Which choice shows the proper way to use a colon?

English
2 answers:
KiRa [710]3 years ago
8 0

The correct answer is "I have one problem with the ski trip this weekend: I can’t ski!". A colon means "that is to say" or "here's what I mean." Colons and semicolons should never be used interchangeably. There are three main uses of the colon:

  • to introduce a list
  • before a quotation, and sometimes before direct speech
  • between two main clauses in cases where the second clause explains or follows from the first

The correct answer is the fourth option. The other three are grammatically incorrect.

PLS HELP ASAP THIS IS DUE TODAY. Write a sonnet about nature .​
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

(NOT MY SONNET)

Explanation:

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature’s changing course, untrimm’d;

But thy eternal summer shall not fade

Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow’st;

Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st;

So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

A flagged word is one that is misspelled. (Points : 2) True False
Nastasia [14]
I think the correct answer is false. A flagged word is not the one that is misspelled. It does not necessarily indicate a misspelled word. It just means that the word is not in  the dictionary. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
