Question

Use the sentence from a narrative to answer the prompt:

Did, did I make the team?

In 1-2 sentences, explain why the writer should use an ellipsis instead of a comma.

Answer 1

thanks bot!

Answer 2

An ellipsis should be used to indicate a pause or a trailing off of thought, which is appropriate in this sentence to show the character's uncertainty and anticipation. A comma would not convey the same emotion.
