A comment on the English

Brian E.C1Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

Hi, just a comment on one of the English lines. I don’t think we can have “Annoyed by the elephant, a part of Guitri population referred the matter to the authorities”, and would recommend either “Annoyed by the elephant, a part of Guitri’s population referred the matter to the authorities” or “Annoyed by the elephant, a part of the Guitri population referred the matter to the authorities”.

This question relates to:French writing exercise "Ahmed the elephant : an Ivory Coast story"
