<span>Proper adjectives have their initial letter capitalised, for example American - derived from a proper noun America - or Victorian - derived from (queen) Victoria.

Common adjectives, on the contrary, don't have </span><span>their initial letter capitalised</span>, for example green, empty, colourful. Just remember that "common adjective" is not a scientific term used by linguists, it is informal.

Answer:

<u>Proper adjectives have their initial letter capitalized</u>

Explanation:

Most adjectives used in writing and speech are common adjectives. Common adjectives are not capitalized. This is because they are everyday words, not derived from proper nouns. Proper adjectives are derived from proper nouns.

zalisa [80]

Answer:

1The art of letter writing seems to have declined sharply in recent years.

Shape and pattern type : the information has been organised in terms of cause-effect, however,  the topic sentence has the effect and the other sentences unfold the possible causes. This is a top down approach.

Explanation:

The  topic sentence holds the most important idea: the fact the art of writing has turned  rapidly into an activity from the past has been well noticed  in recent years: <em>effect.</em> Then, these are the possible <em>causes</em>: the high cost of stationary and postage; people's lack of time for writing; change of means of communicating with friends; and the instant access to friends and family members through other means of communication.

Can you use inquire on asking about a thing instead of a person?
swat32

Answer:

No, you can't use "inquire" like this. You could say:

"The enterprise asked the authority for the relevant information." -- This does not actually say that they obtained it, however. The authority may have refused. Note that you ask about a subject, but you ask for information.

"The enterprise obtained the relevant information from the authority." -- This normally implies that they obtained it in response to an inquiry or request, so you don't really need to say that separately
