English
2 answers:
Fynjy0 [20]1 year ago
5 0

The sentence that incorrectly uses a hyphen is:

  • Be sure to get to the fair early; the later it gets, the more-crowded it is.

<h3>What is a hyphen?</h3>

A hyphen is a symbol that looks like a dash but is used to separate complex words. In the list of options provided we see the use of hyphens in separating complex words. However, the second sentence uses the hyphen in an incorrect manner.

There is no need to separate more and crowded. These are two distinct words that do not form a complex word. The best thing to do is to leave them as individual words. So we can say that option B makes use of the hyphen in a wrong manner.

What technique is used in this phrase?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

Metaphor

<h2>What is a metaphor?</h2>

A figure of speech in which a term or phrase is applied to something to which it is not literally applicable in order to suggest a resemblance, as in "A mighty fortress is our God."

In the sentence, "My son is a greyhound out of the blocks when it's hometime," the son is being compared to this because of how fast he runs to get home.  

Hence, the technique used in the phrase, "My son is a greyhound out of the blocks when it's hometime" is a metaphor.
