    flo reacted to + azdr0710 in Sentence Construction/Grammar Question   
    though definitely not an expert, I'm often a stickler for spelling and grammar and get upset at what often appear to be un-proofed computer-generated news reports with horrible continuity/grammar/construction.....(but please excuse my very casual style here in the forum!......long story on that!)...... 
    posting this now because of this I just read:
    Family owned Mexican restaurant La Fonda Del Sol, closed its Shea Boulevard and 72nd Street location to move to 10155 E. Vía Linda in Scottsdale. The owners of EthioAfrican had planned to take over the space, however, according to the owner, plans fell through.
    1.  a hyphen is needed between "family" and "owned" - correct?
    2.  there is no need for a comma after "Del Sol" - correct?
    3.  there should be a new sentence after "the space" since the use of "however" is very awkward and incorrect as is - correct?... (this misuse of "however" is very common and frustrating)....thanks for your thoughts
