Read the passage from The Importance of Being Earnest.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

“whose origin was a Terminus.“

Explanation:

Paradox is a contradictory assertion itself or contradictory to our expectations.

In the given example, two important words that make this paradox are origin and terminus. Origin, we can say, a start position, a position where something starts or is coming from, or develop from it. Terminus is the end of a bus or a train line, the last station, so generally the outermost point.

Pun is a wordplay that has an intentional humorous effect.

So, the excerpt <em>“whose origin was a Terminus.“ </em>is both paradox and a pun.

My family left the fair at 8:00, so we missed the fireworks display.
dolphi86 [110]

Hey there!

Answer:

Compound

Explanation:

It contains a main clause (My family left the fair at 8:00) a conjunction(so) and another main clause (we missed the fireworks display).So it's a compound sentence.

-It can't be a <em>simple</em><em> </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>because it has a subordinate clause.

-It can't be a <em>compound Complex </em><em>sentence</em><em> </em>because it only has 1 main clause and not 2.

-It can't be a complex sentence since it doesn't have a subordinate clause.

Definitions:

A <em>simple sentence</em> has 1 main clause.e.g. The boys fought.

A <em>compound sentence</em> has two main clause E.g. Peter went to the mall and he returned late.

A <em>compound conplex</em> has 2 or more main clauses and 1 or more subordinate clause.E.g. Jude travelled and she brought her cousin to live with her.

A <em>complex sentence</em> has a main clause and a subordinate clause.E.g. The boy bumped into the table and he fell onto the floor.

Note:

A <em>main clause</em> is a group of words that can stand on its own whilst a subordinate clause can't as it doesn't represent a complete idea.

Hope this helps!

nope

depends on the ritual, for example: if it was a pagan ritual I'd be OK with it but if it's a satanic ritual I probably wouldn't be cool with it but I like to keep an open mind
