What does the structure of the word altruistic tell the reader about this meaning

English
1 answer:
Natalka [10]3 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

The word altruistic comes from the word altruism and suffix - tic. The word altruism means  the principle and concern for other human's happiness. It is a selfless concern for the welfare of others. The term denotes a life attitude that includes selflessness, affection, love for another, and willingness to help another, at the cost of personal harm and sacrifice, without any compensation or outward reward. Altruism comes from the French word autrui, which means "other people".

The suffix -tic is used in adjectives of Greek origin, especially in the formation of adjectives from nouns.

The structure tells the reader that it is adverb that means helping and loving another human being. To be altruistic means to feel empathy for another and help and to love.

How is shakespeare tension through scene two?
vfiekz [6]

This is an extremely dramatic scene and Shakespeare sets the stage for the bloody murder with the "owl that shriek'd, the fatal bellman," as even nature cries out against the murder of Duncan. Lady Macbeth fears that the murder is unaccomplished, yet when Macbeth enters, he says, "I have done the deed." Suspense is heightened here by the quick exchange of dialogue between husband and wife:

"Did you not speak?" 

"When?"

"Now."

"As I descended?"

Which statement is true about the laws that were passed by state and local governments, especially in the South, after the Civil
Alik [6]

The correct answer is C; They worked to keep black people and white people apart in many situations.

Further Explanation:

The Jim Crow laws were passed after slavery was abolished and after the Civil War ended. The laws were only passed in the Southern states and they did this so that they could be superior to the black men and women.

Even though slavery was over, with these laws being passed, black people were once again being segregated in the South. They had to ride separate buses, use separate water fountains, attend black only schools, and use black only bathrooms in public. The men in charge did their best to enforce the Jim Crow laws.
