What's the difference between a sentence fragment and comma splice

English
1 answer:
quester [9]1 year ago
7 0

Answer:

A sentence fragment is a group of words used as a sentence that lacks a crucial element that makes it an incomplete thought

A comma splice on the other hand is a mistake when two independent clauses are spliced together with only a comma.

2. The setting of the story is very limited; it is confined largely to a room, a staircase, and a front
Mrac [35]

Answer: The limited set of the story may be viewed in relation to the trials and tribulations that Mrs. Mallard possibly endured throughout her marriage to Brently Mallard.  The staircase may signify the “ups and downs” encountered by Mrs. Mallard; it could also represent her path to freedom as she walks toward them to descend to victory.  The room could represent the “box” encapsulating a person that suffers from depression or anxiety, with the window located inside the room representing the happiness that seems unattainable even though it is visible.  I could equate the door to a possible exit from the situation or an object, whether physical or mental, that kept Mrs. Mallard “locked in” and unable to reach the happiness that waited outside.  I was able to associate the set to the apparent despair, excitement and eventual heart-break that was experienced by Mrs. Mallard as she learned of her husband’s death, into the jubilation of being “free” and finally to her demise as she watched her husband walk through the door

Which ballad convention does Dudley Randall use in “Ballad of Birmingham”?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer: The right answer is the C) Using an innocent questioner and a wise respondent.

Explanation: It must be stressed that options B and D are wrong, since this ballad uses the verse format (with a <em>abcb </em>rhyme scheme) and its subject matter is definitely not a celebration, but a very tragical event - the death of a child in the bombing of a church in Birmingham, Alabama, in 1963. Ballads do feature a question-answer format, which helps to build up suspense and maintain the reader's interest and engagement. In this particular example, the innocent questioner is a small child, and the wise respondent is his mom, who attempts, to no avail, to dissuade him from attending the Freedom March.

Wrie a letter to a close friend of yours, intimating him of the career you have chosen , why you have chosen the career and what
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Hey!

So you asked what I wanted as my career? Well, I want to be a nurse. An LVN to be exact. LVNs work in medical settings next to doctors and registered nurses, performing tasks like taking blood pressure, changing bandages and maintaining patients’ health records. Making a difference in people's lives is what I want to do and doing schooling for it seems very simple. In studying to be an LVN, I will be able to complete my education and prepare for a career in a shorter period of time. Most LVN programs can be completed in 12 and 20 months, where other nursing education programs can take more than twice that time to finish. What about you? What did you want to be when you're older? Write me back soon!
