Question

How would you rewrite this sentence to correct the problem with the modifier? The broken teacher’s car sat In the parking lot while she waited for a tow truck

Answer 1

"The broken teacher’s car sat In the parking lot while she waited for a tow truck."

It reads as it the teacher is broken. There could also be an issue with the antecedent for "she" — Who/What is "she"?

Fix the sentence and post it. I'll check it for you.

Answer 2

The teacher’s broken car sat in the parking lot while she waited for a tow truck.
