Conflict is a predictable part of virtually all relationships. It can also be a significant source of stress. Therefore, with most conflicts, it’s important to find a resolution. This seems like a statement of the obvious, but many people suppress their anger or just ‘go along to get along.' They think that by addressing a conflict, they are creating one, and simply keep quiet when upset. Unfortunately, this isn’t a healthy long-term strategy. For one thing, unresolved conflict can lead to resentment and additional unresolved conflict in the relationship. Even more important, ongoing conflict can actually have a negative impact on your health and longevity. (See this piece for more on the detrimental effects of relationship conflict.)
This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
Identify the word the underlined appositive or appositive phrase in the following sentence modifies.
Vanessa’s dog, <u>a black Labrador retriever</u>, won the blue ribbon at the show
Answer: Vanessa’s dog
Explanation:
An appositive noun or noun phrase presents information that better defines a different noun or noun phrase.
As long as the appositive is restrictive, meaning that provides fundamental information, the appositive noun or noun phrase should be enclosed by commas.
In this example, the appositive phrase a black Labrador retriever provides information that helps better identify the sentence’s subject noun, Vanessa’s dog.
Yes the sentence is correct
