Read each sentence and look at the underlined words. Which sentence shows the underlined word spelled correctly?
A
They'r looking forward to the party.
B
Their looking forward to the party.
C
There looking forward to the party.
D
They're looking forward to the party.
D
They're looking forward to the party.
The sentence that shows the underlined word spelled correctly is option D: "They're looking forward to the party."
To determine which sentence shows the underlined word spelled correctly, we need to examine the underlined word in each sentence. The underlined word is "They're."
Now, let's look at each sentence:
A. "They'r looking forward to the party." The underlined word should be "They're," which is a contraction of "They are." This sentence does not show the underlined word spelled correctly.
B. "Their looking forward to the party." The underlined word should be "They're," not "Their." "Their" indicates possession, not the contraction we are looking for. This sentence does not show the underlined word spelled correctly.
C. "There looking forward to the party." The underlined word should be "They're," not "There." "There" refers to a location or is used as an introductory word. This sentence does not show the underlined word spelled correctly.
D. "They're looking forward to the party." The underlined word is spelled correctly. "They're" is the appropriate contraction for "They are."
Therefore, the correct sentence that shows the underlined word spelled correctly is Sentence D: "They're looking forward to the party."
