in what way is the concept of no taxation without representation central to americas identity as a nation

English

The English Parliament had controlled colonial trades, imports and exports since the beginning. But the americans weren't represented in the Parliament, so this went against the Bill of Rights of 1689, which forbid the imposition of taxes without the Parliament's approval. The increasing imposition of taxes in the second half of 18th century harmed the colonies' trade and economy, paying for wars on the other side of the Atlantic that had very little to do with them. So, they denied to keep paying for taxes unless they got direct representation in the Parliament. With this, the inhabitants of the colonies were claiming their equality with the inhabitants of the metropolis. It eventually led to the American Revolution, since the English government refused to listen to the colonies' demands.

The notion of "no taxation without representation" tied the colonies together against a common enemy, setting the foundations of what it would become the United States of America.

Whats a prefix for polite
Nat2105 [25]

There is only one prefix that is correct to be put at the beginning of the word ‘polite.’ That is the prefix ‘im-’, which forms this word to be ‘impolite.’

 

EXPLANATION:

A prefix is a letter or set of letters that is attached at the beginning of a word (or root of the word) which partially shows its meaning. For instance, the word prefix starts with the prefix ‘pre-’, which commonly means " in front of" or “before." (Instead, a letter or set of letters attached to the end of a word is known as a suffix.)

 

Many English words today comprise Greek or Latin’s prefix. Grasping the meanings of the most frequent prefixes can support to deduce the definition of the new word encountered in reading, specifically understanding that the prefixes can make the opposite meaning of the words, like the difference between impossible and possible.

 

The same prefix can be brought in more than one style (pre- and pro-, for example), and several prefixes (like in-) have more than one value of meaning (in this case, "in" or " to" versus “no" or "without"). Even so, being capable to identify the prefix can help to build a vocabulary repertoire.

 

Rules vary about when a word must have a hyphen splitting it from its prefix. There are particular style guides are used, like Chicago Manual of Style, MLA, or APA, the stylebook can have a guide of hyphenation or a favored dictionary to obey which words to be hyphenated and which words to close up. If the prefix is connected to the proper noun, sometimes it is usually a hyphen, like anti-American or pre-World War II.
