English

scoray [572]1 year ago
7 0

An acronym is a word created by condensing letters from words in a phrase (often the first beginning of each word) into a single term. NASA is an example of an acronym (an acronym for National Aeronautics and Space Administration)

Although the term's original meaning, which includes words pronounced like letters, is occasionally disputed, it is also the one that is most frequently used. Editors of style manuals and dictionaries do not always agree on the proper names for these abbreviations, and there is some debate over whether the term "acronym" can be used to refer to abbreviations that are not pronounced "as words." These language authorities also disagree on how to properly use punctuation, spacing, and capitalization.

Sometimes more formally referred to as initialisms or alphabetisms, abbreviations created from a series of initials and typically spoken as individual letters

What are examples of author's craft in The Illustrated Man?
mezya [45]

Bradbury has a straightforward writing style that seeks to evoke a sense of wonder through two seemingly opposed concerns: the careful construction of mundane details and a sharp eye for vividly capturing imaginative flights of fancy. Combined, they create Bradbury's signature style, finding wonder in everyday life by using fantastic / unrealistic elements to highlight the vagaries of human nature. Often, this means the stories are built on simply constructed sentences --declarative, often distanced from the subject it describes - with dramatically timed lapses into a more florid, poetic writing style when a character comes to grips with a new experience, such as the rocket flight of "The Rocket".

Q 10. Change direct speech to indirect speech.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

1. He said that he never makes mistakes.

2. John said he loved that town.

3. She said that she always wakes up early.

4. They asked to be let inside. or They asked to come inside.

Explanation:

To change a speech from the direct form to indirect form requires the change in the structure of the sentence and also in the tenses accordingly. Moreover, the quotation marks and other signifiers of a direct quoted speech are removed, replaced with the words such as "said that" asked that" and so on.

The given sentences in their indirect forms are as follows-

<u><em>1. He said that he never makes mistakes. </em></u>

<u><em>2. John said he loved that town. </em></u>

<u><em>3. She said that she always wakes up early. </em></u>

<u><em>4. They asked to be let inside. or They asked to come inside.</em></u>
