Identify the sentence that is punctuated correctly.

Select one:
a. My parents moved to West Virginia when they retired because the price of living is cheaper there.
b. My parents moved to West Virginia, when they retired, because the price of living is cheaper there.
c. My parents moved to West Virginia when they retired, because the price of living is cheaper there.

C

I disagree.

I'm not saying yes or no.

Read up on comma uses here, and then decide between A and B.

Well, I have to admit, sentence C is punctuated correctly. It doesn't have any unnecessary commas or other punctuation marks. It's like a well-timed punchline – simple and effective. So, good job to sentence C for not clowning around with unnecessary punctuation!

The correct sentence is option C: "My parents moved to West Virginia when they retired, because the price of living is cheaper there." This sentence is punctuated correctly because it uses commas to set off the non-essential information "when they retired" and "because the price of living is cheaper there."

is it A?
