that a dash is used to show an abrupt break or change in thought or to set off a summary statement or an interrupting idea. An ellipsis is used to show an incomplete thought trailing off, a longer-than-usual pause in speech, or hesitation in speech. In each item, identify the change needed, if any, so that the sentence uses punctuation correctly. If a sentence is correct as is, choose "No changes are needed."

Answer 1

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I provided examples where an ellipsis is used in a sentence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some sentence examples with the omission (ellipsis application) bolded:

1. Last year our school was invited to five competitions, however, in John's school they were invited to only three... (omission of 'competitions')

2. I never wanted to own many vehicles, but Sarah wanted to own more than five... (omission of 'vehicles')
