Answer to Question #314314 in English for Koi

Question

A Determine what principle/s in writing is/are being violated.

B. Rewrite the sentences.

She does not let poverty get in their way.

Answer 1

She does not let poverty get in her way is a clearly a run-on sentence in violation of punctuation. The proper structure to be used is either She does not let poverty get in her way or She does not let poverty get in the way.

The few grammatical errors in this sentence are the comma splice, "does not let poverty get" and "their way". In this situation, the proper construction should be: "She does not let poverty get in the way of what she wants."
