English
1 answer:
shutvik [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Ending a sentence with a preposition is believed by a lot of people to be incorrect.

Explanation:

Preposition is a word which is used to create a relationship between other words in a sentence. Ending a sentence with preposition according to John Dryden a dramatist in 1672 said that <em>'since one cannot end a sentence with preposition in Latin, one should not do it in English either."</em>

Ending a sentence with preposition such as 'at, or, with, of, is prohibited in English language. Ending a sentence with a preposition especially in research paper or business proposal, sounds less formal. Therefore it is a rule not to end a sentence with preposition.

Anyone down to write me a pear paragraph of king of shadows about the character Nat.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer and Explanation:

Nat is a boy who was invited by a theater director to become a member of a theater group that presents Shakesperian plays. Nat accepts the invitation and ends up acting in "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and "Julio Cesar" where he proved to be a very talented and promising actor. However, one day, when he returned home, he felt extremely ill, feverish and sick. He ended up sleeping in his room and was transported through time, waking up in Elizabethan England. On this journey through time, he ends up meeting Shakespeare who is very surprised by his acting ability and invites him to be a member of his theater group. Nat lives very unique and fun moments in Elizabethan England, but in the blink of an eye he is transported back to the future, where he wakes up in a hospital bed, not sure if he really traveled in time, or just had a fever dream.

Nat is the main character of "King Of Shadows" that tells of his adventures as an actor of the Shakespeare Theater company, in the beginnings of the British theater.
