A dictionary's primary purpose is to define words, but it can also offer details on pronunciation, grammatical structures, etymologies, syntactic quirks, alternative spellings, and antonyms.

You can find a list of terms that are alphabetically ordered in a "dictionary." There are pronunciation instructions and definitions for every word. Additionally, it contains some information about the word's history or current usage. Nowadays, the majority of people use dictionaries in electronic form, however others still like the book-style.

Therefore, don't be afraid to check up a word's definition in a dictionary if you don't know what it means.

A.) Read the beginning of Jason's argumentative speech on the use of Internet slang and answer the question.
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Which sentence would provide the best transition into the counterargument paragraph of this essay?

3. Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use.

Which revision would add supporting evidence to best strengthen Jason's claim?

2. Add this sentence to the above excerpt: Studies suggest that saving a few keystrokes can both reduce stress and lead to more productivity.

Explanation:

For the first question, we must first understand what Jason's claim is. That can be found at the end of his introductory paragraph:

"Internet slang is a manifestation of two more serious problems with modern society - intellectual laziness and too little time."

Now, we must find a sentence to introduce a counterargument. A counterargument is an idea that opposes the argument.<u> The argument claims that internet slang usage is a problem. The counterargument must state the contrary. The sentence that does that is number 3: "Many would argue that there is no harm in populating our communication with OMGs and LOLs given their widespread use." This sentence is basically stating that internet slang is not a problem.</u>

For the second question, we need to choose the option the adds supporting evidence to the excerpt. In other words, we choose the option that agrees with and complements the excerpt. <u>The excerpt states that slang makes communication easier. The only option that agrees with that is number 2. </u>All the other options offer information or present ideas that go against that opinion. <u>Sentence 2,</u> however,<u> explains that slang makes communication less stressful.</u>
