28. Which word is NOT USED CORRECTLY in the sentence: They're going to the mall to pick up their uniforms for their coach?
Answer: D
There is NOT USED CORRECTLY in the sentence.
The word "there" is used incorrectly in the sentence, as the correct contraction "they're" should be used instead to indicate "they are."
A) Their
"Their" is used correctly in the sentence as it indicates possession, referring to the uniforms belonging to the individuals going to the mall.
B) Going
"Going" is also used correctly in the sentence, indicating the action of the subject as they head to the mall.
C) They're
"They're" is correctly used in the sentence as a contraction of "they are," which fits the context of the assertion about the individuals heading to the mall.
D) There
"There" is used incorrectly in the sentence because it is an adverb indicating a place, which does not fit the intended meaning. The correct form should be "they're" to express the action of the individuals.
Conclusion
The correct answer is "there" because it fails to convey the intended meaning of the sentence, which is about the individuals going to the mall. All other options—"their," "going," and "they're"—are utilized correctly within the context, demonstrating proper grammar and meaning.
