liq [111]3 years ago
8 0

The word sabbatical was derived from the Latin word sabbaticus and from the Greek word sabbatikos. 

It  was used in the Mosaic law to  relate to the seventh year in which land was to remain  untilled  and all debtors and slaves released from debt and slave status respectively. The Mosaic law came into being 430 years after the Jews first went to sojourn as community in Egypt.

This word is also a noun which relates to a year's absence granted to researchers and university  professors from around 1934 but was first recorded as such in 1886 at Havard University having been attested at the university in 1880.

What is an example of a parallel plot in Hansel and Gretel. This is english 2 grade 10
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Gretel's courage and the tale of the white bird is an example of parallel plot.

Explanation:

Gretel is always courageous enough to calm down and calm down Hansel, even though he knows they are in a difficult situation. As the birds ate the bread crumbs they put in the forest to get home, they were stuck in the forest and were hungry, but Gretel was brave enough to look for food and when they were almost giving up they heard a song of white birds, if it was a call to follow you. The bird song and Gretel's courage are an example of parallel plot.

Parallel Plot occurs when the writer mixes two plots at a single point. In this way the two plots walk around the same theme.
