Each of the sentences below has an error in it. In some cases you need to add one word. In other cases, you need to change a word to another word to make the sentence correct.

1. Attached are the two reports - please examine and return them me by August 12.

2. I'm sorry you couldn't open the document - I have attach it again.

3. Please check the attached spreadsheet careful and let me know if you have any questions.

4. Sorry, I neglected send the attachments!

5. Here's a copy of the market analysis - what you think?

6. I'm returning your original document with my comments inserted with blue.

7. Here's the requested report - hope you find useful.

8. He sending the results of the engineering analysis as an attachment.

9. Hope you'll be capable to open the document this time round!

10. I be grateful if you could complete the attached survey and return it ASAP.

11. I attach the initial specifications report like promised.

12. Thanks for sending me the order history - I let you know what I think.

 

I suggest writing out the full sentences in your reply/practice, as it is valuable typing practice and will also make the words and patterns clearer and more memorable to you!

Best of luck,

~ Jason

Dongwan:

1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 12 are correct.

4, 7, 10, 11 are incorrect.

You can try again with these sentences, or wait until later when I post the full answer key.

Best wishes,

~ Jason
