Question

On a cloudy day, however, it
A. On a cloudy day however it
B. On a cloudy day however, it
C. On, a cloudy day, however it
D. No change

Answer 1

The correct option is B. On a cloudy day however, it.

The word "however" is being used as a conjunctive adverb here, indicating a contrast to a previous thought or statement. It should be preceded by a comma to separate it from the preceding clause and followed by a comma to set off the contrasting idea it introduces.

So the corrected sentence would read: "On a cloudy day, however, it..."
