Hi,

"Punitive" can mean a punishment or disciplinary action, but there are also other meanings.

Lelechka [254]
<span>Demonstrative: Hand me [those] papers. (Me is also an objective pronoun)
Reflexive: They call [themselves] The Ambassadors. (They is also a nominative pronoun)
Indefinite: Has [anyone] seen Tim?
Interrogative: [What] did you say? (You is also a nominative pronoun)

Nominative: [We] won the game.  
Objective: The first team beat [us].
Possessive: Tom, [whose] turn it is, will speak. (It is also a nominative pronoun)

Possessive pronouns are: my, mine, his, her, hers, their, theirs, our, ours, your, yours. Whose owns the turn and refers to Tom.Objective pronouns are the object of the sentence. They receive the action. In the sentences above, us receives the action of being beaten.Demonstrative pronouns refer to a very specific thing. In the example, the speaker is asking for a specific set of papers. The example is also using the demonstrative pronoun as an adjective to describe which papers.Indefinite pronouns refer to a wide array of nouns. They do not talk about a specific person or thing.Nominative pronouns are the subject of the sentence. They do the action.Interrogative pronouns are pronouns that help ask questions. Think interrogation. During an interrogation many interrogative pronouns are used.Reflexive pronouns refer back to a noun or pronoun. A few examples are: themselves, itself, myself, himself, herself, ourselves.Relative pronouns introduce a relative clause. In a sentence the relative clause modifies a word in the main clause. In this example, the cat is modified by the clause “that followed me home” to tell which cat the speaker is referring to. <span>

Write an essay on war and peace in about 150 words.​
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

According to Wikipedia "War is an intense armed conflict between states, governments, societies, or paramilitary groups such as mercenaries, insurgents, and militias. It is generally characterized by extreme violence, aggression, destruction, and mortality, using regular or irregular military forces. "

Peace is "... a concept of societal friendship and harmony in the absence of hostility and violence. In a social sense, peace is commonly used to mean a lack of conflict and freedom from fear of violence between individuals or groups."

In conclusion War and peace are opposites of each other and barely ever go well together in most cases.There are wars for peaces in many aspects and peace for war in others.For example a war to free women and children while making gender something that doesn’t mater, peace treaties and peace contracts to restrain any sort of war or disturbances in a certain place or country at any point.
