JAYA:OK--that's aphrase; now try the other two sentences.
WOOK JIN: You have changed the original independent clause into a dependent one--it needs to stay independent. You have added a good independent clause. Note that you need to write three sentences here;-)
JULIE:#1--good; #2--You have changed the original independent clause into a dependent one--it needs to stay independent; #3--good.
SAADAT:#1-- a dependent clause, not a phrase; #s 2 & 3--good!
