What is a dead language?? What is language change?? How do historical linguists edit a dead language

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

Dead language is the term used to describe a language that no longer has native speakers, even though it is possible to study it and have knowledge of its grammar and vocabulary. However, as there are no native speakers, the study of pronunciation is weakened.

Language change, on the other hand, is the term that refers to changes made to a language over time. This is a common characteristic of a living language, which changes and evolves as its society advances.

Editing a dead language is usually done by comparing other related languages and by sound patterns.

Which line from Edgar Allan Poe's "Annabel Lee" contains alliteration?
Annabel Lee
by Edgar Allan Poe
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom
you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
/was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea,
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee-
With a love that the winged seraphs of Heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsmen came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in Heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!-that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
A
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

Which excerpts from Queen Elizabeth's Response to Parliament's Request That She Marry rely on a rhetorical appeal to logos to persuade her audience that even if she produced an heir it would not guarantee England's prosperity or safety? Select two options.

A. I give you all my hearty thanks for the good zeal and loving care you seem to have.
B. You may well assure yourselves, my meaning is not to determine any thing.
C. I always continued in this determination, although my youth and words may seem to some hardly to agree together, yet is it most true.
D. The realm shall not remain destitute of any heir that may be a fit governour, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm.
E. For though I be never so careful of your well-doing, and mind ever so to be, yet may my issue grow out of kind, and become perhaps ungracious.

please answer if you confirmed actually got it correct on test.

Answers

Answer:D. The realm shall not remain destitiute of any heir that may be a fit governour, and peradventure more beneficial to the realm.

E. For though I be never so careful of your well doing and mind ever so be, yet may my issue grow out of kind and perhaps become ungracious.

Explanation:

From the selected options, while Queen Elizabeth is mindful of the need for a royal heir, she states any offer spring by her will not prevent calamities upon England.

The two excerpts from Queen Elizabeth's Response to Parliament's Request are in options D & E. Hence, Options (D) & (E) are correct.

Queen Elizabeth asserts that the realm will not be left without a suitable heir who can govern and potentially benefit the country.

By emphasizing the availability of capable successors, she implies that the mere act of producing an heir does not guarantee England's prosperity or safety.

This logical reasoning challenges the assumption that her marriage and producing an heir are necessary for the welfare of the realm.

Queen Elizabeth employs logos by stating that even if she is diligently concerned about the well-being of her people and intends to continue doing so, there is a possibility that her issue (offspring) could deviate from expected behavior or become ungracious.

Thus, this line of reasoning suggests that simply having an heir does not guarantee the desired outcome for England's future.

That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet; The purpose of this speech is to illustrate Juliet's

Answers

Answer: Juliet’s love for Romeo in spite of his family name

Explanation:

Based on the information in the scene, it basically implies that the names given to things or people should not define what those things are or what people are.

The Montagues, are enemies of the family of the Capulets, yet their children fell in love. It's basically saying their names shouldn't define them or change how they feel about each other.

Therefore, the purpose of the speech was to illustrate Juliet’s love for Romeo in spite of his family name.

The king cobra instantly turned its head toward me and flared its hood. Was it about to strike? The interesting thing about the king cobra is that it is the smartest snake on earth. It can see 330 feet, and its venom contains powerful neurotoxins.

Is this passage foreshadowing or change in pacing ?????

Answers

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

This passage is a change in pacing because after the text says "The king cobra instantly turned its head toward me and flared its hood. Was it about to strike?" it suddenly change the continuity of the action and refers to some characteristics of the cobra.

It could have been "foreshadowing" if the text would have continued the original narrative of the preparation for the attack, until describing the attack or not.

However, the text changed in pacing when it wrote: "The interesting thing about the king cobra is that it is the smartest snake on earth. It can see 330 feet, and its venom contains powerful neurotoxins. This new information about the cobra's characteristics changed the narrative.

"Texting while driving is never safe," Sanchez says ([italics added]). K. Jones's first novel (Blue Sky [B&R Press, 1995]) was a runaway success.

Answers

Answer:

1. The work indeed sold at auction [although the winning bid [$150] was low].

2. The meeting (facilitated by Jessa (first half) and Ravi (second half)) was on Tuesday.

Explanation: Parentheses are used to add extra information to a text. The sentence: "The meeting (facilitated by Jessa (first half) and Ravi (second half)) was on Tuesday" uses parentheses correctly since the extra information, If taken out, would still make sense.

Brackets are used exclusively to quote something. The sentence: "The work indeed sold at auction [although the winning bid [$150] was low]", used brackets correctly since the information inside is someone's opinion, instead of a fact.
