kobusy [5.1K]
Agamemnon was the leader of the Greek troops in the Trojan wars and Orestes was his son. When Agamemno returned from the war, he was murdered by his wife's lover in conjunction with his wife. Orestes could not stop them but he seeked vengeance for his father. After a long time, he found them and avenged his father while killing them. He killed his mother, but Greek mythology claims that his act was just and he was spared the remorse and the guilt. There are a lot of similarities with the Ulysses/Telemachus father son pair. Ulysses was also one of the leaders of the excursion to Troy. He still has not returned home, but in a sense the suitors of Penelope are marring his estate and his reputation. While Penelope is faithful to Ulysses, the suitors by taking hold of the palace and committing their shameful acts are dishonoring Ulysses. In the same context, Telemachus is asked just like Orestes to restitute his father's honor, regardless of whether he is alive or dead. Athena is helping him and encouraging him with this example and he himself feels the need to save his father's honor.

A sequence of words forms a
Vlad [161]

Answer:

Phrase, Idiom or Sentence

Explanation:

A sequence of words that form a meaning can be a phrase, idiom or a sentence.

A phrase is a group of words that form a meaning. It can be a combination of a preposition and a noun, or an adjective and a noun. <em>Prepositional phrase</em> is for example "in the air", and an <em>adjectival phrase</em> is "a beautiful girl".

An idiom is a phrase that when formed, changes the meaning of the words in a phrase. For example,<em> "It's raining cats and dogs".</em> This sentence doesn't mean that literally cats and dogs fall from the sky, but it has a different meaning, which is <em>"It is heavily raining." </em>

A sentence is a group of words that must consist of at least subject and a verb, which can be followed by other words or phrases. For example, a phrase is <em>"a beautiful girl"</em> - it cannot be a sentence because it doesn't have a verb. If we say <em>"A beautiful girl is here."</em> - we make a sentence, because now it has a <em>subject (A beautiful girl), a verb (is) and a preposition of place (here). </em>
