English

Alja [10]2 years ago

The sentence that uses a colon correctly is:

  • Rose and her friends played: Bridge, Canasta, Poker, and Rummy

<h3>What is the correct use of the colon?</h3>

When writers wish to introduce a list, a proper symbol they can use is the colon. In the sentence above, the purpose of the colon can be seen clearly. Here we can see a list of the names of four kinds of games Rose and her friends engaged in.

A reader can thus see the names of the games and identify them with ease. There are other uses of the colon. The colon can be used in headlines to differentiate different parts of the sentence.

The colon can also be used in dialogues between two or more persons. Another use of the colon is that of emphasizing the main point.

For the text provided above, option A accurately describes a function of the colon.

Use the meanings of the prefixes sur- and dis- to explain the difference between surmounted and dismounted.
leonid [27]
The prefix 'dis' means apart, away; that is to move away from something while the prefix 'sur' means over, above.
To dismount means to get off something or to remove a thing from its support. For example: The king dismounted the horse majestically.
To surmount means to overcome a difficulty or an obstacle. For example: 
All the political differences between the two countries were surmounted.
