Question

Which word corrects the capitalization error in the sentence? In the story, Huck Finn and Jim sailed a raft on the Mississippi river. A. Raft B. finn C. River

Answer 1

The answer is C. River. Names should always be capitalized but not random words. The word "river" is part of the name "Mississippi River"

Answer 2

"River" would correct the capitalization error in the sentence, since "Mississippi River" is a single entity--making it one proper noun that needs to be capitalized.
