During the first half of the nineteenth century, immigrants to the United States were predominant from Western Europe, after the Civil War, however, new arrivals came mainly from Eastern an Southern Europe, as well as from Asia. Please, help me identify word that is not correct in above sentence. Thanks in advance! |

Hi Tryyourbest, I'd change a couple of words in that sentence, but more importantly, I'd change some of the punctuation, so that it's easier to make sense of it: "During the first half of the nineteenth century, immigrants to the United States came predominantly from western Europe. After the Civil War, however, new arrivals came mainly from Eastern and Southern Europe, as well as from Asia." _________________ Cheers m' dears! |
