The best way to complete the sentence is "In written language, letters most closely represent phonemes, whereas sentences may be said to reflect syntax."

<h3>What are phonemes?</h3>

Phoneme can be defined as being the smallest unit of speech that allows us to notice the difference between words. For example, the word "tad" is different from "dad" because of a phoneme that distinguishes one from the other. In general, we can say that letters, in written language, are a close representation of phonemes. However, it is important to understand that some phonemes may be represented by a by a group of letters.

<h3>What is syntax?</h3>

We can define syntax as the structure or arrangement of words and phrases in a way that makes the message understandable. When a sentence is well organized, it is easier to comprehend, which means it has good syntax. In written language, syntax is reflected by sentences.

With the information above in mind, we can select option C as the correct answer for this question.

The complete question is the following:

In written language, letters most closely represent __________, whereas sentences may be said to reflect __________.

  • syntax; morphemes
  • syntax; phonemes
  • phonemes; syntax
  • phonemes; morphemes

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

You need to find <u>clues</u> from the text in order to make a prediction.

Explanation:

When we're reading a book, we can often catch ourselves wondering about what's going to happen next and trying to predict different things, such as what the book will be about, what the author is trying to tell us, what would happen next at the end of the book if it were to continue, etc.

Predicting requires us to:

  • find and use clues within the text, and
  • use what we already know from personal experience or knowledge.
