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

How does the sentence contribute to the main idea of paragraph one? (4 points)
julsineya [31]

Answer:The topic sentence is normally the first sentence in a paragraph. This sentence gives the reader an idea of what is coming up in the paragraph, and it is normally the most general of the paragraph’s sentences. There won’t be a whole lot of detail in this sentence, but it is there to introduce the main idea.The body sentences (or supporting sentences) reinforce the topic sentence by fleshing out the details. If something in the body sentences does not support your paragraph, it needs to go somewhere else in the article probably in a new paragraph. If your topic sentence is the “what” of your paragraph, the body sentences are the “whys.”The concluding sentence is not always necessary, but if you have a longer paragraph, it is something that should be included. The concluding sentence will summarize your topic sentence and reinforce it.
