Direct Object Subject Complement Object of a Preposition Subject Appositive Respondido em 09/08/2021 20:26:27 Explicação: Noun clauses can be used to name something when a single word isn't enough. It's also important to remember that these clauses are dependent clauses. A dependent clause is one that cannot stand by itself. If a dependent clause is placed alone, it forms a fragment, not a full sentence. An independent clause can act as a sentence by itself, but dependent clauses cannot. Noun clauses commonly begin with words such as how, that, what, whatever, when, where, whether, which, whichever, who, whoever, whom, whomever, and why. Noun clauses also act as objects of a preposition. • Harry is not the best provider of what Margie needs. • Josephine is not responsible for what Alex decided to do. • Allie is the owner of that blue car parked outside.

In the following noun clause, Paul Newman, who was a very famous movie actor, died many years ago, why is it necessary the use of commas? Because ´who was a very famous movie actor´ functions as the appositive. Noun clauses are nominals and can act as appositives. In that case, they may require commas if they are not essential to the meaning of the sentence.. Because appositive clauses do not ask for commas. Because we do not use commas with appositives, even if they are noun clauses. Because , in some cases, the noun being explained is too general without the appositive; the information is essential to the meaning of the sentence. When this is the case, do not place commas around the appositive. Because Paul Newman has already died, so the use of commas is unecessary. Respondido em 09/08/2021 20:33:54 Explicação: Noun clauses are nominals and can act as appositives. In that case, they may require commas if they are not essential to the meaning of the sentence.. Here, the words his original statement identify which statement is meant, so the noun clause provides information that is merely additional and not essential.

Choose the comment among the ones below which is INCORRECT. According to AZAR (1989), a clause is a group of related words containing a subject and a verb. Clauses can be either independent clauses (also called main clauses) or dependent clauses (also called subordinate clauses). A phrase is a group of related words that does not contain a subject-verb relationship, such as "in the morning" or "running down the street" or "having grown used to this harassment". Another term for dependent clause is subordinate clause: this means that the clause is subordinate to another element (the independent clause) and depends on that other element for its meaning. A clause is always considered as a full grammatical sentence. Respondido em 09/08/2021 20:36:57 Explicação: An independent clause (or main clause) contains both a subject and predicate, can stand alone as a sentence (a simple sentence), or be a part of a multi-clause sentence. Clauses well connected are usually nicely balanced. That is to say: some clauses can stand by themselves, as separate sentences, and some can't. 8 Questão In which of the following sentences is it possible to omit the word ´that´?

A main clause is also known as an independent clause, a superordinate clause, or a base clause. 6 Questão A clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb. Some clauses are independent, others are dependent. Dependent clauses act as adjectives, adverbs or nouns. A dependent clause that acts as a noun is called a noun clause. In the following noun clause, Paul Newman, who was a very famous movie actor, died many years ago, why is it necessary the use of commas? Because ´who was a very famous movie actor´ functions as the appositive. Noun clauses are nominals and can act as appositives. In that case, they may require commas if they are not essential to the meaning of the sentence.. Because appositive clauses do not ask for commas. Because , in some cases, the noun being explained is too general without the appositive; the information is essential to the meaning of the sentence. When this is the case, do not place commas around the appositive. Because we do not use commas with appositives, even if they are noun clauses. Because Paul Newman has already died, so the use of commas is unecessary. Respondido em 09/08/2021 21:07:59 Explicação: Noun clauses are nominals and can act as appositives. In that case, they may require commas if they are not essential to the meaning of the sentence.. Here, the words his original statement identify which statement is meant, so the noun clause provides information that is merely additional and not essential. 7 Questão Read the text below: Since their expulsion from Spain in 1492, Sephardic Jews have managed to maintain their Jewish faith and Spanish group identity and have developed a uniquely Judeo- Spanish culture wherever they settled.

However, an adjective can also come in the form of an adjective clause. Read the comments below and choose the appropriate one. English has a zero relative pronoun ¿ that is, the relative pronoun is implied and not explicitly written or spoken; it is 'unvoiced'. This measure is used in nonrestrictive relative clauses (only) as an alternative to voicing that, which or who, whom, etc. in such clauses. Non-restrictive or non-essential adjective clauses simply gives extra information about the adjective. This additional information can be omitted. The distinction between the relative pronouns that and which to introduce relative clauses is a frequent point of dispute. The relative pronoun that can only be used in nonrestrictive clauses. The use of ´that´ is more appropriate than which after the pronouns all, any(thing), every(thing), few, little, many, much, no(thing), more, none, any, anything, anybody, somebody, some(thing). Restrictive or essential adjective clauses offers essential information and is needed to complete the sentence's thought. They are closely connected with their heads. These clauses tell us which person or thing the speaker means. Respondido em 12/08/2021 20:25:05 Explicação: The information provided in: ´ Restrictive or essential adjective clauses offers essential information and is needed to complete the sentence's thought. They are closely connected with their heads. These clauses tell us which person or thing the speaker means.´ is adequate, since adjective clauses are a type of subordinate clauses that act as adjectives. An adjective clause is a dependent clause that, like an adjective, modifies a noun or pronoun. 5 Questão What would be the right way to join these sentences below ?: Mr. Wanderbilt whom I met at the theatre last night is a famous musician.

Among the important cultural ties within these Sephardic groups are Judeo-Spanish folktales, stories that have been passed down from generation to generation, either in the distinct language of the group, Judeo-Spanish (Ladino), or in other languages, such as Hebrew. In The Heart Is a Mirror, Tamar Alexander-Frizer examines the folk narratives of Sephardic Jews to view them both in relation to universal narrative traditions and the traditions of Jewish culture.

If the action described in the adverb clause precedes the action in the main clause, it is logical to place the adverb clause at the beginning of the sentence. Placing the adverb clause in the middle is regarded as an old fashionable use. An adverb clause commonly appears after the main clause. The adverb clause can only be used after the main clause. Adverb clauses ought not to be used in written language so as to avoid misunderstanding. Respondido em 12/08/2021 20:47:47 Explicação: The explanation is already clear. If the action described in the adverb clause precedes the action in the main clause, it is logical to place the adverb clause at the beginning of the sentence. 8 Questão What does the following adverbial clause indicate? She didn´t buy half so/as many shoes as she thought she would. Condition. Contrast. Purpose. Reason. Comparison. Respondido em 12/08/2021 20:48:29 Explicação: These clauses often answer How? followed by orimplying in relation to or compared with (How quick is he in relation to/compared with¿?).They involve the use of as + adjective + as (as quick as), not so/as ¿as, -er than. more¿ than, less¿ than, the¿ the. When continuing with the same verb in the same tense, we can omit the second verb, so the clause of comparison is implied. Adverbial clauses of comparison can involve the use of as (or so) much + noun + as and as many + noun + as. Words like half, nearly and nothing like will often combine with as or so.

In making his case, Zipes both considers a wide range of fascinating examples (including fairy tales told, collected, and written by women in the nineteenth century) and reflects upon Catherine Breillat's film adaptation of Perrault's "Bluebeard", contemporary fairy-tale drawings, paintings, sculptures, and photographs that critique canonical print versions. ► The highlighted elements in the text serve to exemplify the use of: The use of correlative conjunctions The use of conjunctions in adverbial clauses The use of subordinate clauses The use of elliptical clauses The use of conjunctions in adjective clauses Respondido em 16/08/2021 20:05:03 Explicação: The structure both (clause) ... and (clause) ... refers to correlative conjunctions. 4 Questão Read the text below: If there is one genre that has captured the imagination of people in all walks of life throughout the world, it is the fairy tale.

Read the following comments and choose the one which IS NOT appropriate. The main aim of the choice for a correlative conjunction is to emphasize the implicit idea given by this conjunction. An elliptical clause may be either independent or subordinate. Whenever there is a correlative conjunction, the clauses are going to be classified as correlative clauses according to this conjunction. Elliptical Clauses or Elliptical Constructions are some special clauses in English, in which certain words are omitted. Intercalated clauses are clauses which are separated from the rest of the paragraph by some kind of pause. In written, they are signaled by full stop, comma, dash, semicolon or parentheses.

Find the one which IS NOTappropriate. The words than and as when used in a comparison often introduce elliptical clauses. Words intentionally left out of clauses may be shown by the use of the appropriate punctuation. When you find than and as introducing an elliptical clause, one way to determine the correct pronoun is to finish the comparison that has been started. Example: Pat is much older than (he, him). A comma is not used when the missing words are clearly understood. An elliptical clause is just a clause (subject & predicate) where some part of the clause is implied rather than stated. In other words, part of the clause is invisible.

In this enthralling work, Maria Tatar challenges many of our assumptions about childhood reading. Much as our culture pays lip service to the importance of literature, we rarely examine the creative and cognitive benefits of reading from infancy through adolescence. By exploring how beauty and horror operated in C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia, Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials, J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter novels, and many other narratives, Tatar provides a delightful work for parents, teachers, and general readers, not just examining how and what children read but also showing through vivid examples how literature transports and transforms children with its intoxicating, captivating, and occasionally terrifying energy. In the tradition of Bruno Bettelheim's landmark The Uses of Enchantment, Tatar's book is not only a compelling journey into the world of childhood but a trip back for adult readers as well. ► The use of commas in the underlined passage was used with a view to: Separating a series phrases Separating sentences Separating a series of adjectives Separating a series of nouns Separating a series of clauses Respondido em 17/08/2021 15:31:52 Explicação: The passage comprises a series of noun phrases: [parents], [teachers], [general readers]. 8 Questão What is the difference in meaning between these pairs of sentences?
