Answer:

Shakespeare makes certain lines within his plays seem more important than others By having some lines contain more than 10 syllables

Explanation:

William Shakespeare used a technique in composition that many writers use in order to give emphasis to some expressions from their characters and make them immediately more relevant than others, this is due to the rhythm in the sound of the lines as you read them, the rhythm of a line either if it is shorter or longer than others makes it more visible and memorable from the rest.

Write a research paper about Samuel Johnson’s A Dictionary of the English Language.
9966 [12]

Answer:

Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language is one of the most famous dictionaries in history. First published in 1755, the dictionary took just over eight years to compile, required six helpers, and listed 40,000 words. Each word was defined in detail, the definitions illustrated with quotations covering every branch of learning. It was a huge scholarly achievement, a more extensive and complex dictionary than any of its predecessors – the comparable French Dictionnaire had taken 55 years to compile and required the dedication of 40 scholars.

A group of London booksellers first commissioned Johnson’s dictionary, as they hoped that a book of this kind would help stabilize the rules governing the English language. In the preface to the book, Johnson explains how he had found the language to be ‘copious without order, and energetic without rules. In his view, English was in desperate need of some discipline: ‘wherever I turned my view … there was perplexity to be disentangled, and confusion to be regulated’. However, in the process of compiling the dictionary, Johnson recognized that language is impossible to fix because of its constantly changing nature, and that his role was to record the language of the day, rather than to form it.

Johnson details how languages change over time. However much the lexicographer may want to fix or 'embalm' his language, new words, phrases, and pronunciations are constantly appearing, whether brought from abroad by merchants and travelers, extracted from the workrooms of geometricians, and physicians or found in the minds of poets.

In all, there are over 114,000 quotations in the dictionary. Johnson was the first English lexicographer to use citations in this way, a method that greatly influenced the style of future dictionaries. He had scoured books stretching back to the 16th century, often quoting from those thought to be 'great works, such as poems by Milton or plays by Shakespeare. Therefore the quotations reflect his distinct literary taste and political views. And yet, if Johnson didn't like a quotation, or if a phrase didn't convey the exact meaning he required, he did not hesitate to chop, twist around, or rewrite a few words – Johnson famously scribbled all over his books, underlining, highlighting, altering and correcting the words.

CAN SOMEONE PLZ ANSWER THIS 50 POINTS
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

It depends on the matter, such as how Susan B Anthony broke the law of being a woman voting in my eyes such thing is silly to be a law and to be arrested for, other matters such as murder, theft, and plenty of other things should never be okay to break the law for. I would only break the law over things I feel is ridiculous and it should be done such as what Susan did when she voted, I would've also voted as a woman because she did nothing wrong in my opinion. I may not have much personal experience so let's instead look at Rosa Parks who was arrested because she wouldn't give her seat up to a white person, heck I most certainly would not have to, when Rosa broke that "law" of not getting off her seat for the white person she did nothing wrong in that act but was still arrested for it and again in my eyes she did not do anything wrong by breaking that law.
