What correction should be made to this sentence - Both his wife Mrs Johnson and Mrs Jackie Kennedy were present when he was sworn in?
Both his wife Mrs Johnson and Mrs Jackie Kennedy were present when he was sworn in... The first thing is, who is his and he? The sentence is supposed to refer to 2 different men, but leaves the reader confused because pronouns are used rather than proper nouns. A pronoun should directly follow the proper noun which the pronoun represents.Second, the sentences confuses as to when-- before Kennedy's death, or after?Third, you shouldn't end a sentence with 'in'.Examples:(with Kennedy being sworn in)Running mate, Lyndon B. Johnson, his wife, and Mrs. Jackie Kennedy were present when John F. Kennedy was sworn into office.(with Johnson being sworn in, after Kennedy's death)Vice-President Lyndon B. Johnson, his wife, and Mrs. Jackie Kennedy were present when Lyndon B. Johnson was sworn into office as the President, after John F. Kennedy was assassinated.NOTE: Re-using proper names in a complex sentence avoids confusion of pronouns. Also, after saying "his wife", you don't need to say "Mrs. Johnson" because it is redundant, e.g. repeating yourself.
