What does the root fort for the word fortify mean?

1 answer:

5 0

The word fortify means to strengthen or protect.

Break and suffer are complete antonyms of these definitions, so those are incorrect.

Move isn't correct either since when you think of the actual word "fort," you usually think of a secure building to keep people safe, so that's false.

But "strong" is correct. I believe the Latin root of "fort" means "Strong" so this would be the right answer! :)

Answer: Relative clause is "that are not registered." It is essential to the meaning of the sentence and, therefore, does not require commas.

Explanation:

A clause that starts with a relative pronoun (who, that, which, whose, where, when) is called a relative clause. The purpose of these clauses is to provide more information about the noun that precedes them. In this case, relative clause "that are not registered" is used to describe the noun "cars." It is essential to the meaning of the sentence, since it tells us which cars in particular will be towed to the nearest impound lot. If a clause provides important information, it is considered essential and does not require commas.
