Answer:

<u>TRUE</u>

Explanation:

We form the plural of nouns that end with a consonant + “y” by changing the “y” to “i” and adding “-es:” For example, <em>city - cities, lady - ladies, activity - activities</em>. The only exception is when creating the plural of proper nouns ending in consonant + “y” such as <em>Kennedy, </em>whose plural is<em> Kennedys</em>.

On the other hand, when a noun ends with a vowel + “y”, we form its plural adding an “s” only. For example, <em>monkey - monkeys, boy - boys, valley - valleys.</em>

1. Why are contemporary artists chosen to imitate?
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

Copying another artist's work can be a wonderful way to learn, get inspired, get ideas, honor an influence you love, and create something new. All art is a mash up of ideas, and we can all influence and inspire each other, so long as we are creating and sharing from a place of honesty and transparency.

A good artist simply copies another person's art. A great artist selectively takes (steals) elements from multiple sources and then creatively combines their influences to create something that is uniquely their own.
