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.

Does this poem sound good or bad?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Just add proper grammar!

Explanation:

Look, it's a great poem don't get me wrong.

But proper punctuation and grammar is always a little bit more attractive and appealing to our eyes.

Let me run my eyes over it really quick and make any adjustments.

Final Draft:

Roses are red, violets are blue, The way you smile makes me swoon. Your eyes are bright, your eyes they are, but I know you shall never be mine. The days are gray, the days are sad, on the day that you have passed I wish I could tell you how I feel but you would only think of me as unreal. So today, as I weep, knowing you love me, I can finally get some sleep.

Glad I could help!!

Which statement is a theme that could be found in a literary text?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

(C) look before you leap

Step-by-step explanation:

A theme is the moral or the lesson of the story.

(A) many animal around the world are dangerous is not a theme because it's not teaching me anything, so it is a opinion.

(B) all runners are very athletic is not a theme either because it doesn't teaches me anything, so it is a opinion as well.

(C) Look before you leap is a theme because it is teaching me to be careful.

(D) courage means to be brave is not a theme because it isn't even telling me a lesson even though it's saying a fact but not a lesson.
