<u>Evolution of Punctuation:</u>

  • Punctuations are the marks such a comma, exclamation, semi colon, question mark that we use while writing.
  • Incorrect usage of punctuation mark can totally change the meaning of a sentence.
  • Over the last few years punctuation has evolved a lot. People no more make proper use of punctuation marks, or rather they don’t use if all at.
  • For example: Emoji are widely used amongst youngsters and even by many writers. They don’t really make use of exclamation, rather they will make use of surprised or any other relevant emoji.
  • Apart from this, the use of apostrophe and hyphens are also reduced. Instead of writing aren’t, they simply write aren’t; E-mail is written as email.
  • There are many more such examples of the evolution of punctuations.

Excerpt from: The Story of an HourKate ChopinHe had only taken the time (2) to assure himself of it’s truth by a second telegram
Tju [1.3M]

B) to assure himself of its truth

The options given have you take a closer look at the words it's and himself. Option C changes "himself" to "hisself". "Hisself" is never correct. This means we have to decide if the correct answer is "its" or "it's". "Its", without an apostrophe, is the possessive form showing ownership. "It's", with an apostrophe, is a contraction meaning "it is". Let's plug them into the sentence "of it is truth" does not make any sense. Can "it" own truth? Yes, so "its" is the correct answer.

Write a story about a character who undergoes a change
timurjin [86]

Once upon a time there was a little boy named Charles that lived in Alaska. This boy had lots of friends there and he thought that Alaska was the best place in the world.

One day, Charles and his family had to move, since his parents couldn't find a place to work. They moved to a horrible, but cheap house in North Dakota. Charles wanted to cry. He missed all of his friends, and he didn't like North Dakota.

One day, Charles had an idea to go back to Alaska. He decided that he was going to rob a bank that night so he could recuperate the money to return to Alaska.

That night, Charles was starting his plan. When he got to the gates of the bank, he was prepared to shoot everywhere and kill many people. But after the first shoot to nowhere, three security guards caught him, and when Charles wanted to shoot them too, he realized that he didn't have any bullets left. So, the security guards shot Charles 1,000 times and he died horribly.

Never be too greedy. If you are you may have to pay back for it.

Please give me a funny speech that is original and reaches up to a reading time of 2 mins. Tysm :)​
Leto [7]

Answer:

My fellow homosapiens, I think cats should be considered emotional disordered dogs. I think this because cats act like dogs but more emotionally and you can tell by the way they walk. They walk with grace. They also jump with grace. They fall with grace. Dogs can do that but less emotionally and cuter. Cats even get scared with grace like dogs do. Both of them make a beautiful screech as they either fly through the air or flipping all over the place. Cats can also be considered dogs because all they want is to lay around or food. My dear fellow homosapiens I hope you reconsidered this informational important speech and choose to follow this decision. Thank you for summoning me my child.
