	Respondido em 20/08/2021 12:23:09
	
Explicação:
Spatial adpositions can be divided into two main classes, namely directional and static ones. A directional adposition usually involves motion along a path over time, but can also denote a non-temporal path. Examples of directional adpositions include to, from, towards, into, along and through.
· Bob went to the store. (movement over time)
· A path into the woods. (non-temporal path)
· The fog extended from London to Paris. (non-temporal path)
A static adposition normally does not involve movement. Examples of these include at, in, on, beside, behind, under and above.
· Bob is at the store.

	My car broke down
	Respondido em 20/08/2021 12:55:05
	
Explicação:
SEPARABLE PHRASAL verbs can remain together or not when using an object that is a noun or noun phrase. The object can come before or after the particle.
· He paid back the debt. OR He paid the debt back.
· She looked up the word in her dictionary. OR She looked the word up in her dictionary.
· I picked up the book. OR  I picked the book up.
· He turned down my offer OR He turned my offer down.
Separable phrasal verbs MUST be separated when a pronoun is used:
· We ran it up by $50,000. (NOT We ran up it by $50,000)
· They bailed him out of the situation.(NOT They bailed out of the situation him)
· Frank paid it all back by the end of the month. (NOT Frank paid it all back by the end of the month)

          Questão
	
	
	In which alternative the phrasal verb is INSEPARABLE?
		
	
	He turned down my offer
	
	She looked up the word in her dictionary.
	 
	They splashed out on new office furniture.
	
	I picked up the book.
	
	He paid back the debt.
	Respondido em 20/08/2021 12:59:12
	
Explicação:
INSEPARABLE PHRASAL VERBS always remain together. It makes no difference if a noun or pronoun is used.
· He scraped by on only $800 a month for two years. NOT He scraped it by for two years.
· They splashed out on new officefurniture. NOT They splashed it out.
 
NOTE: 
a) All phrasal verbs containing more than one particle are inseparable.
· I've put up with the situation for more than two years.
 
b) Separable or inseparable phrasal verbs? Some dictionaries tell you when phrasal verbs are separable. If a dictionary writes "look (something) up", you know that the phrasal verb "look up" is separable, and you can say "look something up" and "look up something". It's a good idea to write "something/somebody" as appropriate in your vocabulary book when you learn a new phrasal verb, like this:
· get up
· break down
· put something/somebody off
· turn sthg/sby down
This tells you whether the verb needs a direct object (and where to put it).
 
TIP:  If you are not sure whether a phrasal verb is separable or inseparable, ALWAYS use a noun or nouns phrase and DO NOT separate. In this manner, you will always be correct!

	In which alternative the phrasal verb is INSEPARABLE?
		
	
	She looked up the word in her dictionary.
	
	He turned down my offer
	
	I picked up the book.
	
	He paid back the debt.
	 
	They splashed out on new office furniture.
	Respondido em 20/08/2021 14:15:33
	
Explicação:
INSEPARABLE PHRASAL VERBS always remain together. It makes no difference if a noun or pronoun is used.
· He scraped by on only $800 a month for two years. NOT He scraped it by for two years.
· They splashed out on new office furniture. NOT They splashed it out.
 
NOTE: 
a) All phrasal verbs containing more than one particle are inseparable.
· I've put up with the situation for more than two years.
 
b) Separable or inseparable phrasal verbs? Some dictionaries tell you when phrasal verbs are separable. If a dictionary writes "look (something) up", you know that the phrasal verb "look up" is separable, and you can say "look something up" and "look up something". It's a good idea to write "something/somebody" as appropriate in your vocabulary book when you learn a new phrasal verb, like this:
· get up
· break down
· put something/somebody off
· turn sthg/sby down
This tells you whether the verb needs a direct object (and where to put it).
 
TIP:  If you are not sure whether a phrasal verb is separable or inseparable, ALWAYS use a noun or nouns phrase and DO NOT separate. In this manner, you will always be correct!

Explicação:
COORDINATION (independent)
It uses coordinating conjunctions, conjunctive adverbs (with appropriate punctuation), or punctuation to combine short independent clauses into a single sentence. Coordination implies the balance of elements that are of equal semantic value in the sentence. (the coordination conjunctions are and, but, or, nor, for, yet, so)
· The football game has been postponed. We'll have to do something else.
· The football game has been postponed (independent clause); we'll have to do something else (independent clause).  - The semicolon is used for coordination.
· The football game has been postponed (independent clause), so we'll have to do something else (independent clause). ¿ SO is the coordinating conjunction.
SUBORDINATION (dependent) 
It uses subordinating conjunctions or relative pronouns to transform independent clauses (main clauses or ideas) into dependent clauses (subordinate clauses or ideas). Subordinate clauses are subordinate to (and thus hold less semantic value than) the independent clause(s) to which they are linked.
· The football game has been postponed. We will have to do something else.
· Because (subordinating conjunction) the football game has been postponed (dependent clause), we will have to do something else (independent clause)

 Mildred is eighty-seven and is very fragile now.
Andrew is handsome and is still single!
Vicky saw the storm coming and ran to the basement.
Stop pouting, and I'll give you some ice cream.
Mark is brave, and Alan is humorous.

· No one but Bert remembered to bring a notebook to class. (Everyone forgot to bring a notebook, with the exception of Bert.)
· Amanda never gets tough, but she still commands a lot of respect.
YET (exception) - The word YET functions sometimes as an adverb and has several meanings: in addition ("yet another cause of trouble" or "a simple yet noble woman"), even ("yet more expensive"), still ("he is yet a novice"), eventually ("they may yet win"), and so soon as now ("he's not here yet").
It also functions as a coordinating conjunction meaning something like "nevertheless" or "but."
· Jackson sings beautifully, yet he prefers to listen to others.
· Everyone complains about politics, yet no one does anything about it.
The word yet seems to carry an element of distinctiveness that but can seldom register.
· John plays basketball well, yet his favoritesport is badminton.
· The visitors complained loudly about the heat, yet they continued to play golf every day.
OR  (alternative)
1. To indicate a negative condition: We didn't know if we should risk driving through the deep water, or get out and swim.
2. To further elaborate on the first clause: English Mistakes Welcome is the best room on Paltalk, or so the regulars say.
3. To show choice or possibility: You can eat dinner early, or you can wait until midnight to eat.
4. To show a negative alternative without using an imperative (also see uses of and): Clyde must like to chat or he wouldn't keep fighting with his bad connection to stay on-line.
5. To suggest the inclusive combination of alternatives: We can take turns talking on the microphone, or we can just sit here and look at each other.
6. To suggest a restatement or correction of the first part of the sentence: Iowa is the best place in the world to live, or at least Annie tries to tell us that.
NOR (negative-contrast) -He is neither sane nor brilliant.
SO (consequence)  - At the ticket counter, Manny discovered he had forgotten our concert tickets, so we had to miss half the show while we went home to get them.
FOR (reason) - I hated listening to her talk, for she spoke in a high nasal voice.

Explicação:
Correlative conjunctions are used in pairs, in order to show the relationship between the ideas expressed in different parts of a sentence. For instance, in the following example, the expression either ... or is used to indicate that the ideas expressed in the two clauses represent two alternative choices of action.
· Either you should study harder, or you should take a different course.
· She led the team not only in statistics but also by virtue of her enthusiasm.

Explicação:
SO (consequence)
It is used to join clauses in a cause and effect relationship, and is similar in meaning to the subordinating conjunction "hence¿. Both words indicate an effect or result of something (consequence). However, "hence" has a more formal tone and subordinates one idea to the other, while "so" is more casual in tone and maintains equal importance of the clauses.
· At the ticket counter, Manny discovered he had forgotten our concert tickets, so we had to miss half the show while we went home to get them.
 
Be careful of the conjunction SO. Sometimes it can connect two independent clauses along with a comma, but sometimes it can't. For instance, in this sentence
· Soto is not the only Olympic athlete in his family, so are his brother, sister, and his Uncle Chet.
 
where the word so means "as well" or "in addition," most careful writers would use a semicolon between the two independent clauses.
· Soto is not the only Olympic athlete in his family; so are his brother, sister, and his Uncle Chet.

Explicação:
FOR (reason)
It is also used to join clauses in a cause and effect relationship and indicates a reason why (or cause) something happens. Thus, "for" is similar in meaning to "because," "as," or "since." However, "because," usually suggests that the reason is the most important part of the idea: "I got rid of my television because it was destroying my brain cells." "As" and "since" are usually used to show that the reason why something happened is not as important as the main clause, or that the reason is well-known already: "As you have a television and I don't, how about I come to your house to watch the NBA playoffs?" "For" is usually used to indicate that the reason is an afterthought, an idea that emerges once the first idea is stated.
· I hated listening to her talk, for she spoke in a high nasal voice.
· She refuses to admit she hates her boss, for she dislikes conflict with anyone.
 
Some people regard the conjunction for as rather highfalutin and literary, and it does tend to add a bit of weightiness to the text. Beginning a sentence with the conjunction "for" is probably not a good idea, except when you're singing "For he's a jolly good fellow. "For" has serious sequential implications and in its use the order of thoughts is more important than it is, say, with because or since. Its function is to introduce the reason for the preceding clause:
· John thought he had a good chance to get the job, for his father was on the company's board of trustees.
· Most of the visitors were happy just sitting around in the shade, for it had been a long, dusty journey on the train.

However, "because," usually suggests that the reason is the most important part of the idea: "I got rid of my television because it was destroying my brain cells." "As" and "since" are usually used to show that the reason why something happened is not as important as the main clause, or that the reason is well-known already: "As you have a television and I don't, how about I come to your house to watch the NBA playoffs?" "For" is usually used to indicate that the reason is an afterthought, an idea that emerges once the first idea is stated.
· I hated listening to her talk, for she spoke in a high nasal voice.
· She refuses to admit she hates her boss, for she dislikes conflict with anyone.
 
Some people regard the conjunction for as rather highfalutin and literary, and it does tend to add a bit of weightiness to the text. Beginning a sentence with the conjunction "for" is probably not a good idea, except when you're singing "For he's a jolly good fellow. "For" has serious sequential implications and in its use the order of thoughts is more important than it is, say, with because or since. Its function is to introduce the reason for the preceding clause:
· John thought he had a good chance to get the job, for his father was on the company's board of trustees.
· Most of the visitors were happy just sitting around in the shade, for it had been a long, dusty journey on the train.

Explicação:
Correlative conjunctions are used in pairs, in order to show the relationship between the ideas expressed in different parts of a sentence. For instance, in the following example, the expression either ... or is used to indicate that the ideas expressed in the two clauses represent two alternative choices of action.
· Either you should study harder, or you should take a different course.
· She led the team not only in statistics but also by virtue of her enthusiasm.
· Polonius said, "Neither a borrower nor a lender be."

Explicação:
SO (consequence)
It is used to join clauses in a cause and effect relationship, and is similar in meaning to the subordinating conjunction "hence¿. Both words indicate an effect or result of something (consequence). However, "hence" has a more formal tone and subordinates one idea to the other, while "so" is more casual in tone and maintains equal importance of the clauses.
· At the ticket counter, Manny discovered he had forgotten our concert tickets, so we had to miss half the show while we went home to get them.
 
Be careful of the conjunction SO. Sometimes it can connect two independent clauses along with a comma, but sometimes it can't. For instance, in this sentence
· Soto is not the only Olympic athlete in his family, so are his brother, sister, and his Uncle Chet.
 
where the word so means "as well" or "in addition," most careful writers would use a semicolon between the two independent clauses.
· Soto is not the only Olympic athlete in his family; so are his brother, sister, and his Uncle Chet.

Explicação:
YET (exception)
The word YET functions sometimes as an adverb and has several meanings: in addition ("yet another cause of trouble" or "a simple yet noble woman"), even ("yet more expensive"), still ("he is yet a novice"), eventually ("they may yet win"), and so soon as now ("he's not here yet").
 
It also functions as a coordinating conjunction meaning something like "nevertheless" or "but."
· Jackson sings beautifully, yet he prefers to listen to others.
· Everyone complains about politics, yet no one does anything about it.
· Anna sews much better than the tailor on First St., yet she's afraid to charge for her services.
 
The word yet seems to carry an element of distinctiveness that but can seldom register.
· John plays basketball well, yet his favorite sport is badminton.
· The visitors complained loudly about the heat, yet they continued to play golf every day.
 
In sentences such as the second one, above, the pronoun subject of the second clause ("they," in this case) is often left out. When that happens, the comma preceding the conjunction might also disappear:
· The visitors complained loudly yet continued to play golf every day.
 
Yet is sometimes combined with other conjunctions, but or and. It would not be unusual to see and yet in sentences like the ones above. This usage is acceptable.
· The tornado chaser was scared but yet calm as he drove closer to the center of the storm.

SO (consequence)
It is used to join clauses in a cause and effect relationship, and is similar in meaning to the subordinating conjunction "hence¿. Both words indicate an effect or result of something (consequence). However, "hence" has a more formal tone and subordinates one idea to the other, while "so" is more casual in tone and maintains equal importance of the clauses.
