English

Answer:

"Dun" refers to grayish-brown color; Shakespeare uses this word to describe women's breasts the way they are, with all the imperfections she has, without creating a typical model of female beauty.

"Damask'd" refers to velvety pink scented damask rose; the poet uses this word to say that his mistress doesn't have rosy cheeks as damask roses in the garden and continues with a realistic description of her body.

Explanation:

In his "Sonnet 130", Shakespeare uses these two words to highlight the contrast between the typical model of female beauty and a realistic description of his beloved one. With this sonnet, he tries to explain that our beloved one does not have to be perfect to draw our attention and make us fall in love with him/her.

Use the drop-down menus to indicate whether each sentence is in the subjunctive mood. I would go for a walk, if it were not rain
Vika [28.1K]
Subjunctive mood is used to express wishes and possibilities, whereas on the other hand, indicative mood is used for facts. So let's go through all of these sentences:
1. I would go for a walk if it weren't raining - this is subjunctive. The form <em>weren't </em>used as a possibility is indicative of subjunctive mood. This person <em>wishes </em>he could go for a walk, but cannot because it is raining

2. I wish you continued at your job - this is also subjunctive. The form <em>continued is </em>is indicative of subjunctive mood. This person <em>wishes </em>something happened, but it didn't.

3. Brett wants Molly and Trent to study with him. - this is indicative. It is a fact that this person wants, so this is not subjunctive.

4. Coach recommends that we run two laps around the track. - this is subjunctive. The coach <em>wishes </em>something would happen - he is going to make his students to what he wishes them to do. 

With verbs such as recommend, wish, suggest, demand, etc., subjunctive mood is used.
